Marbella, late afternoon, third set. Two sets of my best padel. Then my legs turned to lead, the bandeja went short, the decisions went slow. I didn't lose to my opponent. I lost to my own body.
After that I dug for four years. Not in fitness blogs, but in real studies. I wanted to know why the crash comes and whether it can be prevented.
I tested everything on myself. Vegetarian, then keto, then back to meat. I worked with hair mineral analyses, with coaching, with self-experiments that sometimes backfired. I made every mistake you can make.
Out of those years grew a system. Not a miracle promise, but physiology, translated into what you eat and drink on match day.
I only promise you what I've tested myself. No more, no less. The book is the shortcut through the four years it took me.
No bro-science, no fairy tales, no shortcuts that don't exist. Only what delivers when the third set begins.
