(What is this?)Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Jack Groppel is a speaker-consultant on business issues and a partner in a company that helps sports stars like Ernie Els and Monica Seles enhance their competitive edge by fine- tuning their training regimens and overall lifestyles. In The Corporate Athlete, he proposes a total programme of nutrition, exercise and spiritual fitness that's designed to do the same for those competing in the world of business. "Executives and employees in the new millennium can protect their health and happiness and continue to perform at high levels only by doing what athletes do--train", Groppel writes. "You must become a Corporate Athlete, which means adapting the training mentality of elite, high-performance athletes." His programme is hardly "a quick fix", Groppel admits, but rather a demanding (albeit versatile) and multi-faceted process with explicit short- and long-term guidelines. He clearly explains how carbohydrates and proteins, stretching and aerobic activity, and even ethics and values affect performance at work, for example, and offers practical suggestions for incorporating them into an already overcrowded day. He concludes by outlining a complete 21-day improvement programme, which includes day-by-day goals for exercise and meals along with ways to track subsequent accomplishments. Corporate or not, this book is for anyone looking to add balance to an otherwise stressful and hectic work life. --Howard Rothman, Amazon.com
