    [synopsis] => Loving your life is the new health, fitness, and weight loss. What's wrong with the old versions? They were never more than productized substitutes for the quality of life that we all seek. But productizing life never works out for you, only for those trying to profit from the products it creates. Unlike health, fitness, and diet practices, the act of loving your life produces superior results that require no experts, fancy buildings, expensive footwear, or a degree in biochemistry. Loving your life is the simple recognition that you no longer have any need for a diet when you understand fitness, you no longer have any need for fitness when you understand health, and you no longer have any need for health when you understand life.

Written by the holder of four of the nation's most prestigious fitness certifications, coach to pro athletes, and owner of an active west coast health club, the book explains why the author chose to abandon his life's work and close his health club forever. This came from the realization that the issues causing most people to seek health and fitness advice are never resolved with the minutiae of programs or routines or diets or weight loss because those issues are internal struggles first. The physical issues that people seek to resolve are only symptoms, not the cause.

This book contains many stories from years as a fitness coach and health club owner that reveal the empty promise of time spent in the gym and counting calories. To whatever extent you nurture the whole-of-life-instead of just pieces of it-is the extent to which you are alive. Anything else is just a distraction, and some degree of Dead.

"A Mild Case of Dead" invites the reader to examine their own understanding of the human condition called Alive. Once we come face-to-face with what life is about, the concepts called health, fitness, and a correct diet, as they are currently learned, taught, talked about, and practiced, are recognized as distractions from it. Pursuing them won't get you any closer to the life you were meant to have and will in fact kill you... if only mildly.
