Not everyone is a fighter.
Everyone is fighting something.
You do not need an opponent to know what pressure feels like. Sometimes the fight is a difficult decision, a setback you cannot stop replaying or the responsibility of staying steady when other people depend on you.

FAQ
Questions before you order.
When will my hardcover ship?
In Your Corner is scheduled for release on October 22, 2026. Pre-orders ship within a few days of release and no later than October 31, 2026. You’ll receive a shipping confirmation with tracking as soon as your parcel is dispatched; delivery time then depends on your destination and carrier. The eBook arrives by email on release day.
When am I charged?
When you place your order: a pre-order is paid in full at checkout.
What if I need to change or cancel my order?
Use the contact page or your order confirmation. The details are in our refund policy.
Which countries do you ship to?
We ship to the United States, Canada, Germany and Austria. Shipping is free to the US, Canada and Germany; to Austria it costs €9.00. Orders to Germany and Austria are sent from Germany, so there are no customs charges, and prices there are in euros and include VAT. More countries are coming soon.
When do I get the presale bonuses?
Right after your pre-order: your presale status is active, behind-the-scenes updates arrive by email during the presale, and the private live event follows after release.
Can I get the eBook too?
Yes. Add it to your hardcover or bundle for $14.99 during the presale ($19.99 after): tick “Add the official eBook” when you review your order. It arrives by email on October 22, 2026, so you can start reading before your hardcover arrives – on your phone, tablet or e-reader.
Can I order In Your Corner anywhere else?
Right now, pre-orders are open only here, in the official In Your Corner store. The presale exclusives and any presale pricing apply only to orders placed in this store; orders from other shops or platforms don’t qualify.
Is this a signed edition?
No. The presale edition offered here is the official hardcover; it is not a signed edition.
Can I order for my gym, team or company?
Yes. From ten bundles upwards there is a better price, one delivery to one address and a few things your team cannot buy in the shop. See Team packs.
When is the private event?
It is planned for approximately two weeks after release. We will confirm the date, time and time zone. Private access details are sent shortly before the event to eligible customers.
What does Priority Access mean?
Earlier access to selected future Javier offers, subject to the terms and availability of each offer. It does not mean every future event is free or that a place is guaranteed.
Is this book only for MMA fans?
No. The stories come from a life in combat sports, but the book is about discipline, willpower and mental strength in everyday life.
Is the reader bonus in the book the same as the presale exclusives?
No. The reader bonus printed in the book is available to readers of that edition. It is separate from the official-shop presale exclusives.
