"Jerry helped me to coach and inspire my teams to reach full potential.
It's a good time for this book."
~ PHIL JACKSON – Head Coach of 11 NBA Championships

“I think this is Jerry's best book yet, a book
that jibes perfectly with my vision for the warriors.”

~ STEVE KERR – Head Coach of World Champion Golden State Warriors and 8-time NBA Champion Player

'The Competitive Buddha' is about the humanistic side of competing and coaching, that of connection, cooperation, compassion, collaboration, and a more mindful way of mastering our craft. You will be able to heighten your joy and happiness while reducing the suffering in your life. Sports are one of the few activities in life that can help you to do this. As a lifelong student of philosophy, psychology, and athletics, Dr. Lynch has learned that this is possible.

Jerry Lynch first learned about extraordinary performance and excellence as a nationally ranked competitive athlete sponsored by Nike, running world class times from 5,000 meters to the marathon, setting an American record in the half-marathon, winning a National Championship and many other other races against athletes half his age. He took what he learned about himself and life from his competitive days and parlayed it into a dynamic successful career helping athletes and coaches in all sports to use his strategies to up their game and discover the best version of themselves. His approach is deeply informed by Buddhism, Taoism, and other spiritual traditions.
