Publisher Description

“I love this book! Read it and you’ll see why Vinnie’s the guy that trains me. He’ll make you laugh, get you in the best shape of your life and inspire you with his incredible but true story.”

Howie Mandel

America’s Angriest Trainer, Vinnie Tortorich, exposes the nasty underbelly of the fitness industry while helping you get into the best shape of your life. For over 20 years, Vinnie has been Hollywood’s go-to guy for celebrities and athletes looking to get fit fast. Now, in this hilarious and often r-rated memoir, he holds nothing back. What’s the best piece of fitness equipment money can buy? What’s the fastest way to lose weight: diet or exercise? Why are health clubs worse than used car lots? It’s all here. His take-no-prisoners approach to getting in shape started when he was a kid in Louisiana, where he was routinely teased and beaten after being crippled by a birth defect. He overcame it and, later, found his passion as an ultra cyclist, until a deadly disease nearly took his life on the eve of competing in the Furnace Creek 508: a brutal cycling competition through the heart of Death Valley. In FITNESS CONFIDENTIAL, Vinnie lays it all on the line. So get ready to get fit, get inspired and get the dirt with Hollywood’s most outrageous personal trainer.

Must read

I heard Vinnie on Adam Carolla show and must say this is a good read. It "cuts the crap" and tells both a life story with weight loss. Now to listen to the podcast

Unique voice and an interesting story, but a bit disjointed.

The authors has a compelling upbringing that gives him a very interesting perspective. He also has some really fascinating stories, but ultimately I think fails to tie these together in a cohesive manner. From his childhood in Louisiana to the nutritional and dietary advice, his bout with illness and the ultra ride, I was hoping for a stronger meaning to pull these experiences together. Overall though, an enjoyable read from a funny and illustrative voice.
