Sinopse

Functional Fitness Training introduces readers to a comprehensive approach that moves beyond traditional isolated exercises, focusing on real-world strength and agility. The book highlights the importance of integrated, multi-joint movements to improve movement patterns and coordination, enhancing overall athleticism and reducing the risk of injury. Functional training prioritizes quality movement, ensuring that exercises translate to everyday activities and sports performance. Interestingly, it challenges conventional fitness myths by advocating for training programs built on fundamental movement patterns like squatting, hinging, pushing, pulling, and carrying.

 
The book progresses through three core sections: foundational principles of functional movement, application across various training modalities such as bodyweight, kettlebell, and suspension training, and personalized program integration. It uses scientific research, expert opinions, and case studies to support its arguments, connecting principles from physical therapy, sports science, and rehabilitation for a holistic view. A key feature is its emphasis on movement variability, encouraging exploration of different patterns for a more resilient body. This approach ensures adaptability while improving overall health and well-being, making it valuable for fitness professionals, athletes, and anyone seeking enhanced functional fitness.

The Adoptee's Journey - From...

Cameron Lee Small

Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
Every adoption is rooted in loss.
Adoption is often framed by happy narratives, but the reality is that many adoptees struggle with unaddressed trauma and issues of identity and belonging. Adoptees often spend the majority of their youth without the language to explore the grief related to adoption or the permission to legitimize their conflicting emotions.
Adoptee and counselor Cameron Lee Small names the realities of the adoptee's journey, narrating his own and other adoptees' stories in all their complexity. He unpacks the history of how adoption has worked and names how the church influenced adoption practices with unintended negative impacts on adoptees' faith. Small's own tumultuous search for and reunion with his mother in Korea inspired him to help other adoptees navigate what it means to carry multiple stories. His adoptee-centered advocacy helps adoptees regain their agency and identity on a journey of integration and healing, with meaningful relationships in all their family systems.
