Alistair Brownlee is the only triathlete in history to successfully defend an Olympic gold medal – he won his first at London 2012 and backed it up by repeating the trick in Rio in 2016. He is also a two-time world champion, a four-time European champion and the 2014 Commonwealth champion

Basically - Alistair's trophy cabinet is overflowing.

The theme of this week’s conversation is – peak performance. We discuss a number of topics including - the power of instinct and flow, as well as the importance of preparation and letting go. We cover taking calculated risks, how you don’t need to feel confident to be successful and how a lack of connection can lead to burnout – something many people can relate to over the last couple of years of lockdowns and remote working, as well as Alistair's book called Relentless.

Finally, a huge thanks to my sponsors, Puresport. Their range of CBD and Nootropics supplements have had a significant impact on how I sleep, manage stress, and focus throughout the day. I can’t recommend them enough.

CBD has been shown to have benefits for anxiety, inflammation, aches and pains - and it may even be good for long term brain and heart health. And anything that helps keep me well in the long-term rather than having to fix lots of niggles once they arrive gets the thumbs up from me. Combined with their supplements range, Puresport are paving the way in the natural wellness market.

Frankly, if nothing else, you have to try their Unwind Oil before bed. You’ll sleep like a baby. The good news is that you can get 20% off with code Life20 at checkout. Head to puresportcbd.com and enjoy!
