  Born to Climb - From rock...

  Climbing is one of the world's fastest-growing sports – exciting, addictive and, arguably, much more fun than going to the gym. In 2021 it made its long-awaited Olympic debut, but its journey to Tokyo has been anything but traditional. And the traditionalists would argue that it's not even a sport at all …
  In Born to Climb, anthropologist and climber Zofia Reych shares with us the fascinating cultural history of rock and competition climbing. Zofia offers a fresh perspective on some of the pivotal moments and outstanding individuals of the sport, from eighteenth-century exploratory forays on rock, via the rise of climbing legends such as Emilio Comici, Wolfgang Güllich and Lynn Hill, to the limelight of the Olympic arena for the stars of today – Janja Garnbret, Adam Ondra, Shauna Coxsey and more.
  But Born to Climb is much more than a celebration of the sport's famous people and places: it is an examination of modern sporting participation and culture, interwoven with the author's own climbing journey. While the writing is engaging and often funny, Zofia is not afraid to broach sensitive and often overlooked topics, including gender divide, capitalism and the tension between aesthetic and athletic approaches to climbing, in what is a must-read for all climbers.

  The Science of Muscle Growth -...

  Muscle growth, also known as muscle hypertrophy, is a complex process influenced by various factors including exercise, nutrition, genetics, and recovery. Understanding how muscles grow is essential for anyone looking to enhance their physique or improve physical performance. In this chapter, we will explore the fundamental principles behind muscle growth, the anatomy of muscles, and the role genetics play in shaping an individual's ability to build muscle. 
  At its core, muscle growth occurs when muscle fibers undergo stress or damage, usually as a result of resistance training. This process, known as muscle fiber microtearing, stimulates the body to repair the damaged fibers by fusing them together, making the muscle thicker and stronger over time. This adaptation process is key to building muscle mass and strength. 
  The human body has different types of muscle fibers: slow-twitch (Type I) and fast-twitch (Type II). Slow-twitch fibers are more endurance-oriented and are activated during prolonged, low-intensity activities like running or cycling. Fast-twitch fibers, on the other hand, are recruited during short bursts of high-intensity activities such as sprinting or weightlifting. Fast-twitch fibers have a greater potential for growth and are the primary target of resistance training, making them crucial for anyone focused on muscle building.
