In Fit for Success, author Nick Shaw details the habits successful people have in common and how we can develop those same habits to thrive - despite our obstacles. Using what’s he’s learned over the past decade, Nick has helped top athletes and hundreds of thousands of people around the world through his company Renaissance Periodization to look, feel, and perform their best.

But it wasn’t until 2020 - when his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer and facing the fallout of treatment for months through COVID-19 - that he had to really lean into the habits he was teaching and put them to the ultimate test. This book vividly outlines the lessons he’s learned, some valuable takeaways, and most importantly, how you can use these habits to build your own path to success.

In this book, Nick has skillfully drawn a road map for creating and implementing those habits, so you can find success as well.” (Rich Froning, eight-time CrossFit Games champion)
