To me, it was better than baseball, basketball or football, sports where you had teammates to help you out or take the blame when you lost. Fighting was a one-on-one sport, mano e mano, with no excuses. If you won, you took all the glory; you lost, you had no one to blame but yourself. It was sport at its purest, but as the years went on, I saw boxing get engulfed and diluted by politics, in-fighting, and greed. I started to get disillusioned by the sport I loved, and it wasn’t until I met some athletes competing in a sport called mixed martial arts that the love of combat sports came back for me like it did when I was growing up. In this sport, which combined the disciplines of boxing, wrestling, Muay Thai, kickboxing, and Jiu-Jitsu, I not only saw the future, but I saw the understated artistry that only true fight fans can appreciate. It’s something a lot of people can’t see, and I could never really put my finger on what it is, but when I saw Kevin Lynch’s photographs, I finally found something I could point to and say “that’s it. That’s what this sport is about.” So when we at the Ultimate Fighting Championship decided to move forward with the book project that became Octagon, there was no question who would be the photographer. And while Kevin’s talent is obvious, his understanding of this sport and its athletes was another key factor in our decision, because let’s face it – not everyone is willing to look past the misconceptions about mixed martial arts and give it the fair treatment it deserves. It’s been a long process to get to this point – for the UFC and for this book – but it was of the utmost importance to get it right, whether that meant unprecedented access to our events for Kevin, or having him capture our athletes at their most vulnerable, which was immediately before andafter their fights. In combat sports, or any sport for that matter, vulnerability can be seen as weakness; but one look at the pictures in this book will show that behind the bruises and cuts and the defeated or triumphant eyes, there is strength. It’s what these athletes are all about, and let me tell you, it takes a special person to step into that Octagon and fight another man – it’s why I call our guys real fighters, and why many of them are like family to me. Octagon captures everything that’s great about this sport, and it makes me a fan all over again. It also reminds me that even with all the traveling, business meetings, interviews, late hours, and time away from my family, I’m here because I love fights and the UFC, and I always will. - Dana White 』『 Octagon (Ultimate Fighting Championship) > 『 Octagon (Ultimate Fighting Championship) > 『 Fighter: The Fighters of the UFC > 『 Fighter: The Fighters of the UFC > 『 Got Fight?: The 50 Zen Principles of Hand-to-Face Combat > 『 Got Fight?: The 50 Zen Principles of Hand-to-Face Combat > 『 Total MMA: Inside Ultimate Fighting > 『 Total MMA: Inside Ultimate Fighting > 『 Blood in the Cage: Mixed Martial Arts, Pat Miletich, and the Furious Rise of the UFC > 『 Blood in the Cage: Mixed Martial Arts, Pat Miletich, and the Furious Rise of the UFC > I wanted to buy It↑ タイトル『 Explorers of the Infinite: The Secret Spiritual Lives of Extreme Athletes-and What They Reveal About Near-Death Experiences, Psychic Communication, and Touching the Beyond > 『 Explorers of the Infinite: The Secret Spiritual Lives of Extreme Athletes-and What They Reveal About Near-Death Experiences, Psychic Communication, and Touching the Beyond > 『 Where the Mountain Casts Its Shadow: The Dark Side of Extreme Adventure > 『 Where the Mountain Casts Its Shadow: The Dark Side of Extreme Adventure > 『 The Third Man Factor: Surviving the Impossible > 『 The Third Man Factor: Surviving the Impossible > 『 Forget Me Not: A Memoir > 『 Forget Me Not: A Memoir > 『 Black Wave: A Family's Adventure at Sea and the Disaster That Saved Them > 『 Black Wave: A Family's Adventure at Sea and the Disaster That Saved Them > 『 The White Mary: A Novel > Maria Coffey

Why do extreme athletes risk their lives doing these things? Read to find out, and find out as well all of their very unconventional Mystical experiences they often have while doing these crazy activities. I'll probably read this book at least once more again sometime in my life, if not twice. Definetely recommended to the adventurous soul prone to extreme ways.』 (Great Stories, but...) ![]() ![]() 『First of all, the stories in this book are incredible...riveting...fascinating. Really. This could have even been a great book if the author left it at that--stories that show the spiritual side of adventure sports... Instead, for each story the author tries to come up with a plausible explanation, and each time she turns to one of two places: Modern Science or Eastern Religion. The scientific explanations for the paranormal can be quickly dismissed--of course the spiritual world can't always be explained with logical, scientific responses. It's her attempt at spiritual explanations that are frustrating. She turns to Chinese mysticism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Transendentalism, the Occult, the New Age, even voodoo to find the answers. In fact, she tries to find her explanations in no less than TWENTY-SIX different spiritual and cultural movements, even Greek mythology. HEAVEN FORBID that she should consider God, Jesus or even Christian mysticism for any answers! After about the 20th explanation, where she's grasping for answers within the Inuit spiritual tradition or morphic fields for her answer, it gets ridiculous. You won't even find "Christianity" in the index, as if it were irrelevant to any major spriritual discussion. One chapter focuses on spiritual visitors that been documented to have helped explorers and adventurers throughout history and up through modern times. The author happens to mention that more than 1/3 of Americans report having seen angels at some point in their lives. Do you know how many millions that is? Yet could any of the "spiritual friends" she mentions have been angels? HEAVEN FORBID that she would even HINT in her writings that Christianity exists! It's ultimately sad to see how far out her way she goes to avoid it. So in the end we have a tragic indication of where Western culture has come--to the point where our own religious traditions can't even be mentioned in a wide-reaching book on spirituality. Read this book for the spiritual adventure stories if you must, but take the rest of it for what it is: A politically correct tome based on Eastern religion.』 (Fascinating portrait of extremes) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『I bought the Kindle version after hearing Coffey on Oprah's Soul Series. I read it more as a spiritual searcher than as an endurance athlete. The book was comprehensive in its exploration of what drives people to put themselves in the path of great suffering (made me think of the monks who built monasteries on chunks of rock off the coast of Ireland)... why? While the book is full of ghosts and other psychic phenomena, Coffey is even-handed in exploring these. She approaches mysteries with a true spirit of inquiry. Also, I couldn't put it down. In this snowy season, it did change my attitude about facing the cold as a mini-adventure.』 (What is Man's Connection to the Great Outdoors?) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『I found this to be an interesting and thought provoking examination of why many extreme athletes do what they do and what their minds?/spirits? do when the are doing what they do. However, it has application to those of us who are not extreme but can, just the same, be overwhelmed by the grandeur of nature. Through a lot of first person stories of odd "spiritual" experiences and a good mix of possible "scientific" explanations, including her own, the author probes what we perceive at times of heightened awareness. I found it a fascinating read. Sources are cited if you want to go look them up and a good index is provided, essential if you want to use this for some reference. There is some repetition that could have been handled better by a brief explaining that a return to that person's story was coming up. If you hike, ski, snowboard, climb, swim, surf, fly, jump, sail, bike, or rum it will have some great stories for you. 』 (good read) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『This is an insightful book for those non-adrenaline-seeking types, and an affirmation of what us junkies already know about pushing the limits. Easy to read in sections as it isn't one long story but interesting chapters that nicely segueway from one ot the next.』 『Real-life psychic, near-death, and paranormal experiences are combined with cutting-edge science and vivid adventure stories in this energetic look at why extreme athletes and mountaineers take the risks that allow them to push the limits of consciousness, and what they encounter there. In the life-or-death world of extreme adventure sports, there is one thing that athletes often keep quiet about: the“forbidden” territory of paranormal experiences. Ranging from fleeting moments of transcendence to full-blown encounters with ghosts and everything in between—visions, near-death experiences, psychic communication—many extreme athletes have experienced these moments of connection with the beyond, but have been reluctant to talk about them. InExplorers of the Infinite, award-winning outdoors journalist and lifelong adventure sports devotee Maria Coffey probes the mystical and paranormal experiences of mountaineers, snowboarders, surfers, and more. She reviews cutting-edge science, and consults the history of philosophy and spirituality to answer the question: Could the state of intense“aliveness” that is the allure of extreme sports for so many actually be a route to a connection with the beyond? Coffey investigates the scientific explanations for mystical phenomena, ranging from simple explanations to theories from consciousness studies and quantum physics, and leaves us wondering where science ends and spirituality begins. An energetic, you-are-there look at the spiritual lives of extreme athletes,Explorers of the Infiniteasks why extreme athletes take the risks that allow them to push the limits of consciousness, what they encounter there, and what we can learn from them.』 