Introduction to Curling Strategy by Gabrielle Coleman Pdf

Have more fun watching and playing curling with this new guide to "chess on ice"! "Introduction to Curling Strategy" is the first comprehensive book on modern curling strategy. It uses an intuitive approach (and lots of pictures) to make curling strategy easy to understand, even for people who are totally new to the sport. It works through classic scenarios that commonly occur at all levels of curling. And, it shows advanced curlers how to pick tactics based on goals and "intent," rather than play shot-to-shot. The book is organized into five parts: Part 1: Curling Basics-A brief introduction to curling for people who are new to the sport, plus basic information you must know to understand the rest of the book Part 2: Strategy Basics-Fundamental concepts that underlie all curling strategy Part 3: Tactics in Depth-Opens and endings. Decide how you want an end to finish, then pick the right opening moves to get you there. Part 4: Strategy Scenarios-Navigating the nebulous middle of an end. This section uses interactive puzzles to show you how to stay focused and steer play towards the ending you want. Part 5: Putting It All Together and Playing in the Real World-Follow a real game, shot by shot, and see how skips make-and stick with-plans. This section also covers "real world" situations, like curling on arena ice, and playing with new curlers who are still learning to make basic shots. The book also makes a great textbook for curling classes! (Author's note: There are three versions of this book - color paperback, black and white paperback, and e-book - so everyone can have access to curling knowledge at an affordable price.)

Body Mechanics - Beginner's Guide to Fitness by Mark R. Hailey Pdf

For many people, the thought of getting into shape –– or just the act of exercising for that matter –– is like throwing a speeding locomotive into reverse. An enormous amount of energy has to come to a loud, grinding halt in a short period of time, and then slowly begin to move in the opposite direction. Getting into shape, biologically, is a relatively easy process; the hard part, more often than not, is simply getting started. Being physically fit takes commitment, discipline, concentration, and an overall desire to succeed. Making the commitment to physical fitness, in many ways, presents a greater challenge than the weights and workout routines that will follow; and in the beginning, many people make the mistake of training too hard and too fast, causing soreness, frustration, and discouragement. Walking blindly into a gym and grabbing a piece of equipment in the hopes that something will happen will never work. To achieve your fitness goals, you need to plan your work –– and work your plan. Body Mechanics - Beginner's Guide to Fitness helps you create that plan, by helping you understand your body, and the changes beginning an exercise program will play upon it. Body Mechanics - Beginner's Guide to Fitness covers the importance of making a commitment to exercise, and what results you can expect in the first month. How to keep up your motivation, and develop a fitness program that is right for you. Understanding the importance of weight training and cardiovascular training –– and how to get the maximum benefits of both. Knowing the muscles in the human body and detailed instructions on performing different exercises to work each one; employing proper form to achieve maximum results. Changing one’s lifestyle is never easy, especially when food, schedules, and physical exertion are involved. Body Mechanics - Beginner's Guide to Fitness helps ease you into the world of physical fitness. Taking your new exercise program one step at a time helps to condition your body to respond positively to the exciting changes that will come.

Hair Rules! by Anthony Dickey Pdf

Kinky, curly, or wavy hair isn’t “problem” hair—it’s just hair with a different set of rules! For too long, hairstylists and hair-care companies have ignored the needs of women with kinky, curly, or wavy hair, focusing on it as “problem” hair rather than celebrating its unique texture. But now hair-care and style expert A. Dickey, considered by top magazine beauty editors to be the foremost authority on caring for, cutting, and styling curly hair, has written Hair Rules! to end the frustration faced by women with curly hair every day. Hair Rules! is chock-full of simple tips for all types of curly hair and covers everything from the best shampoos and conditioners to use, to damage-free hair-drying (dust off that hood dryer!), the use of natural oils, and the safest coloring, styling, and chemical relaxing techniques—as well as guidelines for maintaining healthy, gorgeous hair. “My mission,” writes Dickey, “is simple: to advise and encourage all women with nonstraight hair to strive to attain their beauty, whatever their ethnicity, and whatever their tastes.”
