Why read it?
1 author picked Do Hard Things as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Speaking of doing hard things, this excellent book contextualizes peak performance in sports and life. It straddles and bridges these two worlds, helping me understand why my training is a chance to develop life skills that work in any arena. And it uses plenty of evidence-based science to do that!

From Sage's list on books for athletes who want to up their game.
