Reviews of The Science of Running:"The Science of Running sets the new standard for training theory and physiological data. Every veteran and beginner distance coach needs to have this on their book shelf."-Alan WebbAmerican Record Holder-Mile 3:46.91 "For anyone serious about running, The Science of Running offers the latest information and research for optimizing not only your understanding of training but also your performance. If you want to delve deeper into the world of running and training, this book is for you. You will never look at running the same."-Jackie Areson, 15th at the 2013 World Championships in the 5k. 15:12 5,000m best If you are looking for how to finish your first 5k, this book isn't for you. The Science of Running is written for those of us looking to maximize our performance, get as close to our limits as possible, and more than anything find out how good we can be, or how good our athletes can be. In The Science of Running, elite coach and exercise physiologist Steve Magness integrates the latest research with the training processes of the world's best runners, to deliver an in depth look at how to maximize your performance. It is a unique book that conquers both the scientific and practical points of running in two different sections. The first is aimed at identifying what limits running performance from a scientific standpoint. You will take a tour through the inside of the body, learning what causes fatigue, how we produce energy to run, and how the brain functions to hold you back from super-human performance. In section two, we turn to the practical application of this information and focus on the process of training to achieve your goals. You will learn how to develop training plans and to look at training in a completely different way. The Science of Running does not hold back information and is sure to challenge you to become a better athlete, coach, or exercise scientist in covering such topics as:· What is fatigue? The latest research on looking at fatigue from a brain centered view.· Why VO2max is the most overrated and misunderstood concept in both the lab and on the track· Why "zone" training leads to suboptimal performance.· How to properly individualize training for your own unique physiology.· How to look at the training process in a unique way in terms of stimulus and adaptation.· Full sample training programs from 800m to the marathon.

The Harvard-educated physician and New York Times bestselling author of The Hormone Cure shows you how to grow new receptors for your seven metabolic hormones, making you lose weight and feel great fast! When it comes to weight loss, most people don’t think about hormones. But when you develop resistance to your seven major metabolic hormones—cortisol, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone, leptin, insulin, and estrogen—your body adjusts by increasingly raising your hormone levels and ultimately slowing down your metabolism. And a slower metabolism leads to weight gain and difficulty losing weight. The solution, Dr. Sara Gottfried contends, is to reset the efficiency of your hormones by repairing and growing new hormone receptors. Based on leading scientific research, The Hormone Reset Diet is her proven weight loss and energy program to reverse hormone resistance in just three weeks. It will help you: Boost your metabolism and calorie burning by growing new and fresh thyroid receptors; Increase your weight loss by re-balancing estrogen and progesterone receptors; Reverse your aging by resetting glucocorticoid receptors (for better processing cortisol). For the last twenty years, this Harvard-MIT educated physician has helped thousands of women address the root hormonal causes of what bothers them most: excess weight, lack of energy, aging, and illness. Going beyond her bestselling The Hormone Cure, this program is the next generation of her deep understanding of hormonal optimization for rapid weight loss.

“Crazy busy” is a phrase we use when the week seems to spin out of control—like when the school project has to be done tomorrow but necessitates a trip to the craft store, which you will do after the dental appointment and the PTA meeting on your way to pick up the dog from the vet. How are you going to fit in a meal that leaves you feeling satisfied without kicking you out of ketosis? Crazy Busy Keto makes sticking to a low-carb, ketogenic diet easier than ever by making it simple. Whether you’re juggling work, school, children, pets, travel, or all of the above, you can follow keto with the simple tips and shortcuts outlined in this book. Kristie Sullivan has done the work for you by finding great low-carb options wherever you are, in as much or as little time as you have to eat. From grab-and-go convenience store and grocery store selections to hotel breakfasts to restaurant lunches and dinners, her quick and easy tips will streamline your keto life. There are breakfast options that are faster than a drive-thru, lunch ideas that don’t require refrigeration, and shopping tips that will save you time and money. Kristie has also included special tips for traveling, storing foods on the go, and slashing minutes off the clock each day, along with easy ways to avoid food waste. Each chapter features recipes that can be made without access to a full kitchen and use common ingredients—no special-ordering anything online. Many of the recipes are traditional favorites that can easily be cooked in a microwave, such as lasagna, spinach artichoke dip, and even cheesecake, which can be made with as few as five ingredients and tastes amazing! In addition, Kristie gives ideas for lightning-fast assembled meals that will hit the spot in a pinch. The book also includes shopping lists for stocking your pantry, fridge, and freezer so that you have what you need, when you need it. Sample recipes include: Good Morning Granola Salad Bar Crustless Quiche (grab pre-prepped ingredients from your fridge or shop the grocery store salad bar!) Cold Pizza Bowl Deconstructed Chicken Cordon Bleu Speedy Creamed Spinach Loaded Baked Yellow Squash Cheese Cracker Snacks Peanut Butter Fudge Life isn’t perfect, but your macros can be when you learn how to survive and thrive with Crazy Busy Keto.

Bestselling author Kristie Sullivan teamed up with her teenage kids, Grace and Jonathan, to deliver the ultimate keto family cookbook, Growing Up Keto. This inspiring book stems from Kristie’s personal struggles with growing up obese and then finally finding the right nutritional path for herself and, eventually, her family. The keto lifestyle proved to be the right fit for Kristie, who experienced dramatic weight loss and optimized health. Above and beyond being a success story, Kristie is a busy working mom who is devoted to the health of her two children. When she saw her own daughter begin to struggle with weight just as she had as a child, Kristie committed to supporting her by providing delicious low-carb options, focusing on health instead of weight, and setting an example.