『 Explorers of the Infinite: The Secret Spiritual Lives of Extreme Athletes-and What They Reveal About Near-Death Experiences, Psychic Communication, and Touching the Beyond > 『 Explorers of the Infinite: The Secret Spiritual Lives of Extreme Athletes-and What They Reveal About Near-Death Experiences, Psychic Communication, and Touching the Beyond > 『 Where the Mountain Casts Its Shadow: The Dark Side of Extreme Adventure > 『 Where the Mountain Casts Its Shadow: The Dark Side of Extreme Adventure > 『 The Third Man Factor: Surviving the Impossible > 『 The Third Man Factor: Surviving the Impossible > 『 Forget Me Not: A Memoir > 『 Forget Me Not: A Memoir > 『 Black Wave: A Family's Adventure at Sea and the Disaster That Saved Them > 『 Black Wave: A Family's Adventure at Sea and the Disaster That Saved Them > I wanted to buy It↑ タイトル『 The Parkour and Freerunning Handbook > 『 The Parkour and Freerunning Handbook > 『 Free Running: The Urban Landscape is Your Playground > 『 Free Running: The Urban Landscape is Your Playground > 『 Parkour (Crabtree Contact) > 『 Parkour (Crabtree Contact) > 『 American Parkour Presents: Parkour Tutorial Volume 1 > 『 American Parkour Presents: Parkour Tutorial Volume 1 > 『 Freerunning: Find Your Way > 『 Freerunning: Find Your Way > 『 District B13 > Dan Edwardes,Parkour Generations

Worth reading.』 (Next level) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『This is a must have for any surfer who wants to improve their technique, and elevate their performance--as well as improve their understanding of the ocean from a surfer's perspective. My only criticism is that it includes beginner advice, which may have been smart in terms of marketing, but it gets in the way of it being a special addition to a solid surfer's library.』 (The ultimate surfing book) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『Excellent reading and photographs, all manoeuvers carefuly explained by the pros, and Jim Kempton has indeed put a lot of effort to bring out a bit of his knowledge to elicit this manual as top referencing for surfing studies. Besides, great customer service from Wavefinder's web site.』 (This Manual Breaks the Mold) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『You know what would be really awesome: if you could sit down in one room - picture a classroom on a dune in front of Pipeline or something - with all of the best surfers in the world and ask them, one-by-one, every question that you'd be embarrassed to ask if you met them face-to-face. Like, I don't know, "Hey Taj - how do you approach a wave at the right angle for a good air?" "And Parko, can you add some pointers on style once I'm up there?" "Or how `bout you Andy - dude, can you stop whispering to your neighbor while others are talking? - yea you: Can you explain why you drag your butt in the wave when you're backside tube riding?" Unfortunately that would never happen. (Even if you accomplished the impossible task of getting them in the same room, Flea and Skindog would probably throw stink bombs and run out the back.) But if it did, it would be something like having Jim Kempton's new book, Surfing The Manual: Advanced. I used to think buying any kind of surfing how-to book, unless it included a map to new breaks, would be a waste time and money. But WaveFinder has broken the mold with this one. They've gotten just about every top pro to pitch-in information on what each one of them does best. From Ken Bradshaw explaining why most surfers botch their duck dives (they use their knees or shins instead of their back foot) to Dave Rastovich discussing the nuances of fins-free reentries (it's all timing apparently), this book is like a bible for everything about surfing that you thought was impossible to explain. I highly recommend it for every surfer.』 (Great book to improve your surfing-intermediates&up) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『I've been surfing consistently for over 20 years.I got this book because I felt my surfing, though good enough, has stagnated somewhat and I needed some inspiration. What a well put-together book! The title says advanced but I recommend it from intermediate surfers up. If you can stand and do a few turns this book will start you off with a solid base for bottom turns, off the tops etc. Even after so long surfing I found some flaws in my own techniques regarding these fundamental manoeuvers. If you are refining your tube riding or starting to pop airs etc there's some good tips and there are other sections on fitness, big waves, equipment, tow surfing and so on. It's stacked with beautiful pictures of waves being ripped by top surfers to illustrate technical points but this would lead to my only criticism. The pictures make it a nice coffee table book but slightly heavy (though still possible)to travel with. Would be nice if it included a paperback text only manual of techniques to take on the road. Other than that, excellent.』 『The definitive guide to surfing from the world's leading extreme sports publishers, Wavefinder.

