Massive Iron: The Rep Goal System
Author: Steve Shaw
Publisher: Massive Iron, LLC
ISBN:
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
This is not a book of magic secrets. Instead, it’s a book that boils away the nonsense, leaving you with the mechanisms that truly drive gains. This book presents my core training philosophies and principles, and the Rep Goal System. Future books will build off these principles, and show you many other workout programs and systems that will help you to build muscle and strength. Never waste a set. That is what this book is about. My lifting philosophy is simple: When you maximize every set, you maximize every workout. When you maximize every workout, you maximize progress. It doesn't get any easier than that, does it? Nothing complicated about this approach, yet it’s not exactly something you hear talked about in the lifting industry every day.

The Elements We Live By
Author: Anja Røyne
Publisher: The Experiment
ISBN: 1615196463
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
This “excellent” popular science book explores just what we—and the things around us—are made of (Aftenposten, Norway). Some elements get all the attention: glittering gold, radioactive uranium—materials we call “precious” because they are so rare. But what could be more precious than the building blocks of life—from the oxygen in our air to the carbon in all living things? In The Elements We Live By, physicist and award-winning author Anja Røyne reminds us that we’d be lost without the quiet heroes of the periodic table. Our bodies need phosphorous to hold our DNA together, potassium to power our optic nerves, and many more elements—in just the right amounts—to function. Other fundamental elements keep our technology (and society) running: Our phones contain arsenic, boron, and gallium to control signals and store information; indium and tin for the touch screen; and lithium for the battery. Everything is made of elements—every galaxy, star, and planet—from the iron in Earth’s core to the silicon in its sand. But that doesn’t mean the elements we rely on will never run out; for example, about half the lithium we need is extracted from rocks in Australia, and the other half is from saltwater in Argentina and Chile. As Røyne travels the world to find where these elements exist (some in ever-shrinking amounts), she shows how vitally urgent it is for us to protect them—the elements of our very existence. “Not just a discussion of basic chemistry, this is a volume that looks at the human impact on the planet and what we can learn from nature...Useful for science or sociology courses that address the various impacts of natural resource development or for popular science readers.” —School Library Journal

Dinitrosyl Iron Complexes as a “Working Form” of Nitric Oxide in Living Organisms
Author: Anatoly F. Vanin
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527540758
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
This book sums up the results of more than 50 years’ work on the physico-chemical characteristics and biological activities of dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNIC). The interest of researchers in DNIC increased dramatically after the discovery of the fundamental role of the DNIC constituent nitrogen monoxide (NO) as one of the most universal regulators of metabolic processes occurring in living organisms. By virtue of their ability to donate NO and nitrosonium ions (NO+), DNIC mimic their beneficial (regulatory) and detrimental (cytotoxic) effects on living organisms and represent their “working” form. This text will appeal to practitioners in the field of biology, and other areas of modern-day science.

Breath
Author: Martha Mason
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1608193209
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
After contracting polio as a young girl Martha Mason of tiny Lattimore, North Carolina, lived a record sixty-one of her seventy-one years in an iron lung until her death in 2009, but she never let the 800-pound cylinder define her. The subject of a documentary film, an NPR feature, an ABC News piece, and a widely syndicated New York Times obituary, Martha enjoyed life, and people. From within her iron lung, she graduated first in her class in high school and at Wake Forest University, and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. She was determined to be a writer and, with her devoted mother taking dictation, she became a journalist-but had to give up her career when her father became ill. Still, Martha created for herself a vast and radiant world-holding dinner parties with the table pushed right up to her iron lung, voraciously reading, running her own household, and caring for her mother when she became ill with Alzheimer's and increasingly abusive to Martha. When voice-activated computers became available, Martha wrote Breath, in part as a tribute to her mother. "This book is her story," writes Anne Rivers Siddons in her preface, "told in the rich words of a born writer. That she told it is a gift to everyone who will read it. That she told it is also as near to a miracle as most are likely to encounter."
