Acerca de esta escucha
Mike Mentzer was a strikingly handsome man with a brilliant mind and a "perfect" physique—the first bodybuilder to receive a perfect score in both amateur and professional competitions. In the late '70s, Mentzer rose to the very top of his sport (despite the efforts made by industry power brokers, such as Arnold Schwarzenegger), was featured in GQ magazine, and profiled on national television. But he was also a man who wrestled with mental illness his entire life and ended up living on the streets and being sent to prison. Just when it seemed his career was over, he found it within himself to reboot his intellect and revolutionize bodybuilding training, arguing bodybuilders should not forsake their mental development in favor of developing their bodies. He became a pariah in the fitness industry (which only cared about selling supplements and other products) but a hero to legions of fans who earnestly sought truth.
Mike Mentzer: American Odysseus is the first biography of Mike Mentzer to appear in North America written by his close friend of twenty-one years, John Little, "one of the leading fitness researchers in North America" (Iron Man magazine). Drawing upon audio recordings, letters, diary excerpts, as well as interviews with those closest to him, this is the true story of one man who stood up to an entire industry—and paid the ultimate price.

Historia
FROM THE SHADOW is the story of a country boy who endured a series of tragic events, leaving him alone in a big city. The cruel hand of fate had one more blow: a young offenders' institution. There, in his darkest hour, it would be the bars he lifted, not those that bound him, which would finally change the trajectory of his life - forever. Dorian Yates' disarming honesty would lead to a reader of an early manuscript saying of FROM THE SHADOW, "I had to force myself to put it down."

What if we told you: "YOU COULD OWN A WORLD CLASS BODY—whatever your present condition—by doing only two exercises, for twenty minutes a day?" And we are talking about a world class body—a body so lean, ripped and powerful looking, you won't believe your own reflection when you catch yourself in the mirror. And what if we told you, "YOU CAN DO IT without a single supplement, without having to waste your time at a gym and with only a 150 bucks of simple equipment?" And what if we told you, "With only two exercises for twenty minutes a day, you'll not only be stronger than you've ever ...

Who needs philosophy? Ayn Rand's answer: Everyone. This collection of essays was the last work planned by Ayn Rand before her death in 1982. In it, she summarizes her view of philosophy and deals with a broad spectrum of topics. According to Ayn Rand, the choice we make is not whether to have a philosophy, but which one to have: a rational, conscious, and therefore practical one, or a contradictory, unidentified, and ultimately lethal one.
