Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Training for climbing can be fun, but sticking to a schedule can be desperately hard. Many climbers have seen the value of a carefully planned out, periodized training program. Clearly, such programs work, but many of us can't stick to such a rigid schedule. What if there were a better way? What if there were a more flexible way of planning that provided the same great results? And what if such a program allowed you to maintain high levels of climbing performance much longer than you could on a traditional program? For the climber that has limited time to train, there may be no better program than Logical Progression. For anyone who wants to get fit and stay fit for long trips and redpoint seasons, the program outlined in this book can give you a great advantage. Based on solid science and tested by hundreds of climbers, Logical Progression is a simple and very effective way of organizing your training, and making sure that progress keeps coming.

Download or read book Logical progression of twelve double binary tables of physical mathematical elements correlated with scientific philosophical as well as metaphysical key concepts evidencing the dually four dimensional basic structure of the universe written by Federico Tambara and published by Youcanprint. This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This scientific-philosophical Essay by Dr. Prof. Tambara Federico is aimed, first of all, at systematically "decoding" the basic structure of physical reality as a whole: a secret structure which is a four-dimensionally oriented, as well as dialectically binary one ( as the author will humbly try to prove in both physical-mathematical, geometrical-mathematical and logical-philosophical terms, by making detailed references to several interdisciplinary scientific domains ) . In this way it will become possible to gradually unify the infinitesimally micrometric quantum levels of our Universe not only with the microcosmic ones, but also with the microscopic, the macroscopic, and finally the macro-cosmic ones: all this from the viewpoint of a new THEORY OF EVERYTHING ( T.O.E. ) , which is expected to disclose wider and wider horizons for both Theoretical and Applied Sciences.

Download or read book Insomnia written by Marina Benjamin and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An insomniac’s ideal sleep aid—and that’s a compliment. With her collage of ruminations about sleeplessness, [Benjamin] promises no real cure . . . Her slim book is what the doctor ordered.”—The Atlantic Insomnia is on the rise. Villainous and unforgiving, it’s the enemy o f energy and focus, the thief of our repose. But can insomnia be an ally, too, a validator of the present moment, of edginess and creativity? Marina Benjamin takes on her personal experience of the condition—her struggles with it, her insomniac highs, and her dawning awareness that states of sleeplessness grant us valuable insights into the workings of our unconscious minds. Although insomnia is rarely entirely welcome, Benjamin treats it less as an affliction than as an encounter that she engages with and plumbs. She adds new dimensions to both our understanding of sleep (and going without it) and of night, and how we perceive darkness. Along the way, Insomnia trips through illuminating material from literature, art, philosophy, psychology, pop culture, and more. Benjamin pays particular attention to the relationship between women and sleep—Penelope up all night, unraveling her day’s weaving for Odysseus; the Pre–Raphaelite artists’ depictions of deeply sleeping women; and the worries that keep contemporary females awake. Insomnia is an intense, lyrical, witty, and humane exploration of a state we too often consider only superficially. “This is the song of insomnia, and I shall sing it,” Marina Benjamin declares.

Download or read book Climb Strong 100 Training Tips written by Steve Bechtel and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was originally published in 2013 as an ebook on the Climb Strong site. I added it to the book Strength as an appendix, under the name of "Successful Sessions: 34 Training Tips for Successful Rock Climbing." I had originally written it as ten tips, then fixed on twenty five. By the time I'd finished, I stopped at the nice, round number of 34.Since that time, my learning and communicating with more accomplished coaches and climbers has increased substantially. In fact, there are many days that I do little at my normal job (running the gym), and instead spend hours communicating with climbers. This has been a hard transition, made easier by the efforts of my wife, Ellen, as well as Charlie Manganiello, Shelby Duncan, Kevin Wallingford, and Emily Tilden, who keep Elemental running and improving. I am pleased to admit that I am now the worst coach at the gym.When I looked at the updated list in the fall of 2015, I saw that we had collected well over a hundred tips, from one-line reminders to full-life plans. Over the winter of 2016/17, we whittled the tips down to exactly 100, and tried to keep them short and to the point. This is not so much a book to read in one sitting, but rather one to take in one or two tips at a time.This book is free to download with a paid membership to our site.

