Nolan Ryan's Pitcher's Bible
Book (italiano):
<B>How does Nolan Ryan still do it?</B> <P> At 43 years old, Nolan Ryan is a marvel. He is still blowing his fastballs by hitters at an age when most pitchers have long since retired -- or have learned to depend on guile instead of power. But the Ryan express keeps chugging on, getting more unhittable, not less. <P> <I>Nolan Ryan's Pitcher's Bible</I> tells us the secrets of Ryan's success. Drawing on Ryan's practical experience and Tom House's research expertise, it shows how the right combination of exercise and motivation can help a pitcher develop to his greatest potential. <P> <B><I>Nolan Ryan's Pitcher's Bible</I> includes:</B> <P> * Nolan Ryan's complete fitness program for pitchers -- including weight training, aerobic exercise, and diet -- based on the latest scientific research and his 24 years of experience as a major leaguer.<P> * The most up-to-date methods for preventing arm injuries by establishing proper mechanics, a conditioning base, and throwing work loads.<P> * A timetable for keeping a pitcher in top shape year-round, including specific exercise intervals to meet the individual strength demands of each pitcher's throwing motion, maximum velocity, and maximum weekly number of pitches.<P> * An in-depth presentation of Ryan's pitching strategy -- how he prepares himself mentally for a game, an analysis of his pitch selection for different types of hitters, and how he applies his training regimen to improving his effectiveness on the mound. <P> Illustrated with black-and-white photos of Ryan in action, along with photos and line drawings of the recommended exercises, <I>Nolan Ryan's Pitcher's Bible</I> is the ultimate book on pitching, by the ultimate pitcher.
