Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde mi especialidad, como biomecánico, me atrae especialmente la forma en que los autores integran de forma práctica los conocimientos de biomecánica, junto con los de anatomía, fisiología del ejercicio y teoría del entrenamiento. Estas interacciones de diferentes disciplinas están orientadas a explicar el por qué de los ejercicios que se recomiendan en el libro. Así le músculo y las articulaciones son considerados desde una visión pluridisciplinar, que ayuda a comprender, en sus distintas facetas, el trabajo que con ellos se realiza, orientado el acondicionamiento físico y a la salud. Quisiera destacar las atractivas imágenes que los autores logran de los elementos anatómicos que intervienen, así como las de los ejercicios que prescriben en la guía. El libro está muy cuidado, estructurado y bien acabado. Ofrece desde la perspectiva del acondicionamiento físico, una guía de ejercicios de fitness muscular. Lejos de recetas simplemente enumerativas de ejercicios, el libro detalla las razones de los ejercicios que se recomiendan. Se describe de forma clara y aplicada la anatomía de las estructuras involucradas y los ejercicios propuestos, incluyendo las posturas en su realización y sus variantes. Está siempre presente la seguridad por encima de todo, en las prouestas que se hacen y se detallan bien las diferentes formas incorrectas de trabajar y sus consecuencias. Por otro lado, para que los lectores interesados puedan profundizar más, el libro recoge numerosas y actualizadas referencias bibliográficas en cada uno de sus capítulos. Por todo ello, este libro será útil tanto para los estudiantes de Ciencias del Deporte, para que puedan reconocer las últimas tendencias de ejercicios para el entrenamiento de la fuerza, como para los profesionales del de Fitness y también para todos aquéllos practicantes, ávidos de estar al día y conocer con detalle aquéllos ejercicios que van a realizar en el acondicionamiento muscular.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A growing body of research evidence suggests that physical activity can have a positive effect on educational achievement. This book examines a range of processes associated with physical activity that are of relevance to those working in education – including cognition, learning, memory, attention, mood, stress and mental health symptoms – and draws on the latest insights from exercise neuroscience to help explain the evidence. With contributions from leading scientists and educationalists from around the world, this book cuts through the myths to interrogate the relationship between physical activity and educational achievement in children, adolescents and young adults in a variety of cultural and geographical contexts. Examining both the benefits and risks associated with physical activity from the perspectives of exercise science and educational psychology, it also looks ahead to ask what the limits of this research might be and what effects it might have on the future practice of education. Physical Activity and Educational Achievement: Insights from Exercise Neuroscience is fascinating reading for any student, academic or practitioner with an interest in exercise science and education.

Download or read book The Obesity Paradox written by Carl J. Lavie, MD and published by Scribe Publications. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us think that longevity hinges on maintaining a normal Body Mass Index. But research conducted over the last decade hit the media recently with explosive news: overweight and even moderately obese people with certain chronic diseases — from heart disease to cancer — often live longer and fare better than normal-weight individuals with the same ailments. In this groundbreaking book, Carl Lavie, MD, reveals the science behind the obesity paradox and shows us how to achieve maximum health rather than minimum weight. Lavie not only explains how extra fat provides additional fuel to help fight illness; he also argues that we’ve gotten so used to framing health issues in terms of obesity that we overlook other potential causes of disease. The Obesity Paradox will change the conversation about fat — and what it means to be healthy.

Download or read book The Education of the Professional Musician written by Hildegard C. Froehlich and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legendary Greek figure Orpheus was said to have possessed magical powers capable of moving all living and inanimate things through the sound of his lyre and voice. Over time, the Orphic theme has come to indicate the power of music to unsettle, subvert, and ultimately bring down oppressive realities in order to liberate the soul and expand human life without limits. The liberating effect of music has been a particularly important theme in twentieth-century African American literature. The nine original essays in Black Orpheus examines the Orphic theme in the fiction of such African American writers as Jean Toomer, Langston Hughes, Claude McKay, James Baldwin, Nathaniel Mackey, Sherley Anne Williams, Ann Petry, Ntozake Shange, Alice Walker, Gayl Jones, and Toni Morrison. The authors discussed in this volume depict music as a mystical, shamanistic, and spiritual power that can miraculously transform the realities of the soul and of the world. Here, the musician uses his or her music as a weapon to shield and protect his or her spirituality. Written by scholars of English, music, women's studies, American studies, cultural theory, and black and Africana studies, the essays in this interdisciplinary collection ultimately explore the thematic, linguistic structural presence of music in twentieth-century African American fiction.
