Mental Training for Runners
by Jeff Galloway
This book explains how to improve motivation, why and how you lose motivation and it gives specific tips and methods for staying at your best. Generations of exercisers and athletes have struggled with the motivation to get out the door, to continue on tough days, or to push through the final barrier of discomfort to the long awaited goal.
Mental Training for Runners describes the source of problems, how to diffuse them, with methods that can keep one motivated. The unconscious process of stress build-up often sends body and mind on separate missions. Galloway provides a series of mental training methods which can bring body, mind, and spirit into a powerful team.
Each major area of low motivation is noted with proven ways of overcoming the problems. Many runners have applied these methods at work, in the home and in other areas of life. more
Fearless Swimming for Triathletes
by Ingrid Loos Miller
Are you afraid of being pummeled by surf, eaten by sharks and bullied by rip currents? Most triathletes learned to swim in a pool, but they have to race in rivers, lakes and oceans. For many the fear of vast open water, crashing surf and sharks, disorientation, seasickness and anxiety can make the triathlon swim the worst part of the day.
This guide addresses those concerns in a progression of skills to take the athlete confidently from pool to lake to river to sea. Ultra endurance swimmers share insights for dealing with fears and medical professionals provide sound safety advice for swimming in dirty water. Readers will also learn about screening for preexisting medical conditions that have contributed to triathlon swim deaths.
Former ocean lifeguard and triathlete coach Ingrid Loos Miller will take you step-by-step from pool to any open water destination by teaching the skills you need to feel more con-fident in the open water. more

The unique shape of the kettlebell challenges the whole body as the hand, arm, shoulder and core region controls the displacement of weight and counteraction of muscles with each movement. more
