Synopsis

A breakout training and fitness audiobook by Hollywood trainer and former Navy SEAL, Duffy Gaver, featuring the tried and true workouts used by movie stars like Chris Pratt and Brad Pitt.

Former Marine sniper and ex-navy Seal, Duffy Gaver is the unsung hero of Hollywood. As a master trainer to the stars, he has transformed the bodies of actors such as Chris Hemsworth, Chris Pratt, Scarlett Johanson, Brad Pitt and many others. He is a Hero-Maker. Duffy is the owner of his own gym in Santa Monica. He gets the most out of his clients by making them rethink their lives. For Duffy, the fitness industry sells a myth: it's all about the latest and greatest fads. Back in 1965, Larry Scott won the first Mr. Olympia. There was no Nike. No thermogenic products. No supplement industry. How did he do it then? With his will, his discipline, his desire. The things that big businesses can't manufacture. The first four minute mile, the first iron man triathlon, and the first world's strongest man all took place before 99% of today's companies even existed. What does this prove? None of this stuff is necessary.

Inside Hero Maker, Duffy Gaver shares the knowledge and motivational sit-downs that get his stars to take hold of their own bodies. None of these stars bought their way to their impressive physiques; they earned it with old fashioned work and dedication. He will tell you what you need to do to look super heroic, and he will show you how you too can do this if you put yourself to the task. Inside, you will also find some of his game-changing workouts to help get you there.

Not bad - the info found in the book is spot on. Ditto for the disclaimers - you can't go into this advanced in age and 200 pounds overweight and expect to look like Thor in 12 weeks. The author goes to great lengths to temper expectations and implores the reader to be realistic. He also rails again......more

Five stars from me, my context is that I’m someone who’s fit but wanting to take it to the next level. I’m not new to the gym and I’ve read multiple fitness books.

Duffy Gaver's "Hero Maker" has changed the way I look at rest, nutrition, exercise, supplements and mindset in my Wellness Journey, and is helping me with my continued physical and mental development.

Goodreads review by Braga on July 10, 2021

Solid material that comes from one of the best Hollywood trainers and an ex marine. Although cliched to hear those will power, discipline etc., it is indeed true. Without pains no gains. One of the best things about the author is the revelation of the sick health industry and how they market product......more

Goodreads review by Ben on July 11, 2021

Good book for an beginner lifter with less than 12 months experience or if you’ve never followed a basic strength program with progressive overload. I personally found the book very repetitive and limited in good information like rest time for specific goals etc......more
