  The Science of Speed -...

  Sprinting and marathon running are two of the most demanding yet contrasting disciplines in athletics. While both require exceptional physical and mental conditioning, the fundamental difference lies in how the body generates and sustains energy. Sprinters rely on explosive power and short bursts of speed, whereas marathoners must master endurance, pacing, and energy conservation over long distances. Understanding the mechanics of speed and endurance is essential for athletes looking to push their limits and optimize their performance. 
  The human body consists of two primary types of muscle fibers: fast-twitch and slow-twitch. Sprinters predominantly utilize fast-twitch fibers, which generate rapid and powerful contractions but fatigue quickly. These fibers enable the quick acceleration and high-speed bursts necessary for short-distance races. Marathon runners, on the other hand, rely more on slow-twitch fibers, which are highly resistant to fatigue and support prolonged, steady-state activity. The composition of these fibers is partly genetic, but with proper training, athletes can develop their muscles to better suit their chosen discipline. 
  Another key difference between sprinting and endurance running is how the body produces energy. Sprinters depend on anaerobic energy systems, which allow them to generate explosive power without requiring oxygen. This system, fueled primarily by stored creatine phosphate and glycogen, is highly efficient for short efforts but leads to rapid exhaustion. In contrast, marathoners primarily use aerobic energy systems, where oxygen plays a crucial role in breaking down carbohydrates and fats to sustain energy for extended periods. This reliance on aerobic metabolism enables runners to maintain a steady pace without depleting energy reserves too quickly.

  PICKLEBALL FOR BEGINNERS - A...

  Pickleball's popularity expanded over the years, and the game eventually made its way to other regions of the country. In 1976, the first pickleball tournament was played, and in 1984, the United States of America Pickleball Association was established. Pickleball is a popular sport that is practiced not only in the United States but also in the majority of other countries across the world. 
  You will require a few essential pieces of gear in order to play pickleball. The pickleball paddle, which has a form comparable to that of a table tennis paddle but is somewhat larger, is the most essential component of the game. The paddle is constructed out of a number of materials, the most notable of which are graphite, composite materials, and wood. 
  Pickleball is played with a ball that is comparable in size to a wiffle ball but has holes that are much smaller. Because it is not too heavy and can be hit with relative ease, the ball is ideal for players who are just starting out. Pickleball is played on a court that is of a rectangular shape and has a net in the middle to create two halves. The dimensions of the court for doubles play are 20 feet wide by 44 feet long, and the dimensions for singles play are 20 feet wide by 22 feet long. 
  The rules of pickleball are not too complicated and can be grasped with little effort. The first step of the game is the serve, which must be executed underhand and in a direction that is diagonal across the court. The team that is receiving the serve must wait for the ball to bounce before returning it, and the serve must land within the service court of the opposing team.

  The most famous strength and conditioning coach in college football uses his story of hitting rock bottom and clawing his way back to success to inspire audiences in life, business and sports. Few names in college football command respect like Scott Cochran, affectionately known as "Coach Yeah," the 8-time National Championship-winning strength and conditioning coach whose booming voice and relentless energy turned boys into champions at Alabama and Georgia. But behind the rings, ESPN appearances, and hall-of-fame-level hype, Cochran faced an opponent far tougher than any SEC rival: addiction.Skull Session is his no-holds-barred account of rising to the top, falling hard, and clawing his way back with faith, grit, and the unwavering belief that champions are built in the mind as well as on the field. If Cochran is known for anything, it’s using his distinct voice to turn go-getters into champions. In this motivational book, Cochran blends raw personal testimony with the essential principles that have shaped some of the NFL's greatest stars, including Derrick Henry, Julio Jones, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. This is a playbook for life. Each chapter centers on a core principle learned in what Cochran calls "skull sessions"—mental-development meetings that taught his players (and himself) to confront their fears, failures, and ambitions head-on. From his near-fatal overdose to his spiritual reawakening, Cochran reveals how he rebuilt his life one day at a time. Perfect for sports fans, self-improvement readers, and anyone seeking redemption, Skull Session is the ultimate underdog story. It's a testament to the truth that no matter how many times you fall, you can rise again—and rise stronger.
