The New York Times Bestseller * Foreword by Malcom Gladwell

Reveals how we can all surpass our perceived physical limits. --Adam Grant

Discover the revolutionary account of the science and psychology of endurance, revealing the secrets of reaching the hidden extra potential within us all. This updated paperback edition features a new afterword.

The capacity to endure is the key trait that underlies great performance in virtually every field. But what if we all can go farther, push harder, and achieve more than we think we're capable of?

Blending cutting-edge science and gripping storytelling in the spirit of Malcolm Gladwell--who contributes the book's foreword--award-winning journalist Alex Hutchinson reveals that a wave of paradigm-altering research over the past decade suggests the seemingly physical barriers you encounter as set as much by your brain as by your body. This means the mind is the new frontier of endurance--and that the horizons of performance are much more elastic than we once thought.

But, of course, it's not all in your head. For each of the physical limits that Hutchinson explores--pain, muscle, oxygen, heat, thirst, fuel--he carefully disentangles the delicate interplay of mind and body by telling the riveting stories of men and women who've pushed their own limits in extraordinary ways.

The longtime Sweat Science columnist for Outside and Runner's World, Hutchinson, a former national-team long-distance runner and Cambridge-trained physicist, was one of only two reporters granted access to Nike's top-secret training project to break the two-hour marathon barrier, an extreme quest he traces throughout the book. But the lessons he draws from shadowing elite athletes and from traveling to high-tech labs around the world are surprisingly universal. Endurance, Hutchinson writes, is the struggle to continue against a mounting desire to stop--and we're always capable of pushing a little farther.

The biggest victories of medical science--over polio, smallpox, heart attacks, and the like--are stories of prevention. Then there's sports, where we just run around until something breaks, leading to pain, frustration, and sometimes even expensive surgery. Injuries are a major cause of society's growing mobility crisis. What if we could predict and prevent them?

Blending cutting-edge science with gripping storytelling, award-winning data journalist and competitive amateur athlete Henry Abbott reveals that we are on the cusp of a new era in sports medicine, built around the science of ballistic movements--leaping and landing--and the unique fingerprint of your body's physics.

Abbott's inspiring narrative tells the story of sports scientist Dr. Marcus Elliott and the Peak Performance Project (P3), who use technology to study how athletes move and why they get hurt. Applying machine learning and lessons from biomechanics, medicine, and physiology, doctors at P3 can now detect elevated risk of an ACL tear or a pulled hamstring like an echocardiogram can see warning signs of a heart attack.

Their data-driven findings are full of surprises. Your body's most important defense against knee and ankle injuries are the little-known muscles in the lower leg and hip area, which typical workouts rarely target. Similarly, the glutes--not the core--do the most to prevent back pain. Transformative benefits flow from training underappreciated kinds of athleticism like rotation, deceleration, and relaxation. Most of all, science shows that the best athletes don't avoid ballistics--they master them.

Through riveting stories of elite athletes overcoming injuries and pushing themselves to the limit, Abbott presents an evidence-based case for intervening early to protect our bodies. And he suggests that we can all harness the science of ballistic movement not just to run fast or jump high but to move with joy and lead fulfilling athletic lives.

Create a personalized movement plan you love.

You've heard of the million benefits of movement, but you can't make it work in your body or your own life.

• Maybe you move a lot at work, and your body is too tired to do the activities you used to enjoy.
• Maybe you're an athlete with nagging injuries keeping you off your game.
• Maybe you want to move more but you don't have the time-or can't because moving hurts.

The best way to approach movement is to think of it like food--we need certain amounts of all different kinds for our bodies to be healthy. My Perfect Movement Plan helps you figure out exactly which types of movement you're already getting, what you might be missing, and where to fit it into your daily life.

This workbook is all about discovering the movement diet your body needs. Not any body, but your body, specifically. Complete dozens of self-assessment questions and worksheets to develop a plan--your perfect plan--for nourishing your body with movement in a way that's sustainable, meaningful, adaptable, and even restful.

Get back to your most joyful activities, uncover new ones--and start savoring the movement in every moment.

A nutritious 'movement diet' is essential to our well-being. This book contains all the ingredients we need. -Mark Hyman, MD, New York Times #1 Bestselling Author of Young Forever, The Pegan Diet, and The Blood Sugar Solution

We make hundreds of movement choices all day long, whether we know it or not: Walk or drive? Sit or stand? Hip to the right or to the left? Heels or flats? So how can we make the choices that leave us feeling and moving-even thinking--our best? It starts with the ways in which our body is positioned throughout the day, whether working, exercising, or resting.

