Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I am blown away by the level of detail Phil Cavell brings to his work.' Elinor Barker MBE, multiple world champion and Olympic gold medallist 'Phil is eminently qualified to write the Midlife Cyclist. Well, he is certainly old enough.' Fabian Cancellara, Tour de France rider and two-time Olympic champion 'An amazing accomplishment... a simple-to-understand précis of your midlife as a cyclist – you won't want to put it down.' Phil Liggett, TV cycling commentator 'I'm determined to grow old gracefully in lycra, and Phil Cavell has been helping me to do it successfully for years.' Gary Kemp Renowned cycling biomechanics pioneer, Phil Cavell, explores the growing trend of middle-aged and older cyclists seeking to achieve high-level performance. Using contributions from leading coaches, ex-professionals and pro-team doctors, he produces the ultimate manifesto for mature riders who want to stay healthy, avoid injury – and maximise their achievement levels.

An ever-growing number of us are determined to scale the highest peaks of elite physical fitness into middle-age and beyond. Can the emerging medical and scientific research help us achieve the holy triumvirate of speed and health with age? The Midlife Cyclist offers a gold standard road-map for the mature cyclist who aims to train, perform and even race at the highest possible level.
Download or read book The Mental Cyclist written by Kyle MacRae and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-07-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mental Cyclist will change the way you think about your cycling, and yourself, so you can do more on your bike. Your mind is smart. It knows you inside out. But sometimes it tells you stories. Negative stories that shatter your self-confidence. Then, when you think about doing something challenging, something you'd love to do, your mind goes: nope. The stories aren't real. But they feel real. So they limit your ambitions. Affect your performance. Spoil your fun. The Mental Cyclist will help you see these stories for what they really are - and demolish the psychological barriers that hold you back. Rationally. Mindfully. Permanently. Change your mind. Change your ride. As you break free from the barriers, you'll learn how to make your mind work for you, not against you. You'll design the cyclist you really want to be, and commit to your personal Mental Cyclist Challenge - an ultimate personal cycling challenge that takes you well beyond your current comfort zone. 300 pages of fully accessible learning 12-stage Mental Cyclist Manifesto - practical mind training for cyclists 30 powerful journal exercises for developing deep self-expertise 12-week planner for tracking emotional progress towards your Mental Cyclist Challenge Becoming a Mental Cyclist is not about pushing your body through the pain barrier and achieving superhuman feats in the saddle. Nor is about changing your personality, or balancing your chakras, or asking the universe to magically make your life better. It's much more powerful than that. More than a marginal gain. It's about getting to know yourself better so you can do anything you want to do. The Mental Cyclist Manifesto At the heart of The Mental Cyclist is this 12-stage practical exploration of what's really going on inside your head when you ride. The text provides the learning, and the user exercises help you build expertise in yourself. You complete the exercises journal-style within the book as you go along. When you understand what holds you back and what drives you forward, you'll learn how to change your mind to change your ride. STAGE 1 - SUPERCHARGE YOUR SELF-ESTEEM STAGE 2 - SUSTAIN YOUR SUPERPOWER STAGE 3 - MAXIMISE YOUR MOTIVATION STAGE 4 - FEEL THE FUN STAGE 5 - SQUASH SELF-CRITICISM STAGE 6 - BIN THOSE LIMITING BELIEFS STAGE 7 - SHAKE OFF THE STRESS STAGE 8 - THWART THE THREATS STAGE 9 - DESIGN YOUR DEFENCES STAGE 10 - FIND YOUR FLOW STAGE 11 - ESCALATE YOUR EXPERTISE STAGE 12 - COMMIT TO YOUR CHALLENGE Your Mental Cyclist Challenge Why a challenge? Because a challenge is a goal, and goals keep life interesting. They motivate us to get off our butts and go do cool stuff. Your comfort zone is the mental equivalent of an easy ride. It's pleasant enough but it's well within your capability. If your comfort zone was a colour, it would be beige. The colour least likely to excite or delight, to stir your loins or set your heart on fire. Your Mental Cyclist Challenge will be something that does set your heart on fire. Something that motivates you to push beyond your comfort zone. Something that makes you think you might fail (but you won't). Something you know you'd really, really love to do (and you will). The Mental Cyclist will help you design the ultimate personal challenge for you, and then plan your milestones and goals, and finally monitor your progress in a 12-week tracker. The Mental Cyclist is designed for recreational cyclists of every age, ability and ambition.
