Klappentext

Sprint out of pain and into your full athletic potential to live, move, and perform with purpose.

Born to Sprint is a practical and insightful guide to overcoming pain and sprinting again at any age. Most people think of sprinting as a rare achievement reserved for elite competitors. While the best in the world take it to another level, everyone is born to sprint. It’s a fundamental ability that kept our ancestors alive when life became dangerous. In fact, sprinting is the clearest marker of a healthy, capable human.

The path back to this essential ability will reconnect the parts of your body that modern life and stagnant fitness routines have pushed into hiding. By safely reintroducing impact and plyometrics, your connective tissue will bounce back to life. You will find that spring in your step and lightness in your movement that you thought were gone with your youth. Learning to sprint again is your path back to a fully active life.

Born to Sprint will show you how to:

• Break through the limiting beliefs that keep you tense, guarded, and unathletic

• Understand your mysterious aches and pains to overcome chronic injury for good

• Mobilize and strengthen every joint of your body through more than 100 drills

• Relearn how to walk, run, skip, jump, throw, and sprint to reclaim all your physical abilities

• Calibrate your focus on the movements that matter for a present mind and athletic body

More than just a book about sprinting, Born to Sprint is about becoming a whole human.
