ATTENTION POWERLIFTER ENTHUSIASTS: If you want to start powerlifting, but don't know where to start, this is the book for you When you buy this book you'll learn. - The problem with most programs- The solution to get the biggest bang for your buck- An introduction to the three main lifts: Squat, Bench, and Deadlift- The critical benefits of Powerlifting Below is an excerpt: For many people, training is hard. Maybe you've never set foot in a gym before. Maybe you work a nine to five job. Or maybe you're a parent. Or maybe you're a college student. The point is, you probably don't have a lot of free time to fit in a workout. Without knowing how to best use their time, many people end up using exercise protocols that provide little to no results. They want to get stronger and fitter, but they spend the majority of their time on cardio machines or doing exercises for muscles in isolation, rather than compound movements--which could help your overall issues such as posture and strength. After a few weeks of no progress, they wind up feeling worse than they did when they started. As a result they lose motivation and end up quitting. Don't fall into the same cycle.The fact is, if you're a beginner you do not need fancy movements or workouts that take up hours of your time. What you need is to focus on the basics and master them. You can get extremely strong by just doing this. The three most effective movements for building strength, building muscle, and optimizing health are the bench, squat, and deadlift. These primary movements are the foundation of any good program, as well as the focus of the sport of powerlifting. Powerlifting focuses upon the increase of strength in the body but also in the mind. In this book you'll learn to: -Improve your posture-Get stronger -Move better-Feel better-Build muscle-Lose fat-Develop better habits-Increase focus-Boost confidenceBut don't take our word for it.

THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO ODYSSEUS ATTENTION READERS: If you're searching for a book to explain the most important aspects of Odysseus' journey AND THE MEANING BEHIND IT, this is the book for you BUT FIRST A WARNING...This book is PACKED with page-turning information. So if you love Greek myths, you may not be able to put it down.When you buy this book, you'll learn the following: - Definition and history of the Monomyth- The three-act structure of the Hero's Journey- The key plot points of the Iliad and Odyssey- What makes a hero- Odysseus' character arc- The overarching themes of the myth- The classic stages of Odysseus journey and their meaning....AND SO MUCH MORE Below is just a taste of what you'll learn when you buy this book: This book covers Odysseus' journey through the lens of the Monomyth. By analyzing the Iliad and the Odyssey Josh Coker identifies each classic stages of the Hero's Journey.What is the Monomyth?The term "Monomyth" comes from the Greek. It is broken into two root words: 1) mono, meaning "one", and 2) mythos, meaning "story." The connotation being, the "One Story." This term was coined by author James Joyce in his most famous work, Ulysses (the Roman name for Odysseus). However, it wasn't popularized until the late 1940's when a comparative mythologist by the name of Joseph Campbell, published his seminal work, The Hero With A Thousand Faces. In his book, Campbell suggested that there are common aspects that nearly all myths throughout time have shared. These elements combine into a narrative format that can be used as an approach to mythology. Many people associate the "Hero's Journey" as synonymous with The Monomyth. Both, historical and modern storytellers have used it as an approach to analyze narratives and develop new plots and characters for contemporary audiences. According to Campbell, the Monomyth follows a three-act structure. In the first act, The Separation, a hero is called to adventure and leaves his known world for the unknown world, guided by a mentor. Once the hero crosses the threshold of adventure, they enter the second act, The Initiation. In this section, the hero faces many tests and trials, confronts his inner demons (many times represented as ghosts, monsters, minotaurs, or dragons), then goes on through stages of enlightenment. Once the hero retrieves the boon, he must return it to the normal world from which he came. This third act is called the Return. During this final section of the narrative, the hero must release the power of the boon into society in order to restore it. Many times this last act requires the hero to overcome his major flaw and make a sacrifice. Once restored, the hero and those citizens in the world are free once again to live in it. The story of Odysseus follows this format very close. Particularly, if we combine the events from the Iliad and the Odyssey we obtain a full picture of Odysseus' journey of kingship. When you buy this book you'll learn the definition and history of the Monomyth; the three-act structure of the Hero's Journey; and the key plot points of the Iliad and Odyssey. Plus you'll find out what makes Odysseus a hero and how his character arc plays out in relation to overarching themes of the myth. Not to mention, we'll analyze the classic stages of Odysseus journey and their meaning. PLUS SO MUCH MORE This book makes a great companion guide for anyone wishing to learn the about the Hero's Journey or Odysseus' adventures.But don't take our word for it.

Some speakers give great speeches that energize the crowd and leave a memory that will last a lifetime. While others fumble through notes and put the audience to sleep. Worst of all is when a speaker fails so epically, that they leave people feeling awkward or uncomfortable. Intentional or not, this can have a long-lasting effect that can ruin the day. Whether it's malfunctioning microphones, lost note cards, or lack of preparation, there are a million things that can go wrong during a maid of honor speech. The purpose of this book is to help you navigate through the common pitfalls most maids make and prepare you to give a KILLER maid of honor speech. In this book, I'll teach you how to prepare, brainstorm, outline, rehearse, and execute your speech. We'll discuss all of the duties of a maid of honor so you're completely prepared for the day of the wedding. This will include coordinating with the bride and groom, dress and appearance, interacting with friends and family, recording the speech, alcohol consumption and so much more. Additionally, you'll learn the most common issues that happen during a maid speech and how to overcome them. Moreover, I provide an example speech at the end of the book, that can be tweaked for your particular needs. Ultimately, this book will provide maids/maids of honor with the tools, tips, tricks--and most importantly the confidence--they'll need to give a killer speech. By the end of the event, you'll walk out feeling like a hero and knowing you gave it 110%. We're sure you're going to love this book and do great. But don't take our word for it.