Rethink Your Position is your guide to everyday anatomy and alignment--part by part.

Daily aches and pains can feel unavoidable, but we can start feeling better by moving better.
And moving better starts with our individual body parts, and the relationship between and among those parts and the forces or loads they experience.

Professionals, experienced exercisers, and new-to-movement newbies alike will discover the big and little ways our body parts move. Rethink Your Position explains how to check the way different areas are moving now, includes precision exercises to get important parts moving better, and shows how to support better health by making small changes --not only at the gym, but at the office, in the kitchen, on a walk with friends....even while you're sleeping.

With her trademark clarity and humor, biomechanist, movement teacher, and bestselling author Katy Bowman provides simple, engaging instructions that will have you rethinking your position by reshaping what you're already doing. Learn how to:

• Avoid a tech neck by adjusting your head while looking at your phone
• Set up your computer space to open tight shoulders
• Switch up the way you walk for happier feet and knees
• Care for your hips and psoas muscles by sitting differently
• Adjust your pelvic tilt for a stronger pelvic floor and glutes
• Wake up feeling refreshed by changing your sleep shape
• Find even better form in your regular yoga, Pilates, or fitness workout
• Care for your brain (and mind) with simple movements--like chewing!

Transform how you think about movement. Then watch your whole life change!

Who This Book Is For
This book is for people who have tried multiple mind-body paths and still feel frustrated that they can't see the changes they seek. It's not a beginner's book! It assumes you have practice paying attention to subtle signals from your body. It also assumes a baseline of physical capacity-- you can move in and out of a chair without assistance and you can walk for 30 minutes outside without getting out of breath.

Book includes 6 instructional videos. You do NOT need to pay for these videos + do NOT need a smart phone. Register your email using the link in the book to receive the video links and 2 other bonuses.

NOTE: As of Dec. 2023 all links in the Kindle version above the QR codes are corrected.

If the exercise in the excerpt below speaks to you, you'll benefit from this practical guide.

What's Your Body Saying to You?
The entire organization of the body broadcasts messages internally that you can't ignore, whether you're conscious of them or not. Physical sensations feed how you think and feel. You know this already-you're not a beginner. You do yoga, meditation, tai chi-you know how much returning to your body calms your mind. Or, maybe you've heard this is true but just don't know how to get there.

Once you understand the signals, you'll discover that your body is as powerful as your brain when it comes to solving problems. When you understand the signals you can:

● feel more physical comfort
● find more emotional calm
● get more clarity for action

In this book you'll learn how to make sense of body messages so you can feel whole and empowered, connected within yourself so you can connect with others and move forward in your life with clear intention. This approach uses a deep dive into your posture and walking to make that happen.

Self-Control vs. Self-Regulation
When you learn how to find your sensing posture, you learn to distinguish between self-control and self-regulation. Self-control is suppression to stop or prevent the body from doing what it's doing. It's a hierarchical approach that says: top controls bottom.

Self-regulation is giving the body what it needs so it can do things better. It's a relational approach that says: bottom informs top, and the conversation goes both ways. You learn self-regulation by understanding and responding to the body's needs.

Before you read any further, let's try an example of how this might work in your body...

Stand with your feet 2-3 inches apart. Now, do the following: move internally and imagine you are doing it so no one can notice it. Position your pelvis as if you are about to take a seat and send your shins forward at the same time. Remember, it's an internal shift, imperceptible to observers. Take at least 30 seconds to notice what happens. Take longer if you wish.

What changed for you? How did you feel in the whole of your body?

If you feel more grounded and settled, more spacious and open in the chest, or more relaxed in your shoulders, that's a good sign. If not, try it with your eyes closed. It's such a minor change to stand this way, yet the change in your whole body experience can be significant.

Now position your head to listen to the sounds around you and keep doing what you did above. Imagine you are waiting in line somewhere. Imagine people around you are impatient and stressed about waiting in line.

How do you feel? What has changed now?

Our perception of our environment and the people in it can disturb our inner sense of calm. That's the conflict that many methods don't address - how do you get back to internal calm, power, and ease when you need it most? This book sets out to answer that question.

Written in a casual style by a somatic movement expert, thousands have already benefitted from using this simple, elegant approach.
