Summary

Entrepreneur Jesse Itzler chronicles his month of living and extreme fitness training with a Navy SEAL in the New York Times and number one LA Times best seller Living With a Seal, now with two bonus sections.

Entrepreneur Jesse Itzler will try almost anything. His life is about being bold and risky. So when Jesse felt himself drifting on autopilot, he hired a rather unconventional trainer to live with him for a month-an accomplished Navy SEAL widely considered to be "the toughest man on the planet"!

Living With a Seal is like a buddy movie if it starred the Fresh Prince of Bel- Air...and Rambo. Jesse is about as easy-going as you can get. SEAL is...not. Jesse and SEAL's escapades soon produce a great friendship, and Jesse gains much more than muscle. At turns hilarious and inspiring, Living With a Seal ultimately shows you the benefits of stepping out of your comfort zone.

surprisingly motivational

this is a funny and sweet book. I really like the narrator and find he is very charismatic and inviting. it is a friendly voice.

the story impressed me I was enjoying the journey and the anecdotes although some are a little self promotional.

this story has really motivated me. I would love more detail about seal. and to know the big red chicken story.

easy listen

I really enjoyed this book
Nice easy listen,I took notes as to some of the workouts as I went through the book.
Not easy at all but it is a great way to motivate ones self and try and get to 1000 push ups in a day.

Enjoy!

Don’t waste your money

This is not a funny book at all, not even mildly amusing. It is a guy who has seen a business opportunity and jumped on the DAvid Goggins bandwagon.

All he does is tell you how successful him and his wife is sprinkled with training with DG. His a business man and this book is all about an opportunity for him to take your money.

If you haven’t read/listened to David Goggins book I would suggest doing that and ignoring this book.

book was ok

Good book but did become a bit like reading of a list of achievements look at me I am so rich .
that stuff added very little to the story .
makes david goggins a little less likeable which is a shame as can't hurt me is one of my favourite audiobooks .
but the book did manage to keep me listening till the end and there were some good bits, I will not listens to it a second time though .

A LOT of fluff

There was a lot more background of Itzler and stories about the products he promotes than there were about Living with a SEAL.

The book felt longer than 5 hours (which isn't a compliment) and I felt that only about half of it was about Living with a SEAL. In addition to that, much of it was listing the training done that day. So all in all, I'd say 2.25 hours of actual content.

The guy is personable enough, although his "lie, wing it and win" stories grate a bit. The actual SEAL quotes and ethos is fantastic. I wish there was more about him and less about the author's ability to lie his way into things.

Was the book worth it? Maybe, maybe not. But by the time you realize it isn't, it's too late to refund. Go read Goggins book instead. The book/podcast combo is awesome and well worth your credits.

Repetitive and tedious

Narrators voice like nails on a chalk board. basically 5 hours of being told that hes going out on another 6 mile run.
