From the opening pages

However, I would be willing to bet that many individuals miss the mark on at least one of these. Focusing on power cleans, depth jumps, and triple extensions are great for your power athletes but does any of that even matter if those athletes are only sleeping 4 hours per night? I would argue “no.”

Fundamentals first and foremost.

RISE & GRIND? TRY SLEEP IN & WIN

Can I jump over two or three guys like I used to? No. Am I as fast as I used to be? No, but I still have the fundamentals and smarts. That’s what enables me to still be a dominant player. As a kid growing up, I never skipped steps. I always worked on fundamentals because I know athleticism is fleeting.

Most high school athletes are nutrient deficient to some extent. Hell, most adults are not consuming two weekly servings of fatty fish along with 7-10 daily servings of fruit and vegetables. So, are we really going to assume that high school athletes are well-nourished given their incessant diet of Pop-Tarts, Skittles, and Little Debbie Cakes?

It's time to teach athletes how to eat well. One way to do this is to NOT put too much focus on losing weight or gaining weight. Since food choices will be something they deal with for the entirety of their lives, athletes should form a healthy relationship with food early on.
