Book excerpt: Adrianna Rossi is no stranger to the rigorous demands required of her body. Years of pain and determination make her one of the best. Olympic glory is the ultimate goal, and she'll do anything to achieve it. Even if that means leaving home to attend World Cup Academy of Gymnastics, a training center that serves one purpose--producing champions.Perfection, precision, and dedication are required of his athletes. When two time Olympian Konstantin Kournakova is persuaded into training the young hopeful, he immediately regrets it. She doesn't come close to his high standards. As the relentless pursuit of her dream keeps her striving, a passion is ignited within him.Kova's power and domination, coupled with Adrianna's fierce tenacity, reveal there is more for her body to learn. Every interaction can be misconstrued, but there's no mistaking the darkening of his gaze, the lingering of his touch, or the illicit image of his bare skin pressed against hers. Integrity is on the line. One toe off the beam and their forbidden desires could ruin everything they've worked for, throwing it all off balance.

Download or read book Women's Artistic Gymnastics written by Roslyn Kerr and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book lifts the lid on the high pressured, complex world of women’s artistic gymnastics. By adopting a socio-cultural lens incorporating historical, sociological and psychological perspectives, it takes the reader through the story and workings of women’s artistic gymnastics. Beginning with its early history as a ‘feminine appropriate’ sport, the book follows the sport through its transition to a modern sports form. Including global cases and innovative narrative methods, it explores the way gymnasts have experienced its intense challenges, the complexities of the coach-athlete relationship, and how others involved in the sport, such as parents and medical personnel, have contributed to the reproduction of a highly demanding and potentially abusive sporting culture. With the focus on a unique women’s sport, the book is an important read for researchers and students studying sport sociology, sport coaching, and physical education, but it is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the development of sporting talent.

Book excerpt: The true story of the 1986 U.S. National Gymnastics champion whose lifelong dream was to compete in the Olympics, until anorexia, injuries, and coaching abuses nearly destroyed her Fanciful dreams of gold medals and Nadia Comaneci led Jennifer Sey to become a gymnast at the age of six. She was a natural at the sport, and her early success propelled her family to sacrifice everything to help her become, by age eleven, one of America’s elite,competing at prestigious events worldwide alongside such future gymnastics’ luminaries as Mary Lou Retton. But as she set her sights higher and higher—the senior national team, the World Championships, the 1988 Olympics—Sey began to change, putting her needs, her health, and her well-being aside in the name of winning. And the adults in her life refused to notice her downward spiral. In Chalked Up Sey reveals the tarnish behind her gold medals. A powerful portrait of intensity and drive, eating disorders and stage parents, abusive coaches and manipulative businessmen, denial and the seduction of success, it is the story of a young girl whose dreams would become eclipsed by the adults around her. As she recounts her experiences, Sey sheds light on the destructiveness of our winning-is-everything culture where underage and underweight girls are celebrated and on the need for balance in children’s lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named a best beach/summer read by O, The Oprah Magazine, Cosmopolitan, Parade, PopSugar, Marie Claire, Bustle, and more! From the author of the Love at First Like and Playing with Matches, an electrifying rom-com set in the high stakes world of competitive gymnastics, full of Hannah Orenstein’s signature “charm, whimsy, and giddy romantic tension” (BuzzFeed). The past seven years have been hard on Avery Abrams: After training her entire life to make the Olympic gymnastics team, a disastrous performance ended her athletic career for good. Her best friend and teammate, Jasmine, went on to become an Olympic champion, then committed the ultimate betrayal by marrying their emotionally abusive coach, Dimitri. Now, reeling from a breakup with her football star boyfriend, Avery returns to her Massachusetts hometown, where new coach Ryan asks her to help him train a promising young gymnast with Olympic aspirations. Despite her misgivings and worries about the memories it will evoke, Avery agrees. Back in the gym, she’s surprised to find sparks flying with Ryan. But when a shocking scandal in the gymnastics world breaks, it has shattering effects not only for the sport but also for Avery and her old friend Jasmine. Perfect for fans of Emily Giffin and Jasmine Guillory, Head Over Heels proves that no one “writes about modern relationships with more humor or insight than Hannah Orenstein” (Dana Schwartz, author of Choose Your Own Disaster).

Download or read book Identification and Conceptualization of Expert High Performance Gymnastic Coaches' Knowledge written by Jean Côté and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An expert system approach (Buchanan et al., 1983) was used to identify and conceptualize the knowledge of 17 Canadian expert high performance gymnastic coaches. The selection of expert high performance coaches was based on multiple criteria. First, a minimum of 10 years of coaching experience was required. Second, each of the expert coaches required a performance outcome measure, and thus needed to have developed at least one international and two national level gymnasts. Finally, each expert coach had to be recognized by Canada's national coach as one of the best in Canada for developing elite gymnasts. By using a qualitative research method based on the traditions of cognitive anthropology (Spradley, 1979) and symbolic interactionism (Blumer, 1969; Glaser & Strauss, 1967), this study focused on the first two stages of the knowledge aquisition process for building an expert system: identification and conceptualization. The results of the identification stage indicated that the interview transcripts of coaches of males and females were divided into 595 and 560 meaningful episodes of information or "meaning units" (Tesch, 1990), respectively. The inductive analysis process allowed these meaning units to be regrouped into 134 properties, 28 categories, and 6 components. The components emerging from the analysis were the same for coaches of males and females and consisted of: (1) competition, (2) training, (3) organization, (4) coach's personal characteristics, (5) gymnast's personal characteristics and level of development, and (6) contextual factors. The categories and properties of coaches' knowledge varied slightly in number and by their nature for coaches of males and coaches of females. Attempts to explain differences in the categories of knowledge elicited by coaches of males and coaches of females were made in light of the evident age-related and gender specific task differences in men's and women's gymnastics. The results of the conceptualization stage indicated that the coaches' mental model of various situations was built through the assessment of three "peripheral components," consisting of their own personal characteristics, the gymnasts' personal characteristics and level of development, and some contextual factors. The mental model resulting from this assessment guided the coaches for their intervention in the "competition," "training," and "organization" components, defined as the "coaching process." The large arsenal of coaches' organized hierarchically through the difference properties, categories, and components allows expert coaches to rapidly assess situations that do not fit their mental model and, consequently make the appropriate changes.
