Описание: Improve your physique, build lean muscle, increase strength--Glute Lab is the all-in-one glute training system that will teach you how to do all this and more.

The gluteus maximus is the largest and most versatile muscle in the human body. In addition to being aesthetically appealing and controlling a wide range of functional movements, big, strong glutes set you up to lift heavier, jump higher, sprint faster, and swing harder and can even play a role in preventing knee, hip, and lower back pain and injuries.

Your glutes influence every aspect of your physical life: from the way you look and how you feel to your ability to run, jump, cut, lift, and twist. Yet few understand how to properly build and develop this all-important muscle.

Enter Glute Lab. In this book, Bret "The Glute Guy" Contreras--PhD, personal trainer, and bestselling author--lays out a glute training system that will help you reach your strength, performance, and physique goals. Through descriptive narrative, step-by-step images and illustrations, and easy-to-follow training programs, the Glute Guy distills the science and art of glute training into one comprehensive manual.

Whether you're a bodybuilder, physique competitor, athlete, powerlifter, CrossFitter, personal trainer, physical therapist, or simply someone who wants to improve your physique, this book contains everything you need to know about building bigger, stronger, leaner, higher-performing glutes.

In this book, you will learn:

• The fundamentals of optimal glute training
• How to perform the most effective glute-building exercises

Описание: "When women tell stories, they are finally at the center of the page. When women of color write history, we see the world as we have never seen it before. In Fruit of the Drunken Tree, Ingrid Rojas Contreras honors the lives of girls who witness war. Brava I was swept up by this story."
--Sandra Cisneros, author of The House on Mango Street

In the vein of Isabel Allende and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a mesmerizing debut set against the backdrop of the devastating violence of 1990's Colombia about a sheltered young girl and a teenage maid who strike an unlikely friendship that threatens to undo them both

The Santiago family lives in a gated community in Bogota, safe from the political upheaval terrorizing the country. Seven-year-old Chula and her older sister Cassandra enjoy carefree lives thanks to this protective bubble, but the threat of kidnappings, car bombs, and assassinations hover just outside the neighborhood walls, where the godlike drug lord Pablo Escobar continues to elude authorities and capture the attention of the nation.
When their mother hires Petrona, a live-in-maid from the city's guerrilla-occupied slum, Chula makes it her mission to understand Petrona's mysterious ways. But Petrona's unusual behavior belies more than shyness. She is a young woman crumbling under the burden of providing for her family as the rip tide of first love pulls her in the opposite direction. As both girls' families scramble to maintain stability amidst the rapidly escalating conflict, Petrona and Chula find themselves entangled in a web of secrecy that will force them both to choose between sacrifice and betrayal.
Inspired by the author's own life, and told through the alternating perspectives of the willful Chula and the achingly hopeful Petrona, Fruit of the Drunken Tree contrasts two very different, but inextricable coming-of-age stories. In lush prose, Rojas Contreras sheds light on the impossible choices women are often forced to make in the face of violence and the unexpected connections that can blossom out of desperation.

Описание: Les annees 1960 et 1970 ont vu se developper un art de la contemporaneite faisant interagir l’?uvre d’imagination et l’intelligibilite de la societe, souvent dans des actions collectives et interdisciplinaires. Ainsi les mouvements de contestation en faveur d’un nouvel equilibre mondial et societal apparaissent-ils comme le pendant politique de l’eclatement des categories et des pratiques artistiques, et inversement. Ils inscrivent la perception de ces annees-la comme celles d’une marche commune de l’avant-garde artistique et de l’avant-garde politique, c’est-a-dire des nouvelles manieres d’intervenir dans le champ artistique et de celles qui, dans le champ du pouvoir, s’inscrivent en dehors des voies de la politique classique. Avec pour objet des ?uvres issues des avant-gardes artistiques des annees 1960 et 1970, les etudes de cas interdisciplinaires qui composent cet ouvrage reviennent sur ce parallele afin de le questionner et d’examiner en detail les multiples interpenetrations qui se sont nouees entre art et politique a ce moment historique marque par de profondes transformations socio-culturelles.

Описание: Structural and functional organization in living organisms relies on their communication systems, which permanently carry information to the cells within the organism and govern their entire behavior from simple actions to complex behaviors. Rhesus monkeys are one of the animal species most commonly used in biomedical research due to their phylogenetic closeness to humans. Also, the social structure and behavior found in these monkeys are very similar to those of humans, and this makes them an excellent comparative and evolutionary model of study mainly for their importance in the construction, structure and maintenance of social groups. This book is a compilation of different research works that attempt to understand the underlying mechanisms involved in the expression of characteristic behaviors in the primate order, and the authors hope to unify both the biological and social sciences.

Описание:

You Choose Stupid is a compilation of experiences, hard work and mistakes that have been reduced to words in a very short book. It is the product, not of the author's counseling, but garnished from the many wasted lives he has seen who have gotten involved in the criminal justice system. It is a menu of the mistakes that ruin these lives.

The author has catalogued many of the mistakes people make in life which could have been avoided. With a vast wealth of experience, the author can, with all degree of certainty, say, "You follow this advice, you will have a good, long and prosperous life." It is the goal of this work to open the eyes of the readers, those in jail and prison, and those who are on the wrong path; that they can enjoy life instead of being locked up in cages just as the result of poor judgment.

Stupid is a choice you make, don't do it

Описание:

Schwartz's second collection of poems examines the legacy of trauma and abuse among a family of women--and the ability of women and girls to survive. At times searing in grief, in other moments patient and willing to accept, Schwartz questions the truth behind any survival, what it looks like for a girl to emerge from the bottom of any cenote, or a city's residents to move forward after a hundred-year flood.

Call all thriving things illegal: / The magnolia tree, its roots, / That vast network of veins that feeds itself / And others like it in dry soil, / Pushes space through concrete sidewalks / To breathe ... Every tough, gnarled thing holding / Its own life in a fist of vitality is illegal.

--from" Everything is Illegal," Nightbloom & Cenote
