Bods Among Men is aimed as a guidebook for reshaping how we think about ourselves in relation to the food we eat, the bodies we move, and the emotional and spiritual travails that consume us in our ongoing physical journey as men. Blending support and humor, Bods Among Men offers psychological insights and helpful exercises to move readers from contemplation to action. Ultimately, it serves as a guide toward the most essential acknowledgement of all: reframing our choices so that diet and exercise are no longer a means to an end, but rather an inevitable consequence of life-altering awareness.
