Jesse Itzler will try almost anything. His life is about being bold and risky. So when Jesse felt himself drifting on autopilot, he hired a rather unconventional trainer to live with him for a month―an accomplished Navy SEAL widely considered to be "the toughest man on the planet"! Living With a Seal is like a buddy movie if it starred the Fresh Prince of Bel- Air ... and Rambo. Jesse is about as easy-going as you can get. SEAL is ... not. Jesse and SEAL's escapades soon produce a great friendship, and Jesse gains much more than muscle. At turns hilarious and inspiring, Living With a Seal ultimately shows you the benefits of stepping out of your comfort zone. Review: The most hilarious and insightful motivational book (that's not a motivational book) you'll ever read. - I've been a fan of Itzler's since the days when he was known as Jesse Jaymes. As an awkward, hip-hop loving high school freshman living in the Midwest, his album "30 Footer in Your Face" spent a lot of quality time in my Discman. He was the first MC that seemed like a guy I could hang out with, sort of like the Zack Morris of hip-hop. Fast forward to a couple years ago. I was training for a Half Ironman triathlon. On one particularly long run, his jam "College Girls" shuffled into my head. I hadn't heard the song in years and when I got home, the first thing I did was Google Jesse to see what he'd been up to. Turns out he'd been up to quite a bit. And frankly, it was inspirational to see. Way to go, dude. Seriously. Even though I detest running (send me out on a 100 mile bike ride anytime), there's a lot of crossover when it comes to ultra-endurance sports. In "Living with a SEAL," the reader gets a very up close, and often hilarious, look at how the mindset of an endurance athlete is forged. On the surface, Itzler's diary-like account of his month in hell is a breezy and entertaining glad-it's-not-me read but, when you look between the lines, there is a profound motivational quality lurking just under the surface thanks to SEAL's blunt words of wisdom and how Itzler interprets them. So much of the endurance game is mental and getting woken up in the wee hours of the morning by being called a "motherf'er" by one of the baddest motherf'ers on the planet is a swift kick in the motivational pants for both Itzler and the reader. For anyone who's looking for a spark to get out of the rut of routine or a reminder that all it takes to go farther and harder is the will to do so (the 40% rule is a particularly big help), "Living with a SEAL" is a must read. Review: Changing your mindset with a twist of humor … - I read DG book ( can’t hurt me) and saw several podcasts featuring DG and Jesse, and finally got to read the book… This book blended transformation of personality and attitude of the lead character ( Jesse) after spending a month with the discipline of an Ex Navy Seal ( DG). Jesse was able to take the reader through his daily blog of events through his 30 day mixing his experience with humor and trying to honor his promise to the SEAL which he promised he would do anything and everything that is asked of him. Throughout the book, you can feel the various emotions that Jesse expressed and how his attitude started to mould in a way he didn’t expect or thought was possible. The discipline that the SEAL enforced on Jesse and his daily living was so uncomfortable for anyone to continue if it was not for Jesse persistence and desire to prevail with his challenge. Despite many unexpected and sometimes comic situations throughout the book, the writer managed to keep the reader engaged and in suspense to find out what is going to happen next…. For the SEAL, it was a mission that he wanted to complete and move on to the next challenge, but I believe deep inside, I thought the SEAL cared about the family that hosted him for a month. It is also how the SEAL managed to capture the attention of almost everyone who he came across even though that was not his intention, but that speaks much to his character and discipline which many seemed to appreciate and find quite extraordinary. I found humor reading the book, blended with lessons for life and motivation and the importance of setting goals and to have direction in life. The writer transformation seemed to start budding slowly but surely after the first 2 weeks, as it reflected on his tenacity and desire to continue to push despite physical struggles as he started to build what DG calls ( mental calluses )… This book and DG books are great reads and both are extremely valuable to read for someone who feels they need the extra push to achieve the desired mindset .. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #27,212 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #162 in Exercise & Fitness (Books) #251 in Personal Transformation Self-Help #331 in Memoirs (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 10,830 Reviews | ## Images ![Living with a SEAL: 31 Days Training with the Toughest Man on the Planet - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/814zgOFvmIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The most hilarious and insightful motivational book (that's not a motivational book) you'll ever read. *by B***A on June 8, 2016* I've been a fan of Itzler's since the days when he was known as Jesse Jaymes.

The fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants nature of Jesse Itzler is not only entertaining but also cause to reflect on what could be different in my own approach to life. It is well written and easy to follow, save for a few tangential sidebar stories which actually contribute well to the conversational nature of the book. What I enjoy most about it is that anyone, at any level can gain insight and motivation from it. The level of intensity that SEAL and Jesse take workouts to is nuts. Straight up. I'm an ICU nurse and parts of it had me cringing. The key takeaway is that an insanely intense workout, broken into segments is doable. The other key takeaway is that when we feel tired, we are only at 40% of what our body is capable of. I will add, just as some constructive criticism, that if the reader is easily offended by cursing this may not be the book for you. I got sick of the word MFer. Kind of loses it's punch after a while. There is also a story retold by the author where a would be singer he is trying to promote is requested by Howard Stern to show up on his show nude. The whole point of the story is that she may have been talentless and brainless but had a great rack. It didn't contribute to the point of the book and didn't really give me a lot of respect for the author. Those things aside, I did give it 5 stars because it fits its intended purpose of being entertaining and motivational. ## Frequently Bought Together - Living with a SEAL: 31 Days Training with the Toughest Man on the Planet - Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds - Living with the Monks: What Turning Off My Phone Taught Me about Happiness, Gratitude, and Focus --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/35589132-living-with-a-seal-31-days-training-with-the-toughest](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/35589132-living-with-a-seal-31-days-training-with-the-toughest) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-25*
