    A one-of-a-kind collection including some never-before-seen photographs of the wild and unforgettable WHA from legendary sports photographer Steve Babineau
    		
    		 
    On October 12, 1972, legendary Boston sports photographer, Steve Babineau, was in attendance for the debut of the New England Whalers. They were taking on the Philadelphia Blazers at the old Boston Garden — and Babs was shooting the action. Fifty years later, he’s still photographing big-league sports events — but this lovingly curated collection documents both his earliest published (and unseen) works and the wild emergence of the colorful, revolutionary, wild, and unforgettable WHA.
    		 
    In an era when rolls of film still had to be changed by hand and cameras were focused manually, when arena lighting was questionable and images had to be captured through the haze produced by smoking fans, Babineau captured it all: the timeless legends who were finally getting paid, the journeymen who finally got a shot at the pros, the 17-year-old who would go on to rewrite record books, the brawls and goals, the glorious ’staches and flows, the highs and the lows …
    		 
    Behind the Lens: The World Hockey Association 50 Years Later has the Golden Jet and the Howes, the teams that seemed to change names and cities as often as some players changed wooden sticks, and even the true origin story of that Wayne Gretzky photo that’s become the million-dollar holy grail for sports card collectors.

    Fitness motivation is a powerful driving force that pushes individuals to set goals, stay committed, and achieve their desired outcomes. It’s more than just a fleeting burst of enthusiasm – it’s a mindset, a lifestyle that can help you overcome obstacles and stay on track, even when the going gets tough. To truly harness the power of motivation, it’s important to first understand its role in the context of fitness. 
    At its core, the power of mindset is what separates those who achieve their fitness goals from those who struggle to stay on course. Fitness isn’t just about physical strength or endurance; it’s largely driven by mental resilience. A positive mindset allows you to focus on the process, rather than becoming discouraged by temporary setbacks or plateaus. Whether you're just starting out or you've been working on your fitness for years, developing a mindset that embraces challenges as opportunities is key to long-term success. 
    Equally important in understanding fitness motivation is overcoming mental barriers. Many people experience self-doubt, fear of failure, or the belief that they’re not capable of achieving their fitness goals. These thoughts can be crippling, but the good news is that they can be overcome. By reframing negative thoughts, setting small achievable goals, and focusing on your progress rather than perfection, you can gradually dismantle the mental barriers that stand in your way. Recognizing and confronting these barriers head-on is one of the most effective ways to stay motivated in your fitness journey.

    Staying fit while traveling might seem like a daunting task, but it’s an approach that can transform the way you explore the world. Traveling often disrupts routines, introduces unfamiliar foods, and brings logistical challenges that make fitness seem secondary. However, adopting a mindset of balance and adaptability allows you to maintain your health without sacrificing the joys of discovery. 
    Fit travel is about integrating physical activity, mindfulness, and wellness into your adventures. It’s not about rigid routines or missing out on cultural experiences—it’s about enhancing your journey by staying energized, focused, and physically capable of making the most of every opportunity. When you prioritize fitness while traveling, you’ll find yourself more present, resilient, and ready to engage with the world around you. 
    The benefits of staying fit on the road go beyond physical health. Exercise is a proven stress reliever, helping to combat the anxieties of navigating new places and managing travel logistics. It boosts your mood and energy levels, making you more equipped to enjoy long days of sightseeing, hikes, or cultural immersion. Moreover, it creates a sense of accomplishment that can positively shape your entire travel experience.

    This book contains 2 titles, which are: 
    - Fitness Tracking: The concept of tracking fitness isn’t entirely new—athletes have long relied on basic tools like stopwatches and pedometers to monitor their performance. However, the digital age has elevated this practice to unprecedented levels. Modern fitness trackers, ranging from wearable devices to smartphone apps, provide comprehensive insights into various aspects of health, including heart rate, activity levels, sleep quality, and calorie consumption. These technologies have become accessible to the average person, democratizing fitness knowledge and enabling users to make informed decisions about their health. 
    - Fitness on the Go: Traveling can often disrupt our usual routines, and one of the first things many people sacrifice while on the go is fitness. However, staying active during your travels is not only possible, but it can also be incredibly rewarding. Fitness on the go is about making small adjustments to your routine that allow you to maintain your health, improve your energy, and help you stay balanced no matter where you are. This chapter will explore the benefits of staying fit while traveling, how to overcome common barriers, and how to set realistic fitness goals while on the move. 
    Fitness during travel is not just about physical health; it’s also about mental well-being. Engaging in regular exercise can help reduce the stress and anxiety that often accompany travel, especially with tight schedules, time zone changes, or unfamiliar environments. Staying active releases endorphins, the body’s natural stress relievers, helping you stay relaxed and focused. Moreover, travel workouts can improve your sleep quality and keep your energy levels high, making your trip more enjoyable and productive.
