Raise The Bar is a narrative motivational book - with practical take homes too - that focuses on lessons and advice about drive, setbacks, defying expectations, support systems and challenging accepted behaviours, all told through stories and insight from Ben, who understands what it takes to set and achieve personal goals and who motivates others daily to do the same.
Using the principles behind maintaining a healthy mind and body, Ben wants to show you how to live beyond your limits right now and lay a positive foundation for your future self.

Ben has a down to earth personality and a very practical, positive outlook on everything. He’s relatable, smart, and so is his book.
Brilliant book to get one re-focus and evaluate and check in with themselves
Very honest , straightforward easy read book that like Ben says, it provides great tools for people to evaluate where they are and what they need to do to Raise That Bar … an excellent read
Raising The Bar
I listened to this over a few days on CarPlay, and, as I have a Peloton bike, I felt as if I had an idea of Ben’s background. It wasn't until his book launch and listening to this, there's so much more to him. This isn't an autobiography or a self-help book, and I feel it combines both. If you don't already know Ben’s story, this is an excellent opportunity to do so. If you do, this helps you to understand him, his story and his journey to where he is now.
I'd recommend this book to anyone looking for an alternative to an autobiography, as it gives an insight into a story that's relatable to and that your paths aren't always set in stone.
