Customer Reviews

Perfect for the struggling adult/young adult athlete!

As a sports performance consultant and adult competitive athlete, I audibly laughed at this audiobook and am also purchasing the hard copy to use while I work with my older youth (after checking with parents, due to colorful language). I have recommended this book so many times already. Great info and very VERY entertaining!
