    Back o the Net! - Why We Love...

    This book is a reminder for those who have stood and suffered, sat, and celebrated, argued, fought and struggled as well as kept coming back, that supporting is more than just a game. I can assure you – it is much more important than that! DONALD C STEWART, Ayr United
    
    It doesn't matter where you are in the world or what stage you're at in life – you never forget when you first set eyes on your football club.
    Back o the Net! is an ode to the unwavering love that every football fan has for their club, comprising voices from many different walks of life. The devoted, the long suffering, the hometown fans, the ones who didn't grow up living in the same town as their team, the winners and the losers. All with the same underlying tie – they are dedicated and devoted to the very end.
    Whether it's in the back o our net or theirs, we'll always love our team.
    
    I'm a firm believer that supporting your local team, the team you've been brought up with, is very important, and I always will. I'm a season ticket holder, have been a shareholder and, like thousands of Fifers, the Raith Rovers result is the first one I look for every week. GORDON BROWN, FORMER P.M. (2007-2010), Raith Rovers
    
    You may change friends, you may change wife, but you never change football team. Always a Warrior. DAVID McVEY, Stenhousemuir
    
    We support our team, but we always remember the first time, the first place, the palace of the arts where we first watched them perform. GEORG MATHISEN, Kirkintilloch Rob Roy

    Drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in 1996, Brian Dawkins fought to elevate not only his own game but that of his entire team. He sweat, bled, and dominated through sixteen season in the NFL all the way into the Hall of Fame, but not for a moment did he believe his strength alone brought him that glory. Every step of the way the Lord had his back. From coaches that wanted to break him to defeats and bitter lessons in humility, his career is a testament to his faith and an homage to the countless people that helped him along the way. 
     
     
     
    In the wake of his success, Dawkins comes forward to describe his journey to become one the best safeties in the NFL. Physical training wouldn't cut it. Blessed by the Best follows Dawkins trials to train his mind and faith along with his skill. As a nervous kid from Jacksonville, he never dreamed of one day standing in front of a crowd to accept that golden jacket. But one way or another, he made it. Dawkins tells his story straight, unafraid of exposing his own weaknesses; his over competitive spirit that takes losses to hard, the tunnel vision that estranged him from his kids, and the self-doubt that plagued much of his early years. Triumphs, pitfalls, love, and struggles Dawkins shares them all, not for himself, but in gratitude of those who have helped him along the way.

    Powerlifting Prowess - Strength...

    Powerlifting is a strength sport that focuses on three core lifts: the squat, bench press, and deadlift. These exercises form the foundation of powerlifting and test an athlete's maximal strength in a single, controlled repetition. Unlike bodybuilding, which emphasizes aesthetics, powerlifting prioritizes pure strength and the ability to lift as much weight as possible in each of the three lifts. 
    The origins of powerlifting date back to the mid-20th century, evolving from earlier strength competitions and "odd lift" contests. It was officially recognized as a sport in the 1970s, with the establishment of the International Powerlifting Federation (IPF). Over the decades, powerlifting has grown significantly, attracting athletes from various backgrounds who are united by their pursuit of raw power. 
    Powerlifting offers a range of benefits that extend beyond the competition platform. It is an excellent way to build muscle mass, improve bone density, and enhance overall physical resilience. The structured nature of powerlifting training fosters discipline and goal-setting, while the supportive community surrounding the sport often inspires camaraderie and mutual encouragement.
