Beschreibung

Mixed martial arts (MMA) has been called "the world's fastest-growing sport" with a huge fan base . . . It's often identified with violence and greed, but is that an accurate portrayal? 
Many MMA fighters grew up having to overcome bullying, gang activity, drugs, and violence. For them, success as a fighter is not their financial ticket to lifetime security, but  an opportunity to share life-altering concepts and inspire others through the sport they enjoy. 
As the mother of MMA champion Dominick Cruz and a mixed martial artist herself, author Suzette Howe has unique access to mixed martial arts athletes across the globe. In Broken Before Battle: Changing Lives Outside the Octagon, she profiles eight professional MMA fighters and coaches who tell positive stories of triumphing over tragedy, defeating obstacles, and making a life-changing difference in the lives of others. They share private memories of brokenness and ultimate success that will encourage you to be victorious in your own battles. 
You'll discover how an active discipline in mixed martial arts can bring astonishing benefits to both adults and youth by teaching better ways to deal with conflicted emotions and building skills that help improve concentration, behaviors, and attitudes. 
Broken Before Battle: Changing Lives Outside the Octagon is the first in a trilogy by Suzette Howe, forged from her one-on-one personal relationships with fighters and others in MMA. Look beyond the hype and into the hearts of these remarkable individuals and their families to hear what they are yearning to share.

    Are you looking for unique ways to "get into the game"? To enhance your training and find focus? You aren't alone. Increasingly, athletes and coaches—from amateur leagues to professional football champs to Olympic athletes—are incorporating mindfulness practices into their training. That's because mindfulness can help you lower your stress levels, connect with the moment, and mentally bounce back after setbacks. So whether you're a sports enthusiast or a professional athlete, mindfulness can also help you deal with physical aspects of training, such as fatigue, aches, pains, injury, burnout, and exhaustion. 
    Written by holistic physician, mindfulness coach, and long-time athlete Amy Saltzman, this practical book offers mindfulness-based skills you can use any time throughout your athletic career, as well as in daily life. You'll discover what the author fondly refers to as the "still quiet place," and from the vantage point of that stillness, you'll be able to observe your thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations—before and during practice and competition, between events, after a miss or significant loss, or exhilarating win. You'll also find skills for dealing effectively with teammates and coaches, as well as skills for coaching mindfully. A parents guide is also included.

    Your first kiss. The birth of a child. Your first big job. These indelible memories shape our identity. Great sports moments do that too. 
    Join one of America’s most prolific sports history writers and relive 15 spectacular sports moments that transfixed and inspired a nation. 
    David L. Hudson, Jr. is the author of over 40 books, an award-winning professor, and a judge for professional boxing events. In this audio series, he explores unforgettable sports moments spanning football, baseball, golf, basketball, tennis, soccer and more. 
    You’ll sit ringside as Muhammad Ali employs the “rope-a-dope” strategy to upset George Foreman in Zaire and cheer as Secretariat wins the Triple Crown at the Belmont Stakes by an astounding 31 lengths. You’ll gasp as Reggie Jackson leads the Yankees to the World Series Championship with three home runs and marvel as Wilt Chamberlain scores 100 points in a single NBA game. 
    You’ll also take in moments of triumph whose significance transcends the realm of sports, such as Jesse Owens’ victory at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, which shattered Adolph Hitler’s noxious myth of Aryan superiority. 
    Hudson will reanimate your favorite moments in sports history and shed new light on the men and women who achieved them.

    People often ask me to help them assess what their odds of success will be in some new endeavor: What are my odds of succeeding as a full-time blogger? What are my odds of succeeding as an indie game developer? What are my odds of succeeding as an entrepreneur?    On the surface it seems intelligent to assess your risks before embarking on a new venture. Unfortunately the way I've seen most people do this is rather silly...
