Second Souffle
Le Sport Après 50 ans
Mon dernier livre édité par les éditions En Exergue - Paris est disponible dans toutes les bonnes librairies depuis le 10 avril 2026.
Un Guide Pratique pour Se Remettre en Mouvement.
Une approche accessible, progressive et durable de la marche et de la course à pied après 50 ans. Loin des injonctions à la performance et des modèles d’entraînement complexes, une invitation à retrouver le plaisir du mouvement, à écouter ses sensations et à privilégier la régularité.
À travers des programmes progressifs de marche, des conseils de reprise en endurance et une réflexion globale sur l’alimentation, le sommeil et la gestion du stress, Second souffle propose un véritable changement de paradigme : bouger pour durer.
