The Performance
Project

Science. Performance. Real Life.

Everyone has an opinion. Few have read the study.

The Performance Project is a research-led podcast and newsletter about performing better in real life. We read the studies on training, nutrition, recovery and psychology, explain what they actually found, and turn them into habits you can use.