I was happy I did. This book touches on many of the forms fighting takes, some of which I was interested in and others, I found compelling by virtue of Mr. Robinson's prose. Unique and unflinchingly honest, his writing is coupled with the humility of one who's faced -and lost- to many of the luminaries, legends and reprobates of the fight world. Think of the internal monologue of Tyler Durden from "Fight Club" if he fought Roy Jones Jr. instead of Jared Leto. Now make him NOT gay, and you pretty much got this book. I'm confident that if Mr. Robinson wrote about dog shows, he'd find the madness within the reason that people engage in those things too -and I'd find it just as much fun to read- but given this book is about our most basic alpha-male communication tool, I feel there are few writers today that can lend his insight.』 (Fight, is a must-have!) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 『This book is a must-have for anyone who is a fan of the pugilistic arts, whether it's on the streets, or in a ring or cage. Eugene Robinson manages to cover every aspect of fighting and educates the reader, while at the same time, makes you laugh at his own agonizing experiences. I'm an avid MMA fan and have trained for years, and I even learned some new things from this book. I recommend it, highly!』 『 Crushing your enemies, driving them before you, and hearing the lamentations of their women? It doesn't get any better than this."–Eugene Robinson, ripping off John Milius That's the sentiment that surges just below the surface of Eugene Robinson's Fight– an engrossing, intimate look into the all–absorbing world of fighting. Robinson – a former body–builder, one–time bouncer, and lifelong fight connoisseur – takes readers on a no–holds–barred plunge into what fighting is all about, and what fighters live for. If George Plimpton hadmuscles and had been choked out one too many times––this is the book he could have written. When Robinson and his fellow fighters mix it up, they live completely for the moment: absorbed in the feel of muscles slippery with sweat; the metallic tang of blood mingling with saliva in the mouth; the sweet, firm thud of taped knuckles impacting flesh. They fight because it feels good. They fight because they want to win. And even if they get their asses kicked, they fight because they love fighting. Fight is part encyclopedia, part panegyric to fighting in all its forms and glory. Robinson's narrative– told in his trademark tough–guy, stream–of–consciousness noir voice – punctuates this explanatory compendium of the fighting world. From wrestling, jiu–jitsu, boxing and muay thai to bar fighting, hand–to–hand combat, prison fighting and hockey fights, from the greatest movie fightscenes to how to throw the perfect left hook, Fight is a scene–by–scene tour of the bloody but beautiful underworld that is the art of fighting. With his aficionado's enthusiasm and fast–paced, addictive voice, Robinson's Fight combines compelling text with beautiful photographs to create an illustrated book as edgy and interesting as it is gorgeous. 』『 Fight: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ass-Kicking but Were Afraid You'd Get Your Ass Kicked for Asking > 『 Fight: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ass-Kicking but Were Afraid You'd Get Your Ass Kicked for Asking > 『 A Los Angeles Bouncer's Guide to Practical Fighting > 『 A Los Angeles Bouncer's Guide to Practical Fighting > 『 A Fighter's Heart: One Man's Journey Through the World of Fighting > 『 A Fighter's Heart: One Man's Journey Through the World of Fighting > 『 Meditations on Violence: A Comparison of Martial Arts Training&Real World Violence > 『 Meditations on Violence: A Comparison of Martial Arts Training&Real World Violence > 『 The Little Black Book of Violence: What Every Young Man Needs to Know About Fighting > 『 The Little Black Book of Violence: What Every Young Man Needs to Know About Fighting > I wanted to buy It↑ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
