Sinossi

Pole Vault Physics explores the science behind this incredible sport, revealing how athletes convert kinetic energy into potential energy to soar to amazing heights. The book examines the energy transfer process, showing how vaulters transform their run-up speed into the elastic potential energy of the pole, and then back into the kinetic and gravitational potential energy needed to clear the bar. It also analyzes the biomechanics of the athlete's technique, from the initial run-up to the final release, illustrating how each movement contributes to overall performance. This book uniquely blends physics with practical coaching insights, bridging the gap between scientific principles and real-world athletic application. For instance, the evolution of vaulting poles from rigid materials to flexible fiberglass and carbon fiber highlights how material science has revolutionized the sport. The book progresses logically, starting with fundamental concepts of energy and mechanics, then moving into detailed analyses of each phase of the vault, and concluding with advanced training techniques informed by physics. By dissecting each phase of the vault through the lens of energy transfer and biomechanical efficiency, Pole Vault Physics provides coaches, athletes, and enthusiasts with actionable insights. The book provides a comprehensive perspective by integrating rigorous physics analysis with practical coaching insights.

    'A must read for anyone with a passion for women's equality and sport.' -Sue Anstiss
    Voices from the Hills is the story of the barriers encountered by the first female fell runners who fought to participate in the early days of this male-dominated sport. Despite experiencing discouragement and resistance, these women responded with personal courage and self-confidence. Thanks to them, women now compete at traditional fell races, international mountain races and endurance challenges such as the Bob Graham Round in increasing numbers.
    Told predominantly through interviews with pioneering female athletes who recount their lives and running careers, this is the story of a fight for equality of opportunity and reward.

    A uniquely successful approach to overcoming anxiety, imposter syndrome, self–doubt, and self–sabotage. Almost every rider has felt fear at some point while working with a horse. Fear is a normal reaction to a frightening situation, and as long as the emotion subsides, it isn't necessarily a problem. However, when our interactions with our horses are dominated by panic or dread, we need to make a change. But what if the fear doesn't want to go away, but you really don't want to give up your relationship with horses? Certified hypnotist Nicole Weber aims to give you unique tools to successfully manage the kind of fear that negatively impacts the pleasure you get from horses and riding. Her goal is to enable you to enjoy your partnership with your horse. It is not that you will never feel fear again if you use her techniques, because in situations that are actually dangerous, you should still feel fear. It is just that you will have the ability to control the emotion at the times when you are truly safe, but your brain is telling you a different story. Weber begins by covering the theory around fear and how it takes hold of us—how fears arise, what causes them, and why horses mirror our emotions. Then she provides everything readers need to know to empower themselves to turn away from fear and toward enjoying your horse life: step–by–step photographs, links to videos, and guided audio lessons teach you the art of self–hypnosis and Weber's own method, which she calls Equihypnosis. These safe, effective lessons can change not only the way you manage riding, but the way you manage your life outside the barn, too. No matter how long your fear has existed or how old you are, Equihypnosis can liberate you from confining beliefs for good. This surprisingly practical, confidence–inspiring book is for every horse person who wants to make sure she never misses a minute of barn time or a day in the saddle.

    Brian Kinchen was a thirty-eight-year-old husband, father of four, and seventh-grade Bible teacher whose professional football career had been over for three years when the New England Patriots called on December 15, 2003. With the Patriots riding a ten-game winning streak and the playoffs only a few weeks away, they needed a fill-in for the obscure but vital job of snapping the ball for their punter and kicker—a long snapper. Brian had received similar invitations to tryouts that yielded only disappointment—the teams always went with a younger guy. But could he really turn away from the chance of a lifetime? 
    The Long Snapper chronicles Brian's remarkable journey as he and the Patriots seek the ultimate trophy. Unfortunately, the dream come true turns into a personal nightmare as Brian struggles both on and off the field, and the pressure to perform on the biggest stage in professional sports nearly causes him to walk away. Seven weeks after leaving the classroom, however, Brian overcomes his greatest fear and snaps the ball on the historic game-winning field goal with only seconds left in the Super Bowl.  
    As told by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jeffrey Marx, The Long Snapper is the story of a man who finally achieves the success he has always wanted. Brian Kinchen's championship ring is a powerful status symbol for all to see. But his journey forces him to reexamine what really matters, and he realizes the true measure of a man has nothing to do with status: life is not about prestige; it is about passion and purpose. It is about impacting the lives of others.

    A Nation Again is the chaotic tale of the Scotland men's team's return to a major tournament after more than 20 years in the wilderness. 
    Ten had come and gone for Scotland since they reached France '98, but the birth of UEFA's Nations League offered a new route to glory. In early 2018, after a long search for Gordon Strachan's replacement, Alex McLeish became manager for a second time. Despite successfully navigating the Nations League group stage, it wasn't plain sailing, and his tenure ended after a shocking defeat at the start of Euro 2020 qualifying. 
    With a play-off semi-final on the horizon, the Scottish FA turned to Steve Clarke, who took on the challenge of inspiring a team rooted in failure, creating a band-of-brothers mentality and figuring out how to organise this incredibly talented group of players. From a couple of the lowest lows, came the highest high. 
    With exclusive memories and audio from those who were part of the journey, such as John McGinn, Stephen O'Donnell, Lyndon Dykes, Ryan Christie and David Marshall, this is the story of how Scotland finally became a nation again.
