About this listen

 The legendary seven-time CrossFit Games champion and Olympic athlete shares lessons from her inspiring story of leveling up her performance, embracing failure, and fiercely taking on impossible goals.

Tia Toomey, the world's fittest woman, has won the CrossFit Games an incredible seven times and is undeniably a true warrior. She has also trained for the Winter Olympics in bobsledding, competed in the Summer Olympics in weightlifting and was a Commonwealth Games gold medalist. She is, in short, one of the most accomplished and dominant athletes in human history. But for Tia physical fitness is only a small part of overall strength. More important is building mental toughness.

In THE HEART IS THE STRONGEST MUSCLE, Tia shows how she reached elite levels by focusing on her "why." By always having a clear picture of her purpose - what drives her heart - she can push through the toughest challenges. From the early days of her fitness journey to the peak performance that has put her atop the podium in the CrossFit Games, Tia reveals the secrets, struggles, and successes that have made her a killer competitor.

Nothing comes easy, but in THE HEART IS THE STRONGEST MUSCLE, Tia will show you how to build your own unstoppable mindset. Whether you are already a serious athlete or someone looking to conquer a new challenge, you'll be able to use her methods to keep winning.©2024 Tia Toomey (P)2024 Hachette Audio UK Sports Sports Psychology Women Physical Exercise Olympics Game

Critic reviews

Tia Toomey is one of the greatest athletes in the history of sports. You don't become that without a bulletproof mindset. Champions are built in the mind first, and Tia understands exactly how to do that (Andy Frisella, entrepreneur, creator of 75 Hard and Real AF podcast)
Tia Toomey knows that being a fierce competitor is about more than just the body. Her wisdom in this book will help keep your mind sharp and heart full (Michael Easter, author of THE COMFORT CRISIS and SCARCITY BRAIN)
I have been honored to closely follow the journey and success of Tia Toomey as a high-level CrossFit athlete. But more impressive has been following her development and journey as a person. This book gives a wonderful glimpse into all aspects of her amazing journey (Dave Castro, director and programmer of the CrossFit Games)

brilliant book. I wondered at the start if it was gonna be the same as Tia's first book... but stick with it from ch3 onwards it really does get better. I've listened on audible,but will be buying the book (as I did Tia's first book) because there's bits in I want to refer to and make notes in the margin again.

fantastic

Tia is incredible!

As a budding athlete, I’m so impressed with Tia and her journey. She describes her experience with such humility that it makes it difficult not to fall in love with her story. I’m definitely a Tia fan now.

I love this book and particularly that Tia narrated it herself. I've watched Tias journey for many years, and was lucky to be there to see her win her 7th CF games title in 2024. Tia is remarkable, resilient and determined. If you want tips on how to set goals and achieve them, listen to this book.

Inspiring

Ive loved watching tia and was so excited for this but i couldn’t really tell you what this book is or what it does (or doesn’t) do
Its part autobiography, little bit self help, a lot of saying how tia is better than everyone else. Also found the narration hard to listen to

So disappointing 😢
