A Mild Case of Dead
The unseen toll of America's obsession with health, fitness, and weight loss

A Mild Case of Dead examines the folly of pursuing greater satisfaction in life through the goals of health, fitness, and weight loss. It occurs to us as logical to seek these qualities as a way to be more satisfied with our lives, but the human design is to be more satisfied with life first. When you’re guided by humanity instead of logic your physical state becomes a byproduct of that satisfaction, not the way to it. Written and narrated by the holder of 4 of the nation’s most prestigious fitness certifications, coach to professional athletes, and owner of an active west coast health club, the book explains why the author chose to abandon this work and close his gym forever. He realized that the issues that cause people to pursue health and fitness strategies are never resolved with the minutiae of programs or routines or diets because they are internal struggles first.The natural way to be satisfied with your body is to be satisfied with your life. Any other process is only a theory about life, not the real thing.
