Fitness advice for everyone, from couch potatoes just rising out of their lethargy to fitness buffs preparing for the Ironman competition.

BPS Books is proud to offer readers a French edition of Living the Good Life, by David Patchell-Evans: a book with more than 750,000 copies in print in English.

Patch, as he likes to be called, eats, sleeps, and works fitness. He is a five-time rowing champion and the founder and CEO of GoodLife Fitness Clubs, which he built up from one club in the mid-1980s to its current number of 300 clubs and 750,000 members today.

Patch, as he likes to be called, recounts his own personal and business story and gives balanced and inspiring tips on exercise, diet, and life. Patch knows that not everyone is cut out to be an athlete; he shows how good enough can be great for you.

David Patchell-Evans is the founder and CEO of GoodLife Fitness Clubs. He is also the founder of the Canadian Association of Fitness Professionals.