Download or read book Mind is the Ride written by Jet McDonald and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-16 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jet McDonald cycled four thousand miles to India and back, he didn’t want to write a straightforward account. He wanted to go on an imaginative journey. The age of the travelogue is over: today we need to travel inwardly to see the world with fresh eyes. Mind is the Ride is that journey, a pedal-powered antidote to the petrol-driven philosophies of the past. The book takes the reader on a physical and intellectual adventure from West to East using the components of the bike as a metaphor for philosophy, which is woven into the cyclist's experience. Each chapter is based around a single component, and as Jet travels he adds new parts and new philosophies until the bike is 'built'; the ride to India is completed; and the relationship between mind, body and bicycle made apparent.
Download or read book Taming the Bicycle written by Mark Twain and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-01-06 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taming the Bicycle is a short essay by Mark Twain. Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 - April 21, 1910), better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist. He wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), the latter often called "The Great American Novel." Twain grew up in Hannibal, Missouri, which provided the setting for Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer. After an apprenticeship with a printer, he worked as a typesetter and contributed articles to the newspaper of his older brother, Orion Clemens. He later became a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi River before heading west to join Orion in Nevada. He referred humorously to his singular lack of success at mining, turning to journalism for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise. In 1865, his humorous story, "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," was published, based on a story he heard at Angels Hotel in Angels Camp, California, where he had spent some time as a miner. The short story brought international attention, and was even translated into classic Greek. His wit and satire, in prose and in speech, earned praise from critics and peers, and he was a friend to presidents, artists, industrialists, and European royalty. Though Twain earned a great deal of money from his writings and lectures, he invested in ventures that lost a great deal of money, notably the Paige Compositor, a mechanical typesetter, which failed because of its complexity and imprecision. In the wake of these financial setbacks, he filed for protection from his creditors via bankruptcy, and with the help of Henry Huttleston Rogers eventually overcame his financial troubles. Twain chose to pay all his pre-bankruptcy creditors in full, though he had no legal responsibility to do so. Twain was born shortly after a visit by Halley's Comet, and he predicted that he would "go out with it," too. He died the day after the comet returned. He was lauded as the "greatest American humorist of his age," and William Faulkner called Twain "the father of American literature." Twain began his career writing light, humorous verse, but evolved into a chronicler of the vanities, hypocrisies and murderous acts of mankind. At mid-career, with Huckleberry Finn, he combined rich humor, sturdy narrative and social criticism. Twain was a master at rendering colloquial speech and helped to create and popularize a distinctive American literature built on American themes and language. Many of Twain's works have been suppressed at times for various reasons. Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has been repeatedly restricted in American high schools, not least for its frequent use of the word "nigger," which was in common usage in the pre-Civil War period in which the novel was set.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the nationally bestselling, true story of a life-changing friendship between a man and his rescue cat, Nala, as they adventure together on a bike journey around the world -- from the Instagram phenomenon @1bike1world. When 30-year-old Dean Nicholson set off from Scotland to cycle around the world, his aim was to learn as much as he could about our troubled planet. But he hadn't bargained on the lessons he'd learn from his unlikely companion. Three months after leaving home, on a remote road in the mountains between Montenegro and Bosnia, he came across an abandoned kitten. Something about the piercing eyes and plaintive meowing of the bedraggled little cat proved irresistible. He couldn't leave her to her fate, so he put her on his bike and then, with the help of local vets, nursed her back to health. Soon on his travels with the cat he named Nala, they forged an unbreakable bond -- both curious, independent, resilient and adventurous. The video of how they met has had 20 million views and their Instagram has grown to almost 750k followers -- and still counting! Experiencing the kindness of strangers, visiting refugee camps, rescuing animals through Europe and Asia, Dean and Nala have already learned that the unexpected can be pretty amazing. Together with Garry Jenkins, writer with James Bowen of the bestselling A Street Cat Named Bob, Dean shares the extraordinary tale of his and Nala's inspiring and heart-warming adventure together.

