Sinopsis

Recovery Methods offers a comprehensive guide to post-exercise recovery, designed to help athletes of all levels optimize their performance and prevent injuries. This book emphasizes that recovery is an active process, not just rest, and delves into the science behind effective techniques.

Discover how methods like cryotherapy, particularly ice baths, and massage therapy can reduce inflammation and improve circulation, directly addressing the physiological stressors of intense physical activity. Targeted stretching is also explored, restoring muscle function and flexibility.

The book explains the body's response to exercise, including inflammatory processes and muscle fiber damage, without requiring advanced scientific knowledge. It argues that a strategic recovery plan, tailored to individual needs, is as vital as training itself.

Each section provides detailed instructions, safety guidelines, and scientific rationales for techniques like dynamic, static, and PNF stretching. Practical examples and case studies illustrate how to integrate these methods into personalized recovery plans, based on sports, training volumes, and individual characteristics.

Uniquely, Recovery Methods emphasizes individualization, providing tools to tailor recovery strategies rather than advocating a one-size-fits-all approach. Starting with the fundamentals of exercise physiology, the book progresses through specific recovery methods, culminating in personalized recovery plans.

This approach ensures readers can apply the information to real-world scenarios, leading to reduced muscle soreness, improved performance, and decreased injury risk.

Ron Shandler

An entertaining and incisive chronicle from one of the foremost authorities in fantasy baseball 
 
 
 
Ron Shandler is a self-described rotoholic. In the beginning, he hoarded newspaper box scores and pored over every number at his disposal. Then came the compulsion to create his own numbers. A monthly newsletter expanded into an annual Baseball Forecaster book, which spawned a media company, websites, tournaments, and more. 
 
 
 
Part memoir, part madcap history, Fantasy Expert is a fascinating and wide-ranging look at the modern growth and development of the game that went from cottage industry to national obsession. 
 
 
 
In chronicling his own escalating journey from rotisserie baseball hobbyist to professional authority, Shandler tells parallel tales of the rise of fantasy sports, the expanding baseball information industry, the increasingly sophisticated technology employed to gain an edge, and the fellow rotoholics who make it all possible. He also delves into the impact of fantasy baseball on the sport of baseball itself. 
 
 
 
Written with humor, honesty, and a deep passion for baseball, this is a must-listen for anyone interested in the history, progression, and future of fantasy baseball.

Under Water - How Holding My...

Claire Walsh

'I needed to breathe. Not the short, shallow breaths that keep you alive … merely existing. I wanted that breath that starts deep down in your being and fills your lungs and limbs with life.'
Claire Walsh spent her twenties living the life she thought she was supposed to live, all the while playing hide-and-seek with depression. In her thirties, finding herself single and living with her parents, she decided it was time to chart a different path.
In Central America Claire discovered freediving, plunging up to 60 metres below the water's surface without the use of breathing apparatus. It taught her the power of breathwork, but more importantly it taught her how to find freedom in the present moment.
Under Water is a candid and captivating story of what it's like to take part in one of the most dangerous sports in the world, and a reminder that sometimes all we need to do is take a deep breath.
'20,000 leaues of sparkling adventure and tap-dancing prose.' Ruth Fitzmaurice, author of I Found My Tribe

Stories Sports and Songs - Tales...

Bill Schoening

Long before he hit the big time as the play-by-play voice of the Texas Longhorns and San Antonio Spurs, sportscaster Bill Schoening paid lots of dues. "Stories, Sports, and Songs" is a collection of 101 tales that chronicle Schoening's unlikely and often humorous radio journey. It started with the childhood dream of a 4th grader in inner-city Philadelphia and continued to small market stations in rural areas of Central Illinois and West Texas. Along the way, he wrote melodies and lyrics about his life experiences. Schoening's broadcasting career now spans over four decades, and he has spent half of those years with the Spurs, describing four NBA titles during his 21 seasons.
