'The Resilient Athlete' presents a step-by-step self-coaching framework designed to build foundational fitness and develop athletic resilience while optimizing your training for sports, athletics and adventure.
Unlock your true potential with The Resilient Athlete: a step-by-step self-coaching guide designed to build foundational fitness, develop athletic resilience, and optimize your training for sports, athletics, and adventure.

Training for a physical challenge or performance goal can be daunting, with potential setbacks and constant stress impacting both body and mind. But resilient athletes think long-term. They aim to build lifelong fitness, not just shine in a single race. They prepare themselves to withstand any pressure, seize every opportunity, and uncover their full potential-both as athletes and as individuals.

The Resilient Athlete offers a series of self-coaching sessions, akin to working with a performance coach. These sessions are not limited to one sport but focus on creating the ultimate athletic experience, balancing physical and emotional states with purpose.

Inside this inspiring guide, you'll discover:

Strategies to cultivate a winner's mindset, improve emotional health, and boost self-confidence
Systems to adopt a healthy, active lifestyle, reduce mental stress, and naturally enhance energy levels
Training tactics used by professional athletes and coaches to improve performance and break through training plateaus
Actionable tips to incorporate into your daily routine to improve mobility, build functional strength, and move pain-free

Resilience is the force that drives you to push through challenges and refuse to quit-whether in a race or in life. It's the secret sauce that allows an athlete to show up every day, put in the work, progress over the years, and do it all with passion.

Whether you're a professional athlete looking to develop mental strength and gain a competitive edge, a student seeking to cultivate a winner's mindset, a busy parent wanting more from your cardio and strength training, a competitive athlete aiming to return from injury safely, or someone who simply wishes to improve daily energy levels for a happier, more fulfilling life-The Resilient Athlete is designed to help YOU build resilience and optimize your lifestyle for sports and adventure.

Take the opportunity to optimize your fitness and uncover your athletic potential with The Resilient Athlete.

UK Delivery

Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.

The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.

Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom.
