TESTIMONIAL
REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS
I trained for a marathon once… to the fridge. This book is my bible. Chapter 3 saved me from ever using stairs again. 10/10, would nap while reading.
Jenny Thompson
Professional Couch Critic
Finally, a workout plan I can stick to: no workouts. Chapter 2’s ‘dog ate my gym shoes’ excuse changed my life. My couch thanks you, Paula.
Dave Rodriguez
CEO of Chill
Read this while ‘recovering’ from a 3-hour nap. Chapter 4 taught me laundry is optional. My laundry pile is now a modern art installation. Pure genius.
