EACH BOOK INCLUDES REAL-LIFE ANECDOTES FROM THE SPORTS WORLD,

TO INSPIRE YOUNG ATHLETES AND ILLUSTRATE HEALTHY & POWERFUL WAYS

TO HELP THEM FIND THEIR “EDGE.”

Written for young adults, these books

provide young athletes with the facts about their favorite sports: the history

of the sport; how to get in shape, both mentally and physically; how to avoid

injuries; and why performance-enhancing drugs do more to damage sports

careers than they do to build them.
