Energy Is Everything: Mindset, Nutrition & Exercise for the best version of you is a book aimed to help you look, feel and perform at your best. Rather than the tired old health messages you’ve heard a million times before, Mike MacDonald blends his own experience, lessons from working with real clients, and the latest scientific research to outline a path to your best self. 4 Important Insights You’ll Learn: 1. Mindset: How the old model of motivation is flawed and what you really need to do to finally escape those stop-start cycles and create lasting change in how you look, feel and perform. 2. Nutrition: Not just what to eat, but how. How to cut through the confusion. How modern foods drive cravings. How to regain control over your eating behaviours and the surprising ways our environment shapes our food choices. 3. Exercise: Most people are doing it wrong ...or not at all! You'll learn why the conventional approach to weight loss always fails. You'll discover a new perspective of exercise and learn the most effective way to exercise for fat loss. 4. And then some: it's not just diet and exercise. You learn several forgotten ways to improve your sense of wellbeing and happiness, and will discover a clear path to having more energy in life: to look, feel and perform at your best. “Mike is inspirational and realistic, illustrating his approach with tales of success and lessons learned when things didn’t go to plan. His book provides an excellent framework of simple strategies that can be applied to your lifestyle to improve your health, your mind-set and your body.” Scott Baptie Director of Food For Fitness, Physique & Sports Nutrition Specialist, “I first met Mike MacDonald at one of my mentorships a few years back. What struck me about him was his positive energy, faith, attitude, and true desire to help people. In his new book, Energy Is Everything: Mindset, Nutrition & Exercise for the best version of you, Mike does an extraordinary job educating, motivating, and inspiring you to improve your overall health & fitness. This book is a gem that is going to truly help you live your best life. It will undoubtedly improve your health & fitness and “Get your mind right.” Todd Durkin, MA, CSCS, Owner, Fitness Quest 10 (San Diego, CA), Author, The IMPACT! Body Plan Lead Training Advisor, Under Armour “This book makes accessible much of the academic literature on key areas of importance for active people. Written in an easy-going manner, and enriched with thought-provoking quotations from a wide literature, Mike MacDonald has brought us much more than the three themes of mind, nutrition and movement. Rather he has braided them into a strong cord which powers a lifestyle approach, which exceeds the sum of its parts. Accepting his thesis for enhancing performance, the reader can expect a range of long term dividends across a wider health domain, beyond the vanity of appearance and the preoccupation with body weight.” Dr Arthur Stewart Institute of Health and Welfare Research Robert Gordon University “Mike hits the nail on the head with "Energy Is Everything" - consistently I see the common denominator of those people that succeed in dropping weight, completing marathons or generally achieving their goals is the energy they bring to the table. To have that energy we must both be mindful in our approach to health and wellbeing but also cut ourselves some slack from time to time - being miserable because you ate a chocolate bar last night is not going to help anyone! Life is for living and energy really is everything - this book provides some great tips and advice on exercise, nutrition and wellbeing from a holistic point of view. This easy to read book is a must for anyone looking to be healthy and happy.” Louise Kochalski Owner and Director of Training The Health and Human Performance Centre

Hungover and stuck at a job you hate, will you show up for your big presentation, or duck out with Debby, the HR rep with an FDR fetish? Play the weird lump on your back for office-wide sympathy, or dive into an internet spiral that can only end in "ten kinds of cancer"? Tell someone about the weird genital-fondling that's happening at the crystal healer's, or just accept that this is the best substitute you'll find for love, today...or maybe ever? From two comedy writers and past contributors to The Onion comes a modern-day tale of woe: the story of your soul-crushing existence. Choosing your own adventure is great when you're a kid, but in the adult world, the only options on offer are endless varieties of misery. In your office adventure there are countless "options," but they rarely end well. It's okay, though. A life of adventure would require so many uncomfortable sleeping situations. Besides, you have dental. Keep reminding yourself about the dental.

From The Onion alum writers Mike MacDonald and Jilly Gagnon comes a hilarious choose-your-own-path story to that will save you hours of suffering on Tinder. The only thing worse than getting back on the dating horse? The brutal loneliness of perpetual singledom. That's why you're putting in the effort to find your soulmate…or at least someone to warm your bed for a night. Playing as one of two characters, you get to choose just how bad your dating life gets. Will you head to a high school party or hitch your wagon to a Steve Urkel impersonator? Dabble in the painfully shallow depths of sexualizing your arm wound, or up the intensity of your first date by entering an underground fight club? Try to relive the romance of Harold and Maude, but with more roofies and an ominous burial plot in Maude's backyard? From the writers who brought you the hilarious parodies Choose Your Own Misery: The Office and Choose Your Own Misery: The Holidays comes the oldest form of misery in the book: the self-prostitution that is dating. "Oh, how I laughed at this droll little book. Then, slowly but irreversibly, it filled me up with dread." ―Jesse Andrews, New York Times bestselling author of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl

Choose Your Own Misery: Dating

From The Onion alum writers Mike MacDonald and Jilly Gagnon comes a hilarious choose-your-own-path story to ruin your holiday spirit. ”Bah! Humbug! An ideal choice for holiday haters and readers who enjoy David Sedaris’s hysterically funny take, Holidays on Ice.”―Library Journal This is the year you’re going to do it: you’re going to avoid Christmas completely! ...or you were, until your island getaway got washed out by a hurricane. Now you have to choose: should you spend the holiday with your shrewish sister and her Europhile husband, or endure your new girlfriend’s family for a week? Help chop down a tree even though it might throw out your back, or endure the icy judgment of a woman who thinks only children and pussies help bake cookies? Jet off to the glamorous slums of Kingston, Jamaica, or accept the offer of a ride from a man who never stops smiling...and is probably going to turn you into a skin suit? From the writers who brought you the hilarious parody Choose Your Own Misery: The Office comes a second helping of misery with a festive twist. Christmas is full of fun surprises for kids, but for adults, it’s just an endless series of aggressive crowds, overwhelming credit card debt, and pretending to like the people you’re forced to spend it with. Once you unwrap all the holiday misery hiding in these pages, the blackness of your heart will rival any lump of coal. "I played this book thirty times and the happiest ending I got was one where I got to eat turkey with a badly burned hand. Seems about right. Hilarious every time."―Ryan North, New York Times bestselling author of Romeo And/Or Juliet
