Matt is an entertaining fitness ‘Guru’ - full of practical, simple advice with a bit of humour thrown in..
Looking forward to putting some of his advice in lockdown and getting back to the gym post lockdown.
Am interested in reading/listening to some more of his books.
Hope this will help my consistency in what I eat and how I exercise.

To be honest I had never heard of Matt Morsia but as I am really getting into audio books and I enjoy listening to Health & Fitness I thought I would give this a go
The book itself is more a biography than a fitness book
Having read James Smith and various other diet books there is not much in there I haven't heard before but if you haven't there is some tips and advice and Matt's commitment to his competitive sports and his YouTube business is very evident. . I have not watched him either but he does try to be funny a few times through the book and unfortunatley it doesn't quite work for me

Having listened to the audio extract of this book I'm intrigued to hear more. The book is narrated by the author and he clearly has passion for this topic and from the introduction this sounds like a book that will appeal to a the masses who have grown sick of fad diets. He narrates well and is a pleasure to listen to.

This is a topic I have a real interest in, and a decent amount of knowledge on, and I wholeheartedly agree with the author in that fad diets are not long term solutions. That he promises we don't have to give up favourite foods is also a big selling point!!

Unfortunately I have been unable to access the audiobook - there seems to be a glitch somewhere that prevents it downloading, and despite reaching out to see if this can be fixed that it hasn't been resolves prevents me from accessing the whole book, as such I have rated purely on the extract I have been able to access.

My thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for the opportunity ti review this audiobook in exchange for an advance copy.

I'd never heard of Matt previously, but since I need to shift a few lockdown/christmas pounds in the coming months, I thought this could be a good listen. Matt comes across very well on audio, with a light conversational tone that feels like you're listening to a mate. I did hear a few mistakes that needed to be edited out, but they weren't without their charm.

Content wise, this is pleasingly BS free. He explains in simple terms how fat loss occurs and offers some insight into muscle gain and issues surrounding supplements and crash diets. The only criticism I have is when he used vegan diets as an example of a difficult diet to get enough protein on. I've been vegan for a few years and never struggled to get enough protein. His point stands when it comes to the plant-based fad diets (of which there are many) but referring to a 'vegan diet' doesn't really mean much. Some of us eat higher protein, others don't. It's a lifestyle, not a diet.

Overall, I really enjoyed this and I'm sure I'll check out his Youtube channel.

My thanks to Netgalley for my audio copy of The 24/7 Body read by the author Matt Morsia.

As a 67 year woman, who is always looking to lose weight, increase her fitness, gain muscle and lose fat, looking at the cover for the book sporting the author looking young and hench, I wasn't sure this was the book for me. However, I found the narrator very easy to listen to and enjoyed his manner of speaking, Personally I always call a bellend a bellend!!! (If you can't stomach strong language then this isn't for you) I liked his voice and his accent but my son couldn't stand being in the same room if I was listening without headphones, so as usual, you can't please all of the people all of the time.

I found this book an absolute mine of small tips I'd never considered before with regards to lifting incremental weights, dealing with injury and supplements in particular. I was even able to pass on information to my younger, much fitter husband. There was a lot of useful information regarding losing fat too but I was already familiar with the majority of it because this has been my goal for at least 50 years. (It's putting it into practice that I struggle with lol!)

Despite the cover illustration this book is actually aimed at women as well as men at all ranges of fitness and I totally recommend it as it's entertaining and informative.
