Exploding the Low-Fat-Diet Myth Question: After years of trying to enjoy all those unappetizing low-fat foods that were supposed to be our salvation, why are we men fatter than ever before? For that matter, after decades of joint-pounding aerobic exercise, why do so many of us look so sloppy and out of shape? The authors of this book wondered too. They set out to explore all of the so-called truths about weight loss and fitness, seeking to understand how those conventional wisdoms applied to men specifically. They resolved to base their findings on only the most accurate, up-to-the-minute research. You are holding the result of that effort. This remarkable, groundbreaking book debunks perceived truths about good health, scientifically showing how men have been shortchanged by fitness programs that fail to consider their unique needs. Until recently, the weight-loss and muscle-building roles of hormones in general and testosterone in particular have been largely overlooked; testosterone has actually been stigmatized. Not so here. This book celebrates "T" and explains why you should too. The natural benefits of testosterone are explored more fully than ever before. In The Testosterone Advantage Plan (tm): You'll understand why the food-pyramid concept, though well-intentioned, is riddled with so many errors and inconsistencies that it's functionally worthless as a tool for guiding a man's dietary choices. We'll offer in its place something we call the Men's Health --a healthy way of eating that will support your efforts to lose fat and build muscle. You'll discover which foods enhance testosterone and which foods inhibit it, thus gaining an unprecedented degree of control over the hormone that governs your very being as a man. You'll find it's no accident that you crave higher-fat foods: They are nothing less than the foods nature intended for your body to have. You'll learn how to achieve metabolic weight control so that your body will continue to lean itself out even while you sleep. No, this is not another one of those snake-oil claims you see on infomercials at 2:00 a.m. This is the real deal. You'll be exposed to new ways of exercising. Do you have any idea how many guys go about weight training in a way that almost guarantees they'll get little or nothing out of it? We'll walk you through the do's and don'ts. We'll also show you how strength training can give you the benefits once identified solely with aerobics. Finally, you'll meet the men who participated in a landmark pilot program developed from all this new research. You'll see their physical transformations--and hear how the program has also changed their lives. The Testosterone Advantage Plan (tm) is a must-read for every guy who wants to get the most out of his maleness. Put it to work for you.

Want to get more out of your workout and spend less time in the gym? Many guys devote so many hours to lifting weight yet end up with so little to show for it. In many cases the problem is simple: they aren't doing exercises based on the movements their bodies were designed to do. Six basic movements - the squat, deadlift, lunge, push, pull and twist - use all of the body's major muscles. And, more important, they use those muscles in co-ordinated action, the way they were designed to work. "The New Rules of Lifting", now in paperback and with more than one hundred photographs, gives you more than a year's worth of workouts based on these six basic movements. Whether you're a beginner, an experienced lifter looking for new challenges, or anything in between, you can mix and match the workouts to help you get bigger, stronger and leaner. In addition, the comprehensive nutritional information provided makes "The New Rules of Lifting" a complete guide to reaching all your goals. If you aren't using The New Rules of Lifting, you aren't getting the best possible results.

This is a customizable - and realistic-fitness program specifically created for midlifers who want to lose weight, revitalize energy, and build habits for increased longevity. Today's exercising adults are caught in a bind: those who take it seriously and work out aggressively end up with chronic aches and pains in midlife because they don't know how to adjust their programs as they get older. And those who take it easy end up with overfed, underdeveloped bodies that don't respond well when they decide to get serious about exercise. Lou Schuler and Alwyn Cosgrove, fitness experts and authors of "The New Rules of Lifting Series" know all too well that these readers need a program of their own. That's because they are these readers. Schuler started working out in his early teens. After forty years, he realized he couldn't do the programs in his own books without lots of modifications. And Cosgrove, a former European champion in tae kwon do, is a two - time survivor of stage IV cancer who found himself with limited endurance and a body that stubbornly refused to add muscle or shed fat.So the authors set out to create a new template for exercise, one that delivers serious results but is also flexible enough to accommodate individual limitations. "The New Rules of Lifting for Life" offers a six-month plan that balances total - body strength, endurance, mobility, balance, coordination, and athleticism. The workouts are challenging and, in conjunction with the suggested diet modifications, will help readers change the way their bodies look, feel, and perform. And not just temporarily - "The New Rules of Lifting for Life" allows you to enjoy productive and pain-free workouts for many years to come.

Glöm den romantiska bilden av den lungsjuka, olyckliga fröken Södergran som isolerad i det fjärran Karelen knåpade på sina dikter, under påverkan av manliga auktoriteter: den svekfulle älskaren, Nietzsche eller Kristus. Istället lyfter Ediths jag fram den Edith Södergran som givit 1900-talets kvinna ett nytt språk. Ebba Witt-Brattström finner hennes rötter i den livaktiga miljön i skolårens Petersburg, där också den politiska kampen mot tsaren men inslag av messianism och terrorism är viktig. Ediths jag placerar Södergrans debut på tiotalets livaktiga kvinnolitterära scen i Europa med namn som Lou Salomé, Ellen Key, Zinaida Hippius, Else Lasker-Scüler och Anna Achmatova. Edith Södergrans högstämda period tolkas som ett försök att vara Nietzsche - som kvinna. I västerländsk kultur är "den sköna kvinnans död" ett älskat motiv. Ediths jag visar hur Södergran använder sig av det för att skapa det starka "jag" som utmärker hennes diktning.

Ane Sjøbu har oversatt boka til norsk.

REVISED EDITION WITH FIVE THOUSAND WORDS BONUS MATERIAL AND NEW PHOTOGRAPHS M Train begins in the tiny Greenwich Village cafe where Smith goes every morning for black coffee, ruminates on the world as it is and the world as it was, and writes in her notebook. Through prose that shifts fluidly between dreams and reality, past and present, and across a landscape of creative aspirations and inspirations, we travel to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul in Mexico; to a meeting of an Arctic explorer's society in Berlin; to a ramshackle seaside bungalow in New York's Far Rockaway that Smith acquires just before Hurricane Sandy hits; and to the graves of Genet, Plath, Rimbaud and Mishima. Woven throughout are reflections on the writer's craft and on artistic creation.

Braiding despair with hope and consolation, illustrated with her signature Polaroids, M Train is a meditation on travel, detective shows, literature and coffee. It is a powerful, deeply moving book by one of the most remarkable artists at work today.
