Sport and physical competition

Competitive sport is one of humanity's great laboratories for learning what the body can do and what the mind does under pressure. The physical demands vary enormously by sport, but the common threads are training load management, injury prevention and recovery, nutrition for performance, and the psychology of competition. Healthy engagement with sport requires honoring both the drive to excel and the body's need for rest, recovery, and longevity beyond the playing years.
