Synopsis

There's more to endurance performance than training. Best-selling author and coach Matt Fitzgerald gives athletes 25 practical lessons to unlock their true potential and master their sport.

Every athlete's pursuit of performance will eventually become a game of diminishing returns. Matt Fitzgerald invites endurance athletes to focus on mastery, and performance will follow.

The path to mastery goes well beyond an athlete's training program and stretches beyond the realm of sport. The end goal is for the athlete to realize their full potential, which will elevate their experience both in their sport and the rest of life.

Fitzgerald identifies five pillars of mastery:

Motivation: How You Feel
Learning: What to Do
Understanding: Why It Works
Individuation: How It Works for You
Challenge: How to Push Your Limits

Drawing lessons from sports, history, psychology, and science, Fitzgerald shakes up the traditional paradigm of athlete development with thought-provoking ideas and valuable practices. Chasing Mastery is a springboard for athletes of all ages and abilities to engage their true potential.
