Summary

The Proper Golfing Handbook uses words, photos and videos to explain all the key skills. The idea is to understand the theory first, then see it in action. This is a book that can be taken with you onto the golf course in your golf bag for when your game needs that instant fix. If you are a complete beginner the early chapters give a firm base on which to build your game: grip, stance, set-up and a relaxed swing. These are the foundations to which you must return before each shot, and are the basis for the effortless power we all want. If you are an improver the book acts as your reset. It explains how to make all the different types of shot, and how to get out of trouble.  And since golf is the ultimate psychological game it helps you find a more positive and realistic mindset. In short, The Proper Golfing Handbook shows how to fix your game for good. If you are an experienced golfer wanting to take your game to a new level, help is at hand. Use The Proper Golfing Handbook to check the basics, then learn how to fade and draw the ball, make high and low shots, and play from poor or sloping lies. It will also help you score better by managing the course. If you are a senior golfer Julian Mellor shows how to prepare your body for golf using exercises and good warm-up routines. He teaches a realistic swing for life, one that will avoid injury but still deliver power and accuracy. All golfers will appreciate the final chapter on common faults and how to fix them, and particularly how to reset mid-round if you 'lose it'. Read on, relax, get out of your own way and let the magic happen. Proper golfing is within your grasp!

    From the trainer and high-performance expert behind LeBron James and other superstars, a blueprint to achieving peak physical and psychological well-being—and sustaining it for the long haul. With a foreword by LeBron. 
“Mike Mancias is more than a teacher or trainer, his approach to health and wellness is an approach to life. If you stay ready, you ain’t gotta get ready.” —Usher 
Mike Mancias has spent two decades developing and refining a winning blueprint for athletic excellence. He’s worked with countless professional athletes, sports franchises, and the US Olympic Program. And his methods have propelled the rise of LeBron James, arguably the best-trained athlete in the world, and the gold standard for elite longevity. In Game Plan, he shares those secrets with the rest of us. 
Over the course of three parts—the first focused on nutrition (“Eat with performance first and foremost in your mind”), the second on physical training (“We find the best ways to keep the body in constant motion”), and the third on recovery (“Recovery doesn’t start after performance but during performance”)—Mancias guides readers on their own journey to tiptop performance. 
Revelations include the precise time to eat before an athletic pursuit, the hidden pitfalls of stretching, the right temperature for sleeping, therapeutic breathing techniques to turn off stress, and why naps are not just for babies. Throughout, Mancias makes the case that excellence must begin with the mind before it can manifest in the body—and shows you how to cultivate it. 
Game Plan offers an actionable, holistic, and comprehensive roadmap to peak performance. 
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

    Surprising, entertaining, and always imparting an important life lesson, It’s How You Play the Game features anecdotes and vignettes that are sure to benefit any reader. As Brian Kilmeade writes, ""Regardless of who you are, what sport you chose, or how much success you achieved, playing the game is all about getting you ready for life. Winning or losing has little to do with who you will become. Instead, it’s how you prepared for the game that determines whether you’ll be a winner or loser in life."" 
From competition to camaraderie, failure to success, humiliation to glory, individual achievement to teamwork, the world of sports encompasses it all and enriches our lives. The Games Do Count reveals that America’s best and brightest haven’t just worked hard—they’ve played hard—and the results have been staggering!

    NCAA and SEC championship-winning American college basketball coaches Pat Summitt and John Wooden exemplified the essential values of humility, loyalty, encouragement, respect, honesty, confidence, curiosity, and the competitive spirit—to name a few. Lessons from the Legends shares the teachings of these renowned coaches at a time when "WE-GO, not ego‚" is more important than ever before.  Professional speaker and motivator Brian Biro brings together the championship team-building formula of Pat Summitt and John Wooden in his latest release, Lessons from the Legends. Biro describes the impact of these modern-day heroes, how their drive and integrity generated remarkable results. Though Biro points out that these two coaching legends were quite different in personality and approach—one all passion and intensity, the other calm and even-keeled—he highlights the significant characteristics they shared that set them apart as leaders. Biro explains that the foundational principles and coaching strategies of Pat Summitt and John Wooden can apply to teachers, business leaders, parents, and anyone else who strives to make their character their reputation.  With real-life examples of professional coaches demonstrating resilience and determination in the face of ever-changing challenges, Lessons from the Legends provides a winning game plan for those who seek excellence over ego.
