Your Primal Body was reviewed by Anne-Marie Reynolds for Readers’ Favorite, February 7, 2014:
Your Primal Body – the Paleo Way by Mikki Reilly is a another take on the hottest new way of living right now. It’s not just another diet and fitness book; it’s a book that takes us back to our roots and teaches us how to live the way our ancestors did.

Your Primal Body was reviewed by Stanley Fishman, author of Tender Grassfed Meat, November 22, 2013:
This book is a treasure. It is nothing less than a comprehensive guide on how to get healthy in a sensible way that actually works. The book is based on the Paleo movement, and Mikki’s vast experience as a trainer who has enjoyed great success in actually helping her clients become lean, fit, and healthy, as demonstrated by the very useful testimonies.
Your Primal Body was reviewed by Matthew Arieta, PrimalPalette.com, November 1, 2013:
Your Primal Body is what I’d call a thorough overview of the diet & exercise tools you’ll need to reclaim your health. The approach of this book is to go a mile wide and an inch deep on many related subjects. That’s not a criticism. Whole books have been written on each topic you’ll find here, such as functional training. Most readers will find it a plus that the goods have been conveniently gathered into one place.

Your Primal Body was reviewed by Aaron Olson, PaleoRunner.com, October 17, 2013:
Mikki’s book is refreshing in that it gives a quick overview of the how-to of the Paleo lifestyle. She doesn’t waste time going into the endless details about why you should eat a Paleo-style diet, or why you should exercise a certain way. She gives you the facts, then offers some advice to get you on your way to living better.

Your Primal Body was reviewed by Grassfed Geek, Jason M. Stanley, June 13, 2013:
There are tons of books on nutrition, exercise, stress management, supplementation, sleep, as well as about a million Paleo cookbooks, but nothing I’ve seen so far does a good job at covering all of those topics in an extremely accessible way that’s perfect for the beginner. I’m working on putting up a page with my best book recommendations across different topics, and there are a lot of them, but if I was going to recommend one book for somebody who was just starting to explore the Paleo lifestyle it would be this one..

Your Primal Body was reviewed by Sam Norton, Taste for Life Magazine, May 2013:
Certified fitness trainer Mikki Reilly shows that eating and exercising according to the lifestyles of the earliest humans helps keep you in top condition. A sedentary lifestyle leads to a variety of diseases-from obesity to diabetes, heart disease, and even arthritis.

Your Primal Body was reviewed by Jana Barrett, Santa Barbara Magazine, Spring 2013:
The Paleo diet pushes for a return to the ‘right way’ of living, and few of us are doing it as well as Santa Barbaran Mikki Reilly.

Your Primal Body was reviewed by Rosi Hollinbeck, City Book Review, March 4, 2013:
An aging population wracked with heart disease, obesity, diabetes, arthritis, and other health problems should be a clarion call to all to examine how we eat and how we live. Our long-ago ancestors, hunter-gatherers who roamed the plains and forests, eking out a subsistence existence, had relatively few diseases or other health issues. If one looks to them for guidance, one will understand where Mikki Reilly, a personal trainer, came up with her thesis for improving strength and health over all: live the Paleo lifestyle like a caveman.

Your Primal Body was reviewed by Robert Ellsworth, Examiner.com, January 9, 2013:
Have you tried every diet under the sun and still yo-yo back and forth? The more you diet, the more you crave treats? You’ve almost given up on ever being and staying slim. “Your Primal Body” may help you get off the yo-yo chain and make a real change.
Your Primal Body was reviewed by John Koenig, Stuff I Like, January 4, 2013:
I like this book a hell of a lot more than anticipated. I assumed it was Da Capo Press trying to horn in on the Paleo marketplace, get into the action with an entry into a category they perceived as hot. Did the world need another book with Primal in the title, I wondered?
Turns out author Reilly hit all the nails on the head, squarely. Clearly, her audience isn’t myself, and once I figured that out I approached Your Primal Body differently and saw Reilly’s vision with clarity.
