He knows firsthand that you can’t drop weight or enjoy better health until you overcome the mental obstacles that cause bad choices in the first place.In T is for Transformation, Shaun T unveils the 7 transformational principles that guided his progress through life and that are at the core of his incredibly successful workouts. T is for Transformation is a motivational master class as Shaun shows you how to become more flexible and resourceful, give everything you’ve got, and, most importantly, trust and believe in your path to success. The only real obstacles in life are the mental ones, and T is for Transformation can train you to achieve astonishing results in your own life, just as Shaun T has in his.Editorial ReviewsReview“I know Shaun T as the tough love motivator and butt kicker behind my favorite workout videos. His workouts are HARD, but I always feel amazing after them―I can’t believe I survived, and I can’t believe that my body can do all that crazy stuff. But I had no idea where Shaun learned the techniques that help to inspire, push, heal, and help me (and the millions of others who have gotten fit along with him).” ―Serena Williams, 4-time Olympic gold medalist and 23-time Grand Slam champion“Shaun T has motivated millions to change their lives and it has little to do with his chiseled physique.

Trust and Believe that Shaun T will be sweating, burning and digging deeper right there next to you every step of the way.”―Bethanie Mattek-Sands, Olympic gold medalist and 8-time Grand Slam Champion“Not long ago I tweeted that at 43 I found myself in the parking lot of a gym, contemplating the fact that I had been dieting and exercising to lose weight since I was 9 years old. It was a sobering and ultimately demoralizing realization and, if anything, really undermined any motivation I had to keep at it. But Shaun’s book T is For Transformation and his message changed my perception of what the struggle really needed to be about. His Truthbombs, “It isn’t about the weight, fit isn’t about a number, if you’re chasing a number you’ll never catch it” made me pause and reexamine what my goals of the last 30-plus years have been. His message to simply do better each day than the previous day with consistency is what I really needed to hear. Focusing on how the journey makes you feel versus arbitrary numbers on a scale is the mindshift I’ve needed to think about fitness not as unachievable, but as something I can achieve every single day by simply moving my body and putting good things in it. Shaun shares his personal stories of struggle and the mental breakthroughs that help him overcome them, which means he knows what we are going through and is not lecturing from a pedestal. I know that I’ll visit and revisit this book for years to come, every time I need a pick-me-up and a voice telling me to keep going!” ―Rabia Chaudry, New York Times bestselling author of Adnan’s Story and co-host and co-producer of the podcast UndisclosedHardcover: 272 pagesPublisher: Rodale Books (November 7, 2017)http://www.amazon.com/Transformation-Unleash-Superpowers-Dee…
