Resonate: For Anyone Who Wants to Build an Audience
Nobody understands how Alex Wolf built a cult following of over half a million millennials for her first brand in less than a year. Nobody understands why she left it all to become a writer either. RESONATE is Wolf's informative and occasionally hilarious look at the intersection of human nature, technology, and how understanding both can help anyone creative build a following of their own. Named as one of the "Top 100 Most Creative People in Business" by Fast Company Magazine, Inc.'s "Top Creative Entrepreneurs In Marketing and Media," and Adweek's "Top 20 Influencers Who Radiate Creativity & Get Everyone Talking," there's no advice Alex Wolf gives that even the most powerful CEOs can resist taking into consideration.

Strength and Conditioning for Rowing
The field of strength and conditioning has grown exponentially over the last two decades, making both collaboration with others and recognition of the impact S&C coaches can have beyond the weight room more important than ever before. This book purposefully begins by sharing professional insights from both the individuals S&C coaches work with - the event coaches - and those individuals S&C coaches work for - the athletes - to examine how collaboration towards agreed, shared and understood performance goals works in practice. The latter chapters focus on applying S&C principles within rowing populations, which are easily transferred to any athlete. This includes: a 'performance backwards' approach to planning; exploring an adaptation approach to programming; common injuries across rowing populations; exercise selection, including specific trunk training assessment and programming; transfer of training to rowing performance, and finally, understanding the needs of Paralympic Rowers.
