An integrated and personalized approach to health, nutrition, training, recovery, and mindset. Perfect for personal trainers, sports science students, fans of high-level fitness (CrossFit, marathon training, Ironman, team sports), and gym enthusiasts. There is a new revolution happening in sports as more and more athletes base their success on this game-changing approach to health, nutrition, training, recovery, and mindset. Unfortunately, the evidence-based techniques that expert PhDs, academic institutions, and professional performance staffs follow can be in stark contrast to what many athletes actually practice. When combined with the noise of social media, old-school traditions, and bro-science, it can be difficult to separate fact from fiction. Peak is a groundbreaking book exploring the fundamentals of high performance (not the fads), the importance of consistency (not extreme effort), and the value of patience (not rapid transformation). Dr. Bubbs makes deep science easy to understand, and with information from leading experts who influence the top performers in sports on how to achieve world-class success, he lays out the record-breaking feats of athleticism and strategies that are rooted in this personalized approach. Dr. Bubbs’s performance protocol is for the elite athlete, active individual, strength coach, nutritionist, or practitioner who wants to expand their potential. Dr. Bubbs expertly brings together the worlds of health, nutrition, and exercise and synthesizes the salient science into actionable guidance. Whether you’re trying to improve your physique, propel your endurance, or improve your team’s record, looking at performance through this lens is absolutely critical for lasting success.
