Краткое содержание книги: Триатлон 80/20. Формула тренировок, которая позволит показать максимальные достижения в спорте на любых уровнях подготовки. Мэтт Фицджеральд, Дэвид Уорден

Smart Reading

Этот текст – сокращенная версия книги Мэтта Фицджеральда и Дэвида Уордена «Триатлон 80/20. Формула тренировок, которая позволит показать максимальные достижения в спорте на любых уровнях подготовки». Только самые ценные мысли, идеи, кейсы, примеры. О книге Выходя, например, на ежедневную пробежку, мы стараемся двигаться так, чтобы было «не легко и не тяжело». Бежать в таком ритме мы можем намного дольше, чем если бы выбрали быстрый темп. Но исследования показывают, что средние усилия – так называемая «серая зона» – влияют на усталость организма почти так же, как высокие. В результате наш организм получает сильный стресс на длительное время, не справляется с ним и вместо восстановления и гиперкомпенсации накапливает усталость. Нам кажется, что завтра можно снова тренироваться в том же ритме, но это не так. Мэтт Фицджеральд и Дэвид Уорден написали книгу «Триатлон 80/20. Формула тренировок, которая позволит показать максимальные достижения в спорте на любых уровнях подготовки». Их система направлена на то, чтобы тренироваться медленнее – чтобы становиться быстрее на соревнованиях. Теория, на первый взгляд, нелогична, но с ней стоит познакомиться, – исследования подтвердили, что атлеты мирового уровня, которые тренируются спокойно 80 % времени, показывают более высокие результаты, находятся в лучшей форме и чаще избегают травм. Зачем читать • чтобы суметь переключить мозг и выйти из «ловушки серой зоны»; • чтобы повысить эффективность тренировок и получить дополнительный прогресс в спортивных результатах; • чтобы улучшить общее состояние организма и самочувствие; • чтобы чувствовать себя уверенно и спокойно в день соревнований. Об авторе Мэтт Фицджеральд (Matt Fitzgerald) – тренер с 20-летним стажем, специалист по питанию, автор более 20 книг на темы спорта и питания. Ранее – главный редактор Triathlete and competitor. Дэвид Уорден (David Warden) – тренер, глава и основатель тренерской школы David Warden Coaching. Соавтор книги по триатлону Triathlon science. Среди его учеников – рекордсмены мира, победители чемпионатов мира по дуатлону в возрастных группах и множество атлетов, которые квалифицировались на чемпионаты мира.

Элизабет Блэкберн и медицинский психолог Элисса Эпель написали книгу «Эффект теломер: революционный подход к более молодой, здоровой и долгой жизни» – о том, как защитить свои теломеры, предотвратить их сокращение и даже обратить этот процесс вспять (оказывается, это тоже возможно). Если следовать советам Элизабет Блэкберн и Элиссы Эпель, состояние своих теломер – и всего организма – можно существенно улучшить. В советах нет ничего сложного или необычного – они касаются здорового образа жизни, психогигиены и здорового окружения. И все же, несмотря на простоту, эти советы действительно работают – авторы книги уже получили результаты исследований, согласно которым хотя бы несколько рекомендаций из этой книги, воплощенных в жизнь, дают отличный эффект максимум за четыре месяца.
