"WIN is undoubtedly one of the most evidence-based books on athletic performance.
It teaches you the underlying pillars to physical development and fitness, such as nutrition, muscle growth, fat loss, body composition optimization, recovery, supplementation and so much more.
Not only are there specific protocols that have been formulated in the book, but all the recommendations are backed by a wealth of scientific evidence.
This book is suitable for both beginners, as well as advanced athletes, complete science nerds, body builders, the average Joe or Jane wanting to lose an extra few pounds, as well as top tier elite athletes.
If I had this information available to me when I was competing, I know that it would have given me a significant advantage. I hope you enjoy WIN as much as I have!"

Many books have been written about physical performance, but they all have a different focus. You can find great information on bodybuilding, endurance, or just general weight loss. However, few books tackle the topic in an all-encompassing way. This is what WIN is about – providing a manual for overall sports optimization, that not only covers training but also nutrition, recovery, sleep, supplementation, and biohacking. In this book, you will learn about the science, application, and nuances of achieving any of your fitness goals.
I am a health coach and I read books like this one all the time to keep up with what's going on in the world of health and fitness. WIN is by far the best,no BS, one I've read in a while. Some of the recommendations may go against what you believe to be truth but all of them are backed by science. A lot of what is out there is just someone's opinion that was made 'fact'.
I didnt get immersed in the book immidiatelly, but after a while I really liked it- it can be used as a general guidance and understanding how the body’s metabolic processes work and it is for a wide audience, not only professional athletes.
Wow--that was A LOT of information. Some of it, I wished I had known when my daughter was competing in sports in high school. Maybe it would have saved her from injuries as well. But you don't have to be in competitive sports to glean a lot of great overall health information: supplements, fitness, immunity, sleep. I work-out regularly, so I have heard a lot of piecemealed information on those subjects. But it was nice to have everything straightforward and bullet pointed for me. I earmarked quite a few pages to go back to and review. If you really want to get serious about your health and workouts, there is a great wealth of information here.
Overall, I love the book: it has lots of great information and kickstarters for fitness enthusiasts such as myself.
The only downside was that I was hoping more info on how to structure my workouts but with the info on the book, you can easily navigate the info that is on the internet.
A must read if you are starting on your fitness journey.. 🏋🏻
Very helpful with laying out best ways to reach my peak athletic performance. It’s not very well written though. A lot of it is repetitive and unless you’re a scientist or doctor, about half of it is difficult to follow. I got the gist of it though. I would like a condensed version for average people like me that are trying to apply these principles to their physical fitness journey.
An essential guide for anyone looking to achieve peak performance, whether you're an athlete or not. Filled with actionable biohacking tips, though some recommendations may require further scrutiny. Highly informative and detailed
A lot of very specific information. Some applies to you, some doesn’t. I took away several actionable items that I integrated into my health and wellness practices.
Highly recommend for any athlete looking to improve their performances. I'm a runner and this had a lot of helpful tidbits about salt intake, nutrition in general, sleep, recovery and lots more.
Best all around fitness/wellness/performance book I’ve read to date. Packed with all sorts of information for the professional athlete, the workout dad, the fit mom, the college student looking for gains, the person looking to lose weight and make serious lifestyle changes etc. excellently done.
Excellent read for the high level athlete looking for an edge
Would highly recommend for any athlete looking to gain a even the slightest edge over the competition. Very solid strategy backed with supporting information. Highly recommend.
