Sinossi

Endurance Training Basics explores the core principles of endurance training, from exercise physiology to practical application for athletes of all levels. It emphasizes the importance of structured, evidence-based training to maximize performance and minimize injury risk. Did you know understanding how your body uses energy during prolonged activity (energy systems) and carefully planning training to stimulate beneficial adaptations are key to improving and reducing injury?

 
This book avoids a one-size-fits-all approach, focusing instead on tailoring training plans to individual goals and capabilities. The book progresses systematically, beginning with core concepts like VO2 max and lactate threshold, and then moves through long slow distance training, interval training, strength and conditioning, nutrition, and recovery strategies.

 
Guidance on creating personalized training plans, addressing challenges, and optimizing performance is provided. The book will give you actionable advice to optimize fueling strategies and promote tissue repair, ultimately empowering you to take control of your training and enhance your cardiovascular health.

Walk On: Inside Arne Slot's...

James Pearce

‘The story of an unforgettable season’ Virgil van Dijk
The definitive chronicle of Liverpool's footballing renaissance under Arne Slot, filled with exclusive interviews and unparalleled insight
An engrossing and inspiring account of a new manager’s remarkable rise to prominence.
Arne Slot arrived at Liverpool FC with little fanfare but a burning ambition. As a relatively unknown figure in English football, his appointment was met with scepticism. How could he hope to step into the shoes of the club’s greatest manager of the modern era? High drama and era-defining results would follow; unprecedented achievements, and pain too. But what was it like from the inside?
James Pearce, Liverpool correspondent for the Athletic, draws on exclusive interviews and unparalleled behind-the-scenes insight to tell an unmissable story of a season, and a Premier League victory, like no other.
From Slot’s beginnings as ‘The Bergkamp of Bergentheim’ to Liverpool’s deft use of player data; from the high drama of turning-point matches to the backroom negotiations around keeping talent like Mohammad Salah at Anfield, Pearce retells Liverpool’s dramatic recent history in enthralling detail and at addictive pace.
Walk On is the book for any Liverpool fan to understand just how Slot transformed Liverpool into Premier League champions, and how he intends to keep them there.
With an exclusive interview with Liverpool chairman Tom Werner, the book also features conversations with Arne Slot, chief executive Billy Hogan, captain Virgil van Dijk, Curtis Jones, Ryan Gravenberch, Harvey Elliott, former assistant manager Pep Lijnders, former director of research Ian Graham, and a number of ex-Liverpool players including Sander Westerveld and Dirk Kuyt.
In his latest biography, Pearce offers a fascinating insight into the world of professional soccer, exploring the psychology of coaching and the journey of an up-and-coming talent. This non-fiction work is a must-read for sports enthusiasts, providing a unique perspective on the challenges and triumphs of leading a top team.
