    The Men's Health Big Book of 15-Minute Workouts: A Leaner,

    Men love shortcuts. If there’s a way to accomplish a job quicker and more efficiently, they’re all
    for it. That goes for work and working out. Now, new research shows that as little as 15 minutes of
    resistance training is just as effective in spiking a man’s metabolism—his fat-burning furnace—as
    a workout lasting more than twice as long. All it takes is 15 minutes to achieve lifelong results—and
    men are more likely to stick to an exercise plan if it’s chopped down to those 15 minutes.
     
    The Men’s Health Big Book of 15-Minute Workouts contains fast-paced circuit training and interval
    workouts that boost calorie burn, build muscle, and fry belly fat in half the time of regular workouts.
    Readers can choose from at-home, body-weight-only workouts and total-body barbell programs to
    exercises that target major muscle groups—the chest, arms, legs, and back—and sport-specific
    workouts. Other highlights include:
    -a special section of 15-minute core workouts to build a rock-hard six-pack
    -an eating plan with delicious meals that take 15 minutes or less to prepare
    -workouts for the office or when you’re traveling and can’t make it to the gym
    -hundreds of tips from America’s best trainers, nutritionists, and exercise scientists

    The Book of Five Rings (Shambhala Classics)

    Here is one of the most insightful texts on the subtle arts of confrontation and victory to emerge from Asian culture. Written not only for martial artists but for leaders in all professions, the book analyzes the process of struggle and mastery over conflict that underlies every level of human interaction.

    The Book of Five Rings —which has become a well-known classic among American business people, studied for its insights into the Japanese approach to business strategy—was composed in 1643 by the famed duelist and undefeated samurai Miyamoto Musashi. Unlike previous editions of The Book of Five Rings, Thomas Cleary’s is an accessible translation, free of jargon, with an introduction that presents the spiritual background of the warrior tradition. Along with Musashi’s text, Cleary translates another important Japanese classic on leadership and strategy: The Book of Family Traditions on the Art of War by Yagyu Munenori, which highlights the ethical and spiritual insights of Taoism and Zen as they apply to the way of the warrior.

    Facing Violence: Preparing for the Unexpected

    Posted by Body Building Exercises | Books on Bodybuilding | Wednesday 12 October 2011 12:32 pm
    Facing Violence: Preparing for the Unexpected

    This book stands alone as an introduction to the context of self-defense. There are seven elements that must be addressed to bring self-defense training to something approaching ‘complete.’ Training that dismisses any of these areas leaves you vulnerable: Legal and ethical implications. To learn self-defense, you must learn force law. The consequence is prison. Side by side with the legal rules, everyone must explore his or her own ethical limitations. Most people don’t really know where this ethical line lies within them. Violence dynamics. Self-defense must teach how attacks happen. You must be able to recognize an attack before it happens and know what kind you are facing. Avoidance. You need to learn and practice not-fighting. Learning includes escape and evasion, verbal de-escalation, and also pure not-be-there avoidance. Counter-ambush. If you didn’t see the precursors or couldn’t successfully avoid the encounter, you will need a handful of actions, trained to reflex level, to deal with a sudden violent attack. Breaking the freeze. Freezing is almost universal in a sudden attack. You must learn to recognize a freeze and break out of one. The fight itself. Most martial arts and self-defense instructors concentrate their time on the fight. It just needs to be in line with how violence really happens in the world. The aftermath. There are potential legal, psychological, and medical effects of engaging in violence no matter how justified. Advanced preparation is critical.
