  This is the golden age of bullfighting. In the last 60 years, the number of bullfights (corridas) held in Spain has increased almost ninefold, peaking in 2007. Great bullfighting names have the status of football stars, with heroes including Cayetano, José Tomás, Enrique Ponce and Morante de la Puebla, their styles ranging from the flamboyant and breath-takingly reckless to calm domination and technical mastery.
  
  Many English-speaking tourists on holiday witness this most ancient and colourful of spectacles, but few understand what is really going on.
  This illustrated guide acknowledges that attending a bullfight is controversial and will not appeal to everyone. It throws light on the bullfighter's art and outlines the structure of the corrida, the key players and the various moves and stages.
  
  A fascinating and complex event is defined step-by-step in layman's terms. The music, the excitement and reactions of the crowd and the drama are all put into context and one of the most ancient and unusual of modern spectacles becomes clear.
  
  This book is designed to give readers of whatever persuasion an understanding of bullfighting, so that they can either increase their pleasure in watching a corrida in Spain, France or South America, or simply learn what is involved in this most complex, moving and controversial of spectacles.

  80 20 Triathlon - Discover the...

  A breakthrough program for triathletes—beginner, intermediate, and advanced—showing how to balance training intensity to maximize performance—from a fitness expert and elite coachCutting-edge research has proven that  triathletes and other endurance athletes experience their greatest  performance when they do 80 percent of their training at low intensity  and the remaining 20 percent at moderate to high intensity. But the vast  majority of recreational triathletes are caught in the so-called  "moderate-intensity rut," spending almost half of their time training  too hard—harder than the pros. Training harder isn't smarter; it  actually results in low-grade chronic fatigue that prevents recreational  athletes from getting the best results.In 80/20 Triathlon,  Matt Fitzgerald and David Warden lay out the real-world and scientific  evidence, offering concrete tips and strategies, along with complete  training plans for every distance—Sprint, Olympic, Half-Ironman, and  Ironman—to help athletes implement the 80/20 rule of intensity balance.  Benefits include reduced fatigue and injury risk, improved fitness, increased motivation, and better race results.
