Summary

Sustained success over years at the top of international competition does not come easily in track athletics, and some distances in particular demand higher commitment and total body fitness of the athlete. This is just one of the many aspects assessed in this informative and important new book by Peter Coe, the coach behind his son's success in nine World Records and three World Bests. The 800 and 1500m events are analysed in detail to provide an understanding of what is required to race and win. All vital components of event training are included from fitness testing; mental conditioning and multi-pace training to post-event analysis. For anyone involved in coaching middle distance running this book will help separate the winners from the losers and develop the conditions for successful running. There is a foreword by Sir Roger Bannister.

    In harmony and balance with the horse – this is every rider's dream. Physical and mental balance are the fundamental prerequisites for a sound partnership of animal and human on any equestrian level.
There is, however, also the opposite: Why do we see so many beautiless images of animals in Rollkur and with unclean gaits? Voices criticizing today's equestrian sport and training methods geared toward quick successes are getting increasingly loud. Is this criticism justifi ed? How can we turn the tide in the horse's favor?
Let us start with ourselves! Christoph Ackermann explains how we can bring any horse – healthily and happily – to its respective top performance by schooling the correct balance, handling the horse with affection, and applying consistent, systematic training according to the Training Scale.
Christoph Ackermann himself actively competes in equestrian sports. In this book, he presents a courageous and searingly honest critique of the established way the sport operates, which will give any horse lover food for thought.

    In any high-pressure environment, from special operations to the operating theater, you can divide people into two groups—those who control their performance from the inside out, and those whose performance is controlled from the outside in. 
In Inside Out Charlie Unwin, one of the world’s leading performance psychologists, explains the techniques that enable the elite to perform at their best under immense pressure. It reveals how they think, prepare, and perform, taking you inside the highly unpredictable modern battlefield, the chaos of the catwalk, the operating theater, the stadium, the maximum-security prison, and the opera house. 
Whatever the challenge, whether life-or-death, or simply chasing a promotion at work, we are all susceptible to becoming “outside in”—when you start paying more attention to the thought of not messing up than the process of doing something well. The “inside out” method helps you gain control so that you can have a greater impact. It’s about mindset, learning new skills, maintaining confidence, and sustaining great results over time. 
Packed with inspirational stories, easy-to-follow steps, and mental training exercises informed by Charlie’s award-winning research into the performance mindset, Inside Out will help you realize your potential and lead a more successful and fulfilling life.
