Full of excellent facts about the way you should treat your body to be successful as an athlete. No stone is unturned in this easy to follow book, which if studied carefully, should lead you to success in your field.

I found this book very helpful in motivating my teenagers to perform their best in their sporting endeavors. The author covers everything you need to know when coaching a teenager, ranging from correct nutrition, training, and coping with mental barriers; highly recommended for parents with teen athletes.

The author does a good job of outlining all of the essential ways in which "mental toughness" is built. The author delves into exercises that are commonplace amongst sport psychology including journaling, breathing, etc. The author quickly shifts from these outlines to nutrition, physical training, and sleep. As one immersed in the field, this book provides a basic surface level of all of the components. If one has never been exposed to any of the methods of mental training, it may provide a good start to explore further.
