Book excerpt: “Dr. Sims realizes that female athletes are different than male athletes and you can’t set your race schedule around your monthly cycle. ROAR will help every athlete understand what is happening to her body and what the best nutritional strategy is to perform at her very best.”—Evie Stevens, Olympian, professional road cyclist, and current women’s UCI Hour record holder Women are not small men. Stop eating and training like one. Because most nutrition products and training plans are designed for men, it’s no wonder that so many female athletes struggle to reach their full potential. ROAR is a comprehensive, physiology-based nutrition and training guide specifically designed for active women. This book teaches you everything you need to know to adapt your nutrition, hydration, and training to your unique physiology so you can work with, rather than against, your female physiology. Exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist Stacy T. Sims, PhD, shows you how to be your own biohacker to achieve optimum athletic performance. Complete with goal-specific meal plans and nutrient-packed recipes to optimize body composition, ROAR contains personalized nutrition advice for all stages of training and recovery. Customizable meal plans and strengthening exercises come together in a comprehensive plan to build a rock-solid fitness foundation as you build lean muscle where you need it most, strengthen bone, and boost power and endurance. Because women’s physiology changes over time, entire chapters are devoted to staying strong and active through pregnancy and menopause. No matter what your sport is—running, cycling, field sports, triathlons—this book will empower you with the nutrition and fitness knowledge you need to be in the healthiest, fittest, strongest shape of your life.

From the Back Cover HIGHEST PRAISE FOR The Little Man By ANDY LITTLETON "This is indeed the story of a 'little' man. But it is far more than that. It's the story of the son of a 'little' man sorting out what truly matters in his life. It is as much Andy's story as his father's. Throughout the beautiful and gentle weaving of this tribute you will meet many obscure 'little' people whose lives richly matter. You will visit back roads and hidden away places few ever see or know. You will walk away from the book with your own haunting longing to see the world as small, quiet, and full of grace. --Rod Hugen Pastor at The Village Community in Tucson "The Little Man" presents a man whose simple life is a pleasant contrast to the models of manhood and fatherhood usually presented to us today. Leroy, was a down to earth man who achieved what every father desires - the admiration of his son. This story gives fathers an oportunity to reflect on the way their life teaches their kids. For children it reminds us to celebrate and enjoy quiet lessons taught to us over a lifetime." --Jesse Wood Pastor of Naco Christian Church & Founder of Cafe Cultiva "It's rare to get a peak inside the head of the quiet, of the unassuming and the overlooked. "The Little Man" does much to bring out beauty in small places, wonder and grace in the dusty, quiet in-betweens of open spaces and the people that fill it. The story is told through a tender relationship of son to father, which makes the usually unspeakable all the more heartfelt." --Amy Smith Owner / Manager - Exo Roast Co.

Download or read book Big Trifles and Little People written by Anatol M. Kotenev and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 1999-12 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Big Trifles and Little People is a remarkable collection of reminiscences about a fascinating time in Russia—a time of Tsar Nicolas II, head of the great Romanov family, and of the Bolshevik revolution. But it was the view of the author that “little people, trifles and personal memories have the right to be heard, just as the feats of the great.” With that in mind, he unfolds a narrative of joy, terror and ultimately, of his triumph of will over the forces which drove him from the homeland of his noble forefathers. The description of the fancy dress balls at Elizabethgrad Cavalry College, where he trained to become an officer with the Cossack Cavalry, is lilting and full of color. The surprisingly luxurious life of the Russian officers in the wilds of China is unfolded in wonderful detail. The description of the instant he was shot and crippled for life in the Russo-Japanese war is gripping and unforgettable. The book focuses on encounters with the “little” people such as Shick, the Jewish scribe; Kaloev, the Muslim tea salesman; Zhao, proprietor of the Fudzian stock market; and Kate, an American prostitute. However, encounters with the “great” people are not ignored. These include personal meetings with the Empress Dowager of China, with Tsar Nicolas II and even with Rasputin. Big Trifles and Little People provides a rare opportunity to experience the “real” Russia of the early twentieth century as recalled by an astute observer of the times.
