Resumen del Editor

From Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Terry Crews, the deeply personal story of his lifelong obsession with strength—and how, after looking for it in all the wrong places, he finally found it

Terry Crews spent decades cultivating his bodybuilder physique and bravado. On the outside, he seemed invincible: he escaped his abusive father, went pro in the NFL, and broke into the glamorous world of Hollywood. But his fixation with appearing outwardly tough eventually turned into an exhausting performance in which repressing his emotions let them get the better of him—leading him into addiction and threatening the most important relationships in his life.

Now Crews is sharing the raw, never-before-told story of his quest to find the true meaning of toughness. In Tough, he examines arenas of life where he desperately sought control—masculinity, shame, sex, experiences with racism, and relationships—and recounts the setbacks and victories he faced while uprooting deeply ingrained toxic masculinity and finally confronting his insecurities, painful memories, and limiting beliefs. The result is not only the gripping story of a man's struggle against himself and how he finally got his mind right, but a bold indictment of the cultural norms and taboos that ask men to be outwardly tough while leaving them inwardly weak.

With Tough, Crews's journey of transformation offers a model for anyone who considers themselves a “tough guy” but feels unfulfilled; anyone struggling with procrastination or self-sabotage; and anyone ready to achieve true, lasting self-mastery.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“There isn’t a man more qualified to prove that vulnerability is strength than Terry Crews. In this raw, revealing memoir, he chronicles his journey through abuse, anger, insecurity, and misogyny—and shows how he found a better path. If his words don’t move you to tears, you might be a robot.”
—Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again and host of the TED podcast WorkLife

“From the fields of Flint, Michigan, to the packed arenas of the NFL and Hollywood, Terry Crews’s life is a testament to the power of physical and mental toughness. But there’s a deeper journey at work here that goes beyond one man’s story of overcoming painful challenges and long odds. The roots of Terry’s resiliency run deep and connect him to a history he carries inside.”
—Henry Louis Gates Jr., Alphonse Fletcher University Professor and Director of the Hutchins Center for African & African American Research, Harvard University

“Terry is an extraordinary storyteller. This memoir is powerful, profoundly human, and a behind-the-scenes look at an incredible life.”
—Amanda Nguyen, civil rights activist and Time Woman of the Year 2022

Not only is the book fantastic, Terry Crew's narration was phenomenal. I felt like I was listening to a close friend the whole time. This is a book I plan on listening to again sometime.

It Was Not What I Expected

What a beautiful, honest, brave and touching autobiography. I hung on every word. I was so pleased it was read by the author with great feeling and emotion. I feel like I know Mr. Crews because he was so transparent and I respect him for the man he has become. What a journey.

An Incredible Story of Discovery of Self and Growth

I think Terry Crews has incredible talent across many fields, and has helped entertain my family and I during the pandemic through Brooklyn Nine Nine. I once heard Terry Crews speak on Tim Ferris’s podcast and discovered he’s a big self-help nut like myself.

When I found out Terry Crews had a new book coming out I was excited to see what he learned and what his journey was about.

He didn’t disappoint.

Through Terry’s story I was able to see some parallels to my own upbringing that led to some similar life discoveries; I also learned to ask myself different questions I hadn’t considered before.

This was a great message about healing, about growth, and about compassion for ourselves and for others.

Thank you Terry Crews for putting out genuine positive messages out in the world!

Damn!

Damn good book, and full of a lot to think about and absorb. Plus, it's Terry Crews; Pretty sure the dude could make reading the back of a shampoo bottle entertaining.

Excellent read!

I was completely taken in by Terry’s story and it gave me a lot of things to consider in my own life, specifically the question, “ who has control of your Aux cord?”

Amazing story

Thank you Terry Crews for being a voice of reason and talking openly about the pain and recovery that made you the “Tough “ man that you are today. After hearing your story I’m like wow God is at work despite our human attempts to push him away. We are all better people for knowing more about Terry’s journey. May God continue to Bless the Crews family.

loved this book. but with one small criticism

I loved the honesty of this story of Terry Crews.
Terry does a great job 'performing' his story.

The only problem I had in the WHOLE book was when he talks about Obama being voted in by black people, after saying how much of a minority the black community is. It took a lot of other people of a lot of different colors, to vote Obama in. That was the only problem I had with his thought processes.

A good story!
