The Transformer

by Kris Gethin

The Transformer follows Kris Gethin’s story from a small town in Wales, barely in control of his own life—all the way to Mumbai, India, where he transformed the bodies of Bollywood stars like Hrithik Roshan and John Abraham while helping millions get their dream physiques around the world.
At 23, Kris is going nowhere. Then, one day, he goes to watch a bodybuilding competition and is amazed by the incredible physiques of the colossal men on stage. He decides that if he is ever to fulfil his potential he must transform himself like them.
Kris soon discovers that not only does transformation change his body drastically; it alters his life each time he undergoes it. From a small town in Wales to Australia to the United States he goes from success to success helping others along the way, whilst rising to the top of the world of natural bodybuilding.
Kris then settles in Boise, Idaho as Editor-in-Chief for the biggest online bodybuilding publication—Bodybuilding.com—creating videos, writing articles and books, enabling millions to get their ideal bodies.
Suddenly, disaster strikes. Forced to abandon his life and home in the US, Kris’s world quickly unravels and he is back where he started—
in Wales and not in control of his life. Can he rebuild it from scratch?
Then, out of the blue, he receives a phone call from Hrithik Roshan, the Bollywood superstar, and it is this moment which opens the most exciting chapter of his life yet, in India.
After becoming a household name in India, he returns to the UK and US to create a supplement line unlike anything the world has ever seen. Within seven months of its launch, KAGED MUSCLE becomes the highest-rated product across the globe.
Kris continues to transform many lives. He travels the world educating, certifying and inspiring people via his motivational seminars and practical workshops.

This was a terrific book about one of the trainers I follow daily to get in better shape. This is NOT an exercise book or anything about bodybuilding advice, but a memoir. I really enjoyed it. It was interesting to read about all of Kris' adventures abroad. I highly recommend if you are following any of Kris Gethin's training plans. This really "rounds out" the total picture.

While the writing is nothing great, the book offers some good inspiration for fitness enthusiasts. This is the background story of Kris Gethin and his incredible physical transformation. If you are a Gethin fan and into fitness, by all means pick it up. If not, you can give it a skip.