Download or read book Uncovering the Logic of English A Common Sense Solution to America s Literacy Crisis written by Denise Eide and published by Logic of English, Inc. This book was released on 2011-01-27 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "English is so illogical!" It is generally believed that English is a language of exceptions. For many, learning to spell and read is frustrating. For some, it is impossible... especially for the 29% of Americans who are functionally illiterate. But what if the problem is not the language itself, but the rules we were taught? What if we could see the complexity of English as a powerful tool rather than a hindrance? --Denise Eide Uncovering the Logic of English challenges the notion that English is illogical by systematically explaining English spelling and answering questions like "Why is there a silent final E in have, large, and house?" and "Why is discussion spelled with -sion rather than -tion?" With easy-to-read examples and anecdotes, this book describes: - the phonograms and spelling rules which explain 98% of English words - how English words are formed and how this knowledge can revolutionize vocabulary development - how understanding the reasons behind English spelling prevents students from needing to guess The author's inspiring commentary makes a compelling case that understanding the logic of English could transform literacy education and help solve America's literacy crisis. Thorough and filled with the latest linguistic and reading research, Uncovering the Logic of English demonstrates why this systematic approach should be as foundational to our education as 1+1=2.

Download or read book Logic Load System written by Alex Brebeanu and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Revolution in Weight training" this should really be the title of this book. Because the system promoted in this book, simply called "Logic Load System", is the future of training and every single person that goes into a gym, from a beginner level up to a high performance athlete, will use it as an ultimate system of training, a complex tool to enhance their performances with a mathematical precision. Logic Load System presents the latest research in Weight training. Whether you are designing a Strength & Conditioning routine for a certain sport or a Bodybuilding session, Logic Load System will provide you with over 30 methods of manipulating the weight and the repetitions, with a mathematical precision, in order to give you the best results and also to build up and plan your sessions over a training cycle. If so far, athletes were just randomly added plates on the bar, usually when increasing from one set to another, with the same ratio, regardless the level of preparation, Logic Load System will teach you how to customize the weight and the repetitions according to your level (beginner or advanced athlete) and stage of preparation ( preparatory, precompetitional, competitional or transition). At the moment, most athletes are using mainly 2-3 methods of increasing and/or decreasing the weight from set to set : - increasing the weight every set - increasing the weight every second step - increasing and then decreasing the weight Moreover, the weight is increased with 5kg, 10kg, 15 or 20kg, as this is pretty much the weight of the plates in most gyms. Consequently, the athletes are expecting to gradually increase their overall effort which is often a false affirmation. If nobody asked themselves why increasing it with 5, 10, 15 or 20 kg, now is the time to do so, because there is nothing wrong with 4, 12, 16 or 18 kg (for example) Logic Load System will clearly explain you with practical examples and graphs why and how much to increase the weight and gradually increase the overall effort from set to set, instead of just randomly throw plates on the bar with no logic in it whatsoever and yet expecting the best results. There are no two athletes with perfectly the same level of fitness and therefore the training should be different from athlete to athlete. Increasing the weight with 30 kg has a different effect on a beginner athlete as opposed to an advanced athlete. Logic Load System will teach you how to customize the weight and the reps to fit your current level of preparation and to prepare you for further improvement. Now is the time to stop being a follower. It is the time to make it work for you and be in charge of your own progress. On the same note, most of the athletes are using the same patterns of repetitions when increasing the weight from set to set. A common pattern is 12 reps -10 reps 8 reps 6 reps. Whether you are aiming for strength, power or hypertrophy, this is regarded as being the universal answer to achieve the best results one pattern fits all purposes. To claim that 4 or 5 sets at a pattern of 12 reps 10 reps 8 reps 6 reps is the best pattern for EVERY athlete is totally illogic. To claim that there is only one way to achieve your goal, is more than irrational. To claim that increasing the weight from set to set with the same ratio, regardless the stage and the level of athlete's preparation is totally ignorant. This approach has to change and Logic Load System is the only system in the world that will show you why and how to do it. Again, it is more than sure that is nothing wrong with a pattern of 11-9-7-5 reps, for example, but I very rarely saw athletes performing this pattern as we tend to perform a pattern of even number of repetitions, avoiding the odd numbers repetitions as being to odd As is not only how hard an athlete could train, but also how smart, Logic Load System will demonstrate you how many reps should be performed and, m
