8th January 2025, National: Westland Books is set to launch Simple, Not Easy, an insightful debut book by fitness expert Raj Ganpath, founder of the popular fitness institute, Quad Fitness. Simple, Not Easy is a simplified fitness book which explains basic concepts of good health and weight loss. The simple fitness guide begins with fundamentals of fitness, then highlights the essential role of sleep, nutrition, exercise and weight loss in detail.
Simple, Not Easy explores key lifestyle topics, including smart eating, which involves building a balanced food plate focusing on health and strength. Secondly, it talks about satisfaction rather than stuffed by practicing ‘satiety,’ a state of feeling physically and mentally fulfilled after eating, different from feeling full or stuffed.
Raj Ganpath is a certified coach and fitness mentor with more than 15 years of expertise in the field of nutrition and fitness. Known for his simple fitness concepts, he teaches people how they can simplify their lives by taking the mystery out of fitness and nutrition, and helping them make better choices for a stronger life.

Speaking about his first book, Raj Ganpath said, “My goal has always been to make fitness approachable and attainable for everyone, and Simple, Not Easy does exactly that by providing you with a simple, positive and clear approach that works for real people in the real world. The book isn’t loaded with diet plans and doesn’t uncover exercises or supplements that will fix all your fitness and weight problems overnight. Instead, it simplifies fitness and makes you see the big picture. It helps you to understand your “why” and guides you on the “how” very practically. Simply said, this book is about making fitness a part of your life – the why, what and how. It is about taking small, meaningful steps that align with your life and goals. It provides positivity, clarity and actionable insights, motivating you to embrace fitness in a way that’s sustainable and approachable for you.”
