LISTEN
EPISODE 1
THE LIE ABOUT WILLPOWER
Why willpower is a feeling, not a resource — and the structure that runs whether the feeling shows up or not. Standards versus goals, and the smallest non-negotiable that survives a bad day.
EPISODE 5
THE FIXED WINDOW: SLEEP AS INFRASTRUCTURE
Sleep isn't recovery from the work — it's where the work becomes results. The five-element protocol: fixed window, wind-down, protected environment, substance cutoffs, and the testosterone cost of five hours a night.
EPISODE 6
MOSTLY EASY, OCCASIONALLY VERY HARD
What elite endurance athletes' training distribution actually looks like, the three mechanisms behind muscle growth, and why the farmer's carry is the single most direct movement in the entire protocol.
EPISODE 10
EIGHT MEN, ONE TENT
The Legion's contubernium rebuilt for modern life — why fifty percent greater survival isn't hyperbole, and the two-to-three-person accountability structure that holds the standard when personal discipline runs out.
EPISODE 12
THE HOSPITAL BUILT BEFORE THE BARRACKS
Hormesis, cold exposure, and why the deload week isn't a reward — it's a required component of adaptation. The book's closing chapter, and the one line that closes the whole year: Battle Hard.

QUESTIONS READERS ASK
HOW IS THE BOOK ORGANIZED?+
365 short daily entries across twelve monthly pillars. Each entry has a quote, a short reading and a single action to take that day.
DO I HAVE TO START ON JANUARY 1?+
No. The author says you don't have to read it in order. Open it to today and start there.
WHAT IF I MISS A DAY?+
The book is built for that moment. Early entries ask you to restart without explaining the miss, and the third month teaches a three-question review for days that don't go as planned.
IS IT A WORKOUT PROGRAM?+
No. It is a daily reading and action book. Some months cover strength, sleep, nutrition and recovery, but it is not a week-by-week training plan.
IS THIS MEDICAL ADVICE?+
No. The book is educational. Talk to your physician before changing exercise, nutrition or supplements.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Will Power is the founder of Will Power Protocols, built around a simple idea: people make better decisions when they understand the science behind them. A Marine veteran and lifelong competitive athlete, he has completed more than 300 races across triathlon, road races, cross-country, track and field, Tough Mudder, CrossFit, and Orangetheory competition, is a four-time Ironman finisher, and qualified for USA Triathlon Nationals as a Clydesdale athlete. He writes each book as a research project: claims sourced to the primary literature, cited in place, and where the evidence is thin or mixed, the book says so. He is not a physician, dietitian, researcher, healthcare provider, lawyer, or financial advisor — these books are educational, not individualized medical, financial, or legal advice. Battle Hard.
