How about you try realtraining? - Follow Biological Rules

Martin Pfeifenberger

Sinopsis

The playground of sport..

How does efficient, effective and sustainable training really work?
Especially in this day and age, when resilience and the immune system play a greater role than ever before, the contrasts on this topic could not be wider. There are countless "experts" who promise the moon. In no other area are there more of them - except perhaps in politics.

Are content and form out of balance?
Hopes, dreams and desires are processed for marketing purposes and spread like wildfire via social media channels.
Each training method is yet more effective and efficient than the previous one, while taking less time. Self-proclaimed "biohackers" and people who have reinvented physiology are making utopian promises.
It seems that human physiology has changed proportionally with the development of the internet, at least if you believe these promises.
Human physiology has evolved over millennia and will not change significantly in the next hundred years.
This book is not a training manual, it is intended to encourage reflection, questioning and scrutiny - whether in health sports, ambitious hobby sports or competitive sports.
What conditions should be created? What do the many terms buzzing around mean? How does it all really work?
These connections and backgrounds are explained both clearly and logically in this book - why one thing works and another can't work.
Understanding the "why" is one of the most important prerequisites for functional, effective and sustainable training.
Many achievements and medals are the product of a series of coincidences, which are not all that rare - which is why many training systems persist.

The knowledge about the application of biological measurement data for physical training has been around for almost half a century - only the knowledge about the correct application is still largely a mystery.

HORSE RIDING FOR BEGINNERS - The...

Ethan Johnson

The unusual sensation of freedom that comes with horseback riding is a large part of the sport's attraction. A burst of adrenaline will race through your veins as you mount a horse and direct it through broad pastures or down twisting trails. You feel an exceptional connection with the natural world as the brisk wind whips past your face, the rhythmic sound of hooves striking the ground reverberates, and the strength beneath you produces an extraordinary bond with the environment. You are able to break free from the constraints of modern life and experience a more fulfilling connection with the horse as well as the natural world when you go horseback riding.
Riding horses, in contrast to the widespread notion, is not a passive activity; rather, it uses your complete body and is therefore a satisfying form of physical endeavor. Being able to maintain your balance while riding a horse that is moving demands core strength, stability, and coordination. Riding helps to improve posture, develop core strength, and promote total body control because of the continuous activation of muscles during the activity. Riders also enjoy increased flexibility as a result of the process of adapting to the movements of the horse. In addition, the rhythmic motion of the horse's gait offers a low-impact kind of exercise that is beneficial to one's cardiovascular health and increases one's stamina.
The connection that exists between rider and horse is indescribable. Horses are exceptionally observant animals, and the trust and bond that can develop between a horse and its rider is something absolutely unique and beautiful. You and your horse will develop a strong sense of connection and mutual understanding as you spend time together grooming, feeding, and otherwise taking care of it.

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'.

RYA European Waterways...

Tam Murrell

This audiobook of RYA European Waterways Regulation has been updated to match CEVNI 6. Covering subject areas such as Basic Rules, Visual Signs, Buoyage, Designated Areas, Sound Signals and more, this is the ideal audiobook for those wanting to pass the CEVNI test, a legal requirement for those cruising the European inland waterways. 
The CEVNI code was devised by the United Nations in 1985 and governs navigation on all interconnected European inland waterways. It was established to enable sailors of all nationalities to communicate, and to understand what is going on without the need to speak each other’s language. By law, all those cruising on European inland waterways must have passed the CEVNI test and have a reference copy onboard. 
Knowledgeable author Tam Murrell has been cruising since the late 1950’s, working with narrow boats and barges on UK inland waters, to small coasters trading in and around the Thames estuary and into Northern Europe. Since 1995, Tam and his wife have spent much of their time on continental waterways on their 24m Dutch barge. 
As the RYA’s supporting material for the CEVNI test, RYA European Waterways Regulation is the ideal audiobook for those wanting to cruise the inland waterways of Europe.

Ultimate Frisbee Fundamentals -...

Zane Ryder

Ultimate Frisbee, often referred to simply as "Ultimate," is a fast-paced, non-contact team sport played with a flying disc. Combining elements of soccer, basketball, and American football, it emphasizes athleticism, strategy, and sportsmanship. Originating in the late 1960s in the United States, Ultimate has grown into a global phenomenon, with leagues and tournaments held across the world. 
The game is typically played between two teams of seven players on a rectangular field with end zones at each end. The objective is to score points by catching the disc in the opposing team’s end zone. Players advance the disc by passing it to teammates, as running while holding the disc is not allowed. A turnover occurs if the disc is intercepted, dropped, or thrown out of bounds, giving the opposing team possession. 
One of the defining features of Ultimate Frisbee is the "Spirit of the Game," a principle that emphasizes fair play, mutual respect, and self-officiation. Players are responsible for calling fouls, resolving disputes, and ensuring the game is played in an honest and respectful manner. This unique approach fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among players.
