How Bad Do You Want It?

by Matt Fitzgerald

Description

Elite endurance performance is shaped by more than physical conditioning—it depends on motivation, resilience, and the ability to manage perceived effort under pressure. Drawing on compelling stories from athletes such as Greg LeMond, Siri Lindley, and John “The Penguin” Bingham, this book explores how mindset can determine whether competitors endure, falter, or find another level. It examines the psychology of choking, self-belief, discomfort, and letting go of rigid expectations, showing how athletes can transform difficult moments into opportunities for breakthroughs. Accessible to everyone from elite competitors to recreational runners, it offers an insightful look at mastering the mind’s influence over muscle.
