Description

Best-selling author and award-winning adventurer Ross Edgley has been studying the art of resilience for years, applying all he has learned to become the first person in history to swim all the way round Great Britain, breaking multiple world records along the way. Now, Ross turns his attention to mental strength and Stoicism.

Ross Edgley famously ran a marathon pulling a 1.4-tonne car and climbed a rope the height of Everest (8,848 m), after living with Yamabushi warrior monks in Japan and partaking in Shamanic pain rituals with fire ants in the Amazon jungle. On his epic 1,780-mile journey around Great Britain, which lasted 157 days, Ross swam through giant jellyfish, arctic storms, ‘haunted’ whirlpools and polluted shipping lanes, going so hard, and so fast, his tongue fell apart.

Ross’ previous book, The World’s Fittest Book, was a Sunday Times number one best seller and explored the science of physical fitness. Now, in The Art of Resilience, Ross uses his swim experience and other amazing endurance feats, where he managed to overcome seemingly insurmountable pain, hardship and adversity, to study the performance of extreme athletes, military and fitness specialists and psychologists to uncover the secrets of mental fitness and explore the concept of resilience, persistence, valour and a disciplined mind-set in overcoming adversity. This groundbreaking work represents a paradigm shift in what we thought the human body and mind were capable of and will give you a blueprint to become a tougher, more resilient and ultimately better human - whatever the challenge you face.  

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio on our Desktop Site.

amazing and encouraging story

overall amazing story and achievement. I found it very encouraging, informative and profound.

narration is also great.

my only negative - as Ross said at the end- the book is not just telling of the story but also philosophy to sport science. and although the research is amazing, the stoicism gets a bit boring and repetitive, if you are listening the book for the story aspect of it. if you are interested in stoicism - you'll love it, but if you are not - you might quit half way through and maybe come back later.

nonetheless- highly recommend.

A pleasure to listen to

I remember hearing of Ross’s journey on social media when the swim was taking place. When he told his story on The Joe Rogan experience following the swim, I was fascinated by his tale and his enthusiasm. As a man who swam competitively for more than a decade, it’s not the swim that kept me entertained (although it certainly did impress me beyond words), it was Ross’s puppy-like enthusiasm and tenacity at which he completed his journey.

Deeply philosophical and intelligent in his approach, Ross and his crew’s personal journey follows in the footsteps of so many heroes and brave-souled adventurers and is a testament of human will. Truly one of the best physical and mental achievements I have ever had the pleasure of hearing.

Great writer and narrator

Loved it, would highly recommend! Small section roughly in the middle goes a little too much into details and drags on a little too long about swimming technique, but otherwise a great read!

A must to change mindset when training

This book is a must to read and you’ll enjoy it more thanks to Ross’s narration! I highly recommend it to anyone who’s training for something or not as you will definitely learn that while it can be mental, if you are resilient, your body and mind will flow effortlessly.

A Nail Biting Exploration of Human Limits

I have the utmost respect for Ross Edgley and his crew. To do something that no one else ever has done and achieve it without serious harm or delays is the basis for my respect. Along with having a great sense of humor Ross’s story telling is captivating.

Simply inspiring

What a wonderful book. I love the way Ross sectioned out the chapters with lessons he learned along his great journey. Even though he is super-human-Poseidon-level-god, he makes every point so relatable and understandable… even for us not so educated sports enthusiast.

I could not recommend this book more. It was a delight from start to finish. After I finished it, I went right on YouTube and watched the Red Bull series documenting his swim.
