The Story
Never have we had more trainers, health coaches, fitness influencers, paid and free YouTube workout channels, self-styled nutrition experts, weight loss programs, fitness/food trackers, diet books, fitness challenges, supplements, pills, powders, lotions, and potions...yet still, people are struggling to take control of their weight and their health.
When Nutritionist and Physical Therapist Shaun Taylor Bevins launched her health-promoting No Excuses Facebook group in January 2020, she had no idea how quickly it would grow or how much it would teach her about the obstacles people face when trying to lose weight and get healthy. Lack of motivation, inadequate support, poor nutritional habits, emotional eating, distorted body image, food allergies, and an inability to prioritize exercise were just a few of the barriers highlighted in member questions and responses. More importantly, she realized how alive and well the destructive diet culture remains and how confused many people still are when it comes to achieving their health/wellness goals.
Shaun's first book was inspired by her No Excuses group and offers a health-centered approach to building a lean, strong, and healthy body. Drawing from over three decades of experience in the health and wellness industry, she emphasizes the importance of abandoning the quick fix and instead adopting sustainable habits that support long-term health, a process that often requires a shift in our attitudes about weight, weight loss, exercise, fitness, and health.
