THE SECRETS OF SUPERHUMAN PERFORMANCE
The Best Reveals How the Most Incredible Sportspeople in the World Get to the Top and Stay There.
It is a unique look at the path to sporting greatness; a story of origins, serendipity, practice, genetics, and the psychology of excellence, as well as sports science and cutting-edge technology.
Packed with gripping personal stories and exclusive interviews with top athletes, including Siya Kolisi, Marcus Rashford, Pete Sampras, Steph Curry, Jamie Carragher, Ian Poulter, Helen Glover, Ada Hegerberg, Elena Delle Donne, Joey Votto, and Mike Hussey, it explains how the best athletes develop the extraordinary skills that allow them to perform remarkable feats under extreme pressure.
Get inside the minds of champions and understand first-hand what makes them perform during high-octane competition, what they think about in the heat of the moment, and what drives them to do what they do.
By combining examples from numerous original interviews with top athletes and leading sports science research, THE BEST deconstructs superhuman performance and answers the question on every sports fan's mind: How did they do that?
Fascinating and insightful...
The Best isn't a one-size-fits-all, it's a highly thought-out, well-researched, and accessible book that gives recommendations based on context and sport.
Joanne O'Riordan, The Irish Times, says:
