Descent : My Epic Fall from Cycling Superstardom to Doping Dead End (9798200432929)



At age twenty, Thomas Dekker was already earning 100,000 a year--as an amateur bike racer. The next year, he turned pro and his salary quadrupled then rose again to 900,000 as he established his position as a super-domestique among Europe's wealthiest superteams. The sport world marveled at Dekker's rise as the young racer set his ambitions on capturing cycling's biggest prizes for himself. Before long, though, Dekker found himself corrupted by money, dazzled by fame, and cracking under the relentless pressure to perform at a superhuman level. In his tell-all book Descent: My Epic Fall from Cycling Superstardom to Doping Dead End, Dekker reveals a sordid way of life full of blood bags, drugs, prostitutes, and money. Descent tells the story of a years-long bender that exposes the brutal truth of his life as a professional cyclist. And Dekker is not alone; he names those who fell with him and those who aided in his downfall. In Descent, we take an unflinching look at the European peloton as it roars through its modern boom years--the height of the EPO era--and what we see is shocking. You won't be able to turn away from this compelling book about one man's rise, fall, and redemption and what his story reveals about professional sports.

Aprender a comer solo : manual sobre el método "Baby led weaning" (9788416002788)

Si hay algo que les preocupa a los padres es su alimentación de sus hijos. ¿Necesitan los bebés de 6 meses que un adulto les dé de comer a la boca? ¿Y comer los alimentos triturados? ¿Se les debe dar a comer a demanda?

Este enfoque puede tener potenciales beneficios para el bebé y está siendo objeto de numerosos estudios, entre otros objetivos, como herramienta que ayude en la prevención de la obesidad. Este sistema de alimentación, que ya es muy popular en países como Reino Unido, está ganando adeptos por todo el mundo. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los profesionale...
