Book Synopsis Learning to Breathe Fire by : J.C. Herz
Download or read book Learning to Breathe Fire written by J.C. Herz and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The absorbing, definitive account of CrossFit's origins, its explosive grassroots growth, and its emergence as a global phenomenon. One of the most illuminating books ever on a sports subculture, Learning to Breathe Fire combines vivid sports writing with a thoughtful meditation on what it means to be human. In the book, veteran journalist J.C. Herz explains the science of maximum effort, why the modern gym fails an obese society, and the psychic rewards of ending up on the floor feeling as though you're about to die. The story traces CrossFit’s rise, from a single underground gym in Santa Cruz to its adoption as the workout of choice for elite special forces, firefighters and cops, to its popularity as the go-to fitness routine for regular Joes and Janes. Especially riveting is Herz’s description of The CrossFit Games, which begin as an informal throw-down on a California ranch and evolve into a televised global proving ground for the fittest men and women on Earth, as well as hundreds of thousands of lesser mortals. In her portrayal of the sport's star athletes, its passionate coaches and its “chief armorer,” Rogue Fitness, Herz powerfully evokes the uniqueness of a fitness culture that cultivates primal fierceness in average people. And in the shared ordeal of an all-consuming workout, she unearths the ritual intensity that's been with us since humans invented sports, showing us how, on a deep level, we're all tribal hunters and first responders, waiting for the signal to go all-out.

Download or read book Mindset written by John Spera and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-30 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oftentimes what separates us from being the firefighter we are and the firefighter we want to be is our mindset. Our mindset is the foundation of a lifestyle that is in line with whom we want to become. It keeps us disciplined to do the necessary daily work to uphold our end of the deal - the oath. This book has been created to help us all develop or reinforce the mindset required to consistently train so that we can serve our communities at the highest level. This performance level is what we would expect from any firefighter who shows up to one of our own homes. Our hope is that this book will assist you in creating and sustaining the discipline to maintain a high standard. Perhaps your mindset is already solid, in which case this book will help you take your training to the next level. It is a book that should be revisited time and time again for those seasons of our careers when the excuses seem to be stronger than our purpose. We believe the pages that follow will position you to overcome the natural human desire to take the path of least resistance and to consistently seek the necessary discomfort to be the firefighter you said you would be.
