by Όουεν Τζόουνς

Πολεμικές τέχνες Ο θανατηφόρος συνδυασμός αρχαίων μαχητικών δεξιοτήτων... Όταν οι περισσότεροι ακούνε για πολεμικές τέχνες, συνήθως σκέφτονται εκείνες της Άπω Ανατολής, και είναι αλήθεια ότι οι περισσότερες από τις αρχαίες πολεμικές τέχνες που έχουν ακουστά προέρχονται από εκεί. Η αντίληψη των περισσότερων ανθρώπων για τη φράση «πολεμικές τέχνες» είναι πολύ περιορισμένη. Αρκεί να σκεφτεί κανείς ότι η λέξη «πολεμικές» περιέχει τον πόλεμο και η λέξη «τέχνες» περιέχει τις δεξιότητες ή τις μεθόδους. Αυτό ανοίγει το πεδίο εφαρμογής των λέξεων. Οι πληροφορίες σε αυτό το ηλεκτρονικό βιβλίο σχετικά με διάφορες πτυχές των πολεμικών τεχνών τόσο της Ανατολής όσο και της Δύσης είναι χωρισμένες σε 16 κεφάλαια των 500-600 λέξεων περίπου το καθένα.

1: The Sub-Two-Hour Marathon Is Within Reach?Here?s How It Will Go Down, and What It Can Teach All Runners about Training and Racing

by Philip Maffetone

What will it take to run a marathon in less than two hours?The world's fastest times for the marathon have been dropping since the distance of 26.2 miles was made official nearly one hundred years ago. But after a noticeable decline that occurred for a half century, the times, while still edging lower, have stalled several minutes north of two hours for the past decade.For the first time, 1:59 examines what it will take for an elite distance runner to go sub-two hours. It will require more than raw talent, optimal body size, and great athletic genes. In order to become marathon's Roger Bannister and smash this elusive record, this runner must follow a healthy diet and an individualized training regimen that takes advantage of specific environmental factors ("live high, train low"). Because precious seconds count over each mile run, other critical considerations include improved running form and economy, sharpened mental focus, and wearing the right type of racing flats (or even going barefoot).The athlete who finally breaks distance running's most tantalizing barrier will become a worldwide celebrity overnight. Will the runner be a Kenyan, an Ethiopian, an American, or a marathoner from another country? And how soon will it happen?By providing a unique window into the highly competitive world of elite marathon running, this book also allows running enthusiasts to have a thorough understanding of the true potential of endurance athletes. And in turn, they can apply the same training and racing principles discussed in 1:59 to their own running, whether it's a 10K, half marathon, marathon, or ultramarathon.

100 años de boxeo argentino en 12 combates legendarios

by Diego Morilla Carlos Irusta Ernesto Cherquis Bialo

Un recorrido por la historia del boxeo argentino a través de una selección de peleas insoslayables y de sus figuras más importantes, de la mano de tres de los periodistas que más saben. El 14 de septiembre de 1923, en el Polo Grounds de Nueva York, Luis Firpo y Jack Dempsey se enfrentaron en un combate para el infarto. Firpo regresaría a la argentina con una derrota con gusto a robo para obtener la primera licencia que tuvo el boxeo profesional en el país. Nacía así, cien años atrás, el boxeo argentino. Son muchos los golpes y las figuras que pasaron desde entonces por los cuadriláteros de acá y del mundo. Las doce peleas que se relatan aquí no son las más feroces ni las más taquilleras. Tampoco acaso las "mejores", sino un puñado de las que jalonaron la historia. Todas encierran momentos memorables que duran apenas unos segundos pero dejaron huellas indelebles en el imaginario colectivo. El Torito Suárez llena un estadio para ganarle a Mocoroa. Desde Japón, Pascual Pérez trae el primer campeonato mundial. La rivalidad entre Prada y Gatica trasciende el cuadrilátero para insertarse en la vida política y social de su época. Locche pinta, en su victoria ante Fujii, nuestra primera obra maestra. Ringo Bonavena y Ali protagonizan un verdadero choque de planetas. Y hay más. El uno-dos de Monzón dominando a los medianos de su era. La épica y sangrienta batalla entre Galíndez y Kates. La mano milagrosa del Roña Castro ante Jackson. La hazaña de la Tigresa Acuña desafiando a Christy Martin sin siquiera tener licencia. Maravilla Martínez imponiéndose con talento y drama ante Chávez Jr. El Chino Maidana desafiando al mejor del mundo y poniendo el coraje y los alfajores argentinos en boca de todo el planeta. Cien años de historias escritas en sangre y sudor. Y el relato en las voces de tres generaciones de periodistas que nos traen cada golpe, cada lágrima y cada grito de agonía y de éxtasis de esta gesta que sigue tallando grandes nombres en el deporte argentino.

100 Grey Cups: This Is Our Game

by Stephen Brunt Canadian Football League

This country and its people are made of the same hardy stuff that makes our game and our league. The Grey Cup has helped unite our country for 100 years now. And it has revealed us, built our pride and our sense of Canadianness in annual tributes to effort, sweat and toil. But what does 100 years of history and cultural relevance add up to? When we Canadians look at the Grey Cup, we see far more than a gleaming football trophy; we see a reflection of ourselves. After its first years as an amateur challenge cup, the Grey Cup would go on to be awarded to the best football team in Canada, with Western challengers traveling back east to fall at the hands of the more established Toronto teams. That is, until a group of frustrated Winnipeggers paid an enormous sum during the Depression to buy up star players and bring the cup west for the first time. Following this, the games became about the pride of the country, East versus West, the national identity fought over the gridiron, all chronicled dutifully by bestselling author Stephen Brunt. From the birth of the modern CFL in 1958, through the dynastic Edmonton Eskimos and into the nineties, attempted USA expansion, franchise re-birth in Montreal, 100 Grey Cups has it all: behind-the-scene anecdotes, never-before-seen photographs, and unprecedented access to the CFL archives. It is a must-have for all fans of this national tradition