Book Synopsis Your Brain on a Bike by : Amy Shojai
Download or read book Your Brain on a Bike written by Amy Shojai and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your Brain on a Bike takes the reader where no other book on cycling has gone -- inside the mind of the competitive cyclist. Other books concentrate on the physical aspects of cycling; this book builds the mental strength of the cyclist. The book's premise -- Your body powers the bike; your brain powers your body -- illustrates how to achieve peak performance by controlling thoughts and emotions. In this book I called upon the lessons learned from my cycling experiences, extensive research on attaining peak performance by managing thoughts and emotions, the hundreds of seminars I have conducted teaching success methods and concepts, and coaching from my mentors to express my philosophy that your body powers your bike but your brain powers your body. I compare Your Brain on a Bike to the groundbreaking 1974 book by E. Timothy Gallwey, The Inner Game of Tennis. Mr. Gallwey's book was the first to instruct solely on the mental aspects of a sport. Your Brain on a Bike will open new realms of possibilities for anyone who wants to achieve greater performance not only in cycling but also in endurance sports such as triathlons, running, climbing and cross-country skiing. Your Brain on a Bike delivers a need that no one else has addressed. Timothy Gallwey filled the same need for tennis players in 1974 with his book, The Inner game of Tennis. My book will do the same for cyclists and other endurance athletes. Cycling coaches, racers and competitive riders will recognize the uniqueness of the book's premise and will add it to their library. Astute coaches of other endurance athletes, such as tri-athletes, runners, and climbers will use the information in the book to enhance the training of their clients.

Book Synopsis The Art of Cycling by : James Hibbard
Download or read book The Art of Cycling written by James Hibbard and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2021-06-03 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A meditative love letter to the sport of cycling, THE ART OF CYCLING traces the journey of a former professional racer regaining his love for the sport and shows how cycling can shed new light on age-old questions of selfhood, meaning, and purpose. Interweaving cycling, philosophy, and personal narrative, THE ART OF CYCLING provides readers with a deep understanding into the highs and lows of being an elite athlete, the limits of approaching any sporting pursuit from a strictly rational perspective, and how the philosophical and often counterintuitive lessons derived from sport can be applied to other areas of life. Accessible to everyone from the hardened racer to the casual fan, THE ART OF CYCLING engages the history of thought through the lens of cycling to undermine much of what is typically thought of as "intellectual", breathing new vitality into life, and countering society's obsession with progress and drive towards the abstract, detached, and virtual.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolutionary new approach to ADD/ADHD featuring cutting-edge research and strategies to help readers thrive, by the bestselling authors of the seminal books Driven to Distraction and Delivered from Distraction “An inspired road map for living with a distractible brain . . . If you or your child suffer from ADHD, this book should be on your shelf. It will give you courage and hope.”—Michael Thompson, Ph.D., New York Times bestselling co-author of Raising Cain World-renowned authors Dr. Edward M. Hallowell and Dr. John J. Ratey literally “wrote the book” on ADD/ADHD more than two decades ago. Their bestseller, Driven to Distraction, largely introduced this diagnosis to the public and sold more than a million copies along the way. Now, most people have heard of ADHD and know someone who may have it. But lost in the discussion of both childhood and adult diagnosis of ADHD is the potential upside: Many hugely successful entrepreneurs and highly creative people attribute their achievements to ADHD. Also unknown to most are the recent research developments, including innovations that give a clearer understanding of the ADHD brain in action. In ADHD 2.0, Drs. Hallowell and Ratey, both of whom have this “variable attention trait,” draw on the latest science to provide both parents and adults with ADHD a plan for minimizing the downside and maximizing the benefits of ADHD at any age. They offer an arsenal of new strategies and lifestyle hacks for thriving with ADHD, including • Find the right kind of difficult. Use these behavior assessments to discover the work, activity, or creative outlet best suited to an individual’s unique strengths. • Reimagine environment. What specific elements to look for—at home, at school, or in the workplace—to enhance the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit inherent in the ADHD mind. • Embrace innate neurological tendencies. Take advantage of new findings about the brain’s default mode network and cerebellum, which confer major benefits for people with ADHD. • Tap into the healing power of connection. Tips for establishing and maintaining positive connection “the other Vitamind C” and the best antidote to the negativity that plagues so many people with ADHD. • Consider medication. Gets the facts about the underlying chemistry, side effects, and proven benefits of all the pharmaceutical options. As inspiring as it is practical, ADHD 2.0 will help you tap into the power of this mercurial condition and find the key that unlocks potential.
