  A BIKE AT LARGE - Ordeals on Wheels

  A Bike at Large is the fourth book in Jo’s ‘At Large’ series. 
  When he was overtaken by a jogger on a borrowed mountain bike, Jo knew it was time for drastic action. Welcome to the world of a man in his 60s and his new e-bike. 
  His first injury occurred within one foot! Setting off for his first practice ride round a car park, he misjudged the width of the handlebars and scraped his hand on the cycle shop’s stone wall. 
  ‘You’ll go places you’ll never have dreamed of,’ said the shop owner. Prophetic words indeed. Eighteen hours later Jo was embedded in his neighbours hedge due to a clothing malfunction. Fortunately, before setting out he’d put his ego and self-esteem in the top drawer in the kitchen. 
  With the emergency ambulance on speed-dial, Jo climbs a steep learning curve on a series of mini adventures throughout the north of England, mercifully with a diminishing distance to injury ratio. 
  By calling his e-bike a ‘Lifestyle Investment’, it took his wife’s mind off the cost. At the time she needed some new slippers, so it was a sensitive issue. Asked whether he was searching for eternal youth? ‘Not really,’ he said, ‘more trying to keep out of my eternal hole in the ground.’ 
  Fuelled by red wine and optimism, off he goes………

  Zokology - Change Your...

  Zokology isn't just a book about golf. It's about learning to think when the way you've always thought is no longer working. And for Dick Zokol, that meant learning how to navigate the noise in his head and figuring out how to survive on the PGA TourZokol's Cinderella story began when he "walked on" the Brigham Young University golf team. Four years later, he captained BYU to victory in the NCAA championship. Later that summer, he won the Canadian Amateur and got through the notorious PGA Tour Q-School. But the fairy tale ended, and Zokol struggled as a rookie on the PGA Tour. Dealing with intense anxiety, expectations, and feeling he didn't belong, he battled the loneliness of life on the road. He was soon desperately searching for something that would help him find solid ground. From here, Zokol opens up about the real stuff—the mental and emotional toil that defined his twenty-two years on the PGA Tour. His two wins on the PGA Tour, both in 1992, were evidence his path had taken hold.In his career, Zokol played over 450 Tour events and learned success wasn't about the golf swing—success and failure are about your mind. Employing a thought protocol can get you through those difficult situations. Zokology is raw, real, and sometimes uncomfortable. It's a guide for when you get off track—on the course or just in your own mind.

  Bulk Like the Hulk - Easy Muscle...

  What does it feel like to be jacked? 
  I can tell you in a single word: it feels incredible. 
  Being very strong and taking up a lot of physical space changes the entire way you feel about yourself and the way that others perceive you as well. Suddenly, you become a physical presence and people can’t help but sit up and take notice. You become indomitable, immovable and powerful and as a result, everything you say has more weight and more gravity to it. 
  People listen. 
  Bulking changes other things too. When you feel that powerful and you notice the way people start treating you, you can’t help but feel far more confident too. This changes the way you walk, the way you hold yourself and the way that you present yourself. You walk like someone unstoppable and that only increases that sense of presence. 
  And then there are all the direct and practical ways that gaining muscle changes your life. You start to win play fights with your mates, you become better at sports and people start asking you to help them lift things. 
  You know, it’s just a great feeling to be thought of as someone capable and powerful – instead of being the little guy who is the butt of jokes all the time! 
  And being jacked also helps you to get attention from the opposite sex. You look amazing in all your clothes – you can fill out a suit and your arms pop from white vests – and all that power and confidence is simply highly attractive to people. 
  You’ll even find that you start getting your way more in work and in the rest of your life, as people start to take you more seriously. That, and physical prowess correlates with improved brain power, you can expect to start thinking better too! 
  But maybe you’re not bothered about all that. Maybe you’re simply looking for a way to bulk up so you can become stronger and better at your sport. Perhaps you’re a bodybuilder?
