    A guide to self-mastery and other lessons based on the principles of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, by the sport's greatest practitioner of all time. This program includes a foreword written by actor Tom Hardy and read by Mark Meadows.As a ten-time Brazilian jiu jitsu World Champion and a former MMA World Champion, Roger Gracie is widely considered to be the greatest practitioner of Brazilian jiu jitsu of all time.His grandfather, the great Carlos Gracie, was the architect of modern day Brazilian jiu jitsu and for Roger, growing up in the famous Gracie family, every conversation seemed to be about fighting,Within this family of supermen, this self-contained, chubby kid promised little; in fact, nobody expected Roger to become the warrior he later did. But once he had made up his mind as a teenager to become the greatest, Roger's star was firmly aligned with his purpose. Over time, he gradually became unstoppable, both in his thirst for jiu jitsu knowledge and in his single-mindedness to strip back overly complex moves to their simplest most effective forms, just as his grandfather had done before him.In Warrior Mindset: The Tao of a Champion, for the first time, Gracie shares lessons from a career of fighting at the highest level including:-'Learning to breathe',-'Controlling your emotions',-'Mastering your thinking', and '-'Developing Quiet Inner Grace'.Going far beyond the mat, this hard-won wisdom is applicable to everyone from any background and in any walk of life who longs to find strength, courage, health, and peace.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press

    Build Stronger Muscles Bundle, 2 in 1 Bundle: Muscle for Life and Starting StrengthIf you’re like many people, you have a hard time building muscle. You’ve tried every supplement and muscle-building workout routine that promised big, fast gains, but you’re still just as scrawny as the day you decided to start building muscle. There are a few reasons why it’s so hard to build muscle. The first thing that most people do wrong is approach it with the wrong mindset. To put things shortly, in order to build muscle like you want, you need to create a muscle-building lifestyle and really get your head in the game. At that point, muscle-building becomes something more than what you do when you go to the gym. Another misconception is that in order to build muscle and bulk up, the only thing they need to do is lift weights and that's it. If you only lift weights, chances are you would not be getting the results you were looking for. There is so much more involved in bodybuilding than lifting weights. You have to consider nutrition, supplementation, training and a whole lifestyle change.This bundle will teach you about all the essentials in order for you to build muscle mass and keep it that way. Once you have all the information you need, it would help you create a comprehensive plan you can execute. This 2 in 1 bundle includes the following audiobooks:1. Muscle for Life: The Ultimate Guide to Muscle Building, Learn Tips and Expert Advice on How to Build Quality Muscle Mass As Well As The Secrets to Strength Gains2.

    In harmony and balance with the horse – this is every rider's dream. Physical and mental balance are the fundamental prerequisites for a sound partnership of animal and human on any equestrian level.
    There is, however, also the opposite: Why do we see so many beautiless images of animals in Rollkur and with unclean gaits? Voices criticizing today's equestrian sport and training methods geared toward quick successes are getting increasingly loud. Is this criticism justifi ed? How can we turn the tide in the horse's favor?
    Let us start with ourselves! Christoph Ackermann explains how we can bring any horse – healthily and happily – to its respective top performance by schooling the correct balance, handling the horse with affection, and applying consistent, systematic training according to the Training Scale.
    Christoph Ackermann himself actively competes in equestrian sports. In this book, he presents a courageous and searingly honest critique of the established way the sport operates, which will give any horse lover food for thought.
