Sage Rountree will present her new books: the revised edition of The Athlete’s Guide to Recovery, 2nd ed and The Art of Yoga Sequencing. The Athlete’s Guide to Recovery is an invaluable guide to help athletes maximize training gains by making the most of their recovery time. Recovery—physical and mental—is a red-hot topic, and the worlds of sports, technology, and commerce have all taken note. But which practices and devices really make a difference in recovery, and which should be avoided? What will truly maximize performance? Emphasizing the fundamentals of sleep, nutrition, and stress management, this second edition features up-to-date research that has emerged to support the importance of these basic recovery strategies and includes a much-needed, careful look at new devices on the market. Whether self-coached, coached, or team-sport athletes, The Athlete’s Guide to Recovery provides readers with an evidence-based approach to finding the right balance between stress and rest. The Art of Yoga Sequencing is an inclusive guide for yoga teachers and practitioners to create balanced movement sequences and well-rounded classes for all students. Rountree’s approach to teaching grows from a simple truth: bodies feel better when they move in many different ways and directions.

The fix is clear: Real students need simple lessons taught clearly. Yoga teacher, trainer, and bestselling author Sage Rountree draws on years of expert experience to offer a fresh, contemporary approach to yoga sequencing and mindful movement that reflects the diversity and meets the needs of the modern yogi. Sage Rountree, PhD, is the preeminent authority in yoga for athletes, a […]
