Stuart MacDonald 'I Want To Look Like That Guy - (Featuring Jeff Willet)'DVDRip | XviD | 29fps | 512 x 384 | Publisher: Boomerang Studios | July 2009 | English | Length: 1 Hours 23 Minutes | 950 MB  The movie 'I Want to Look Like That Guy" is an inspiring story that teaches a lot more than being successful at creating a great body. It demonstrates what it takes to be successful at ANYTHING you attempt to do in life. This is a must-see movie if you feel that you 'deserve' success and you just can't figure out why it eludes you. Although the movie does a great job of showing what it takes to look like that guy, don't waste the valuable life lessons it teaches only on that pursuit." At 42 years old and a 44 inch waist, film maker Stuart MacDonald takes on the challenge to look like that guy in the ad with the help of professional body builder Jeff Willet. Stuart shows in detail what it actually takes to look like the guy in the ad by living the part and entering a body building contest. Along the way he discovers fitness product claims and photos are biggest lies since the days when advertisers said smoking was good for you. It’s the greatest documented fitness debunking in history. ‘I Want To Look Like That Guy’ will make you laugh, be amazed and want to get in shape. Finally someone had the guts to give us all permission to relax about our body image. The goal of the 6 pack is over and it’s time lower the bar of expectation to what a healthy body should look like. Film Makers Thoughts on getting bodybuilding lean: Here's my 6 month transformation. The only time it's practical to look like that is if you plan on being in a bodybuilding contest or become a fitness model. Fitness models and bodybuilders lead a regimented lifestyle that revolves around food and gym time. Some may argue with my point but from Jeff’s perspective and my experience I can say with confidence this is the case for the majority of fitness models and bodybuilders. In the movie I got shredded, I looked amazing but felt weak and exhausted for the last 3 weeks before the competition. Mentally I was an emotional mess half the time. I wasn’t myself because due to the lack of carbs, stress and social isolation. The struggle came from balancing home life, work, training AND dieting. Getting yourself ripped can only happen unless everyone around you is on board to support your efforts. My question to the fitness industry: "How do you get away with selling an illusion?" Convincing young people that this shredded look is sexy and healthy is warping impressionable minds and frustrating those who want to lose weight. Advertisers are selling an extreme look that only comes from an extreme lifestyle and not what they are selling. People are dieing from anorexia, bulimia, steroid abuse, growth hormones, surgical procedures, starvation diets and supplement abuse all in the name of looking ripped like a bodybuilder. This has got to change. I hope this movie will show students, parents and regular folks who want to lose weight that the ideal image they are being sold isn't realistic. Carrying around a few extra pounds won’t kill you. Just stay active and eat healthy. Perhaps one day we'll go back to the old Charles Atlas look. |

VOA Special English 2001 to 2007 Audio+PDF | 1.8 GB The Roots of Special English On October 19, 1959, the Voice of America broadcast the first Special English program. It was an experiment. The goal was to communicate by radio in clear and simple English with people whose native language was not English. Special English programs quickly became some of the most popular on VOA. They still are. Special English continues to communicate with people who are not fluent in English. Over the years, its role has expanded. It helps people learn American English while they learn about American life and stay informed about world news and developments in science. It provides listeners with information they cannot find elsewhere. Three Elements Make Special English Unique It has a core vocabulary of 1500 words. Most are simple words that describe objects, actions or emotions. Some words are more difficult. They are used for reporting world events and describing discoveries in medicine and science. Special English writers use short, simple sentences that contain only one idea. They use active voice. They do not use idioms. Special English broadcasters read at a slower pace, about two-thirds the speed of standard English. This helps people learning English hear each word clearly. It also helps people who are fluent English speakers understand complex subjects. Special English Radio Broadcasts Special English broadcasts to different parts of the world several times a day, seven days a week. Each half-hour broadcast begins with: �The latest news from around the world �A different short feature every day about development, agriculture, health, education, economics, news events and American idioms. �15-minute in-depth features about life in the United States, news about science and space, American history, popular culture, influential Americans and short stories. |

Ana Forrest - The Pleasure of Strength (2009)DVDRip | DivX | 1.42 GB | 120 mins | English | 720x540 | 29.976fps | 128Kbps Genre: Yoga A sweaty and exciting Forrest Yoga class with Ana Forrest for the intermediate and athletic beginner yoga student. Set your intention for the day, on the mat and in the world, by cultivating pleasure, delight, and strength. Narrated and demonstrated by Ana Forrest, who excels at showing how yoga can be relevant and transformative, this DVD's class sequence features fundamental asanas prized for building strength. Contains pranayama, abdominal/core work, sun salutations, and challenging apex poses. Instructions are clear, precise, and direct which makes this DVD the one to come back to when looking for ways to establish a daily self-guided routine. Variations are always offered to bring the challenge level of a pose in line with the student's ability. Ana Forrest also consistently revists the idea that in order to maintain a quality that is personal and fresh, a healthy yoga practice must blend equal parts work and joy. DVD includes “The Pleasure of Strength” a complete workout (1 hour). In addition, there is a 30 min. version for those busy days when you have limited time for your practice. Special features Includes a delightful presentation with Ana Forrest and her husband in a partner yoga demonstration as well as instructions on Forrest Yoga Basic Moves. I did the full Pleasure of Strength "workout" last night. Wow! I discovered places inside me that I would never have suspected were there -- or maybe I should say my breath did. As other reviewers have mentioned, the focus is on "core strength." You really work your abs and back muscles. More importantly, Ana's instruction facilitates self-discovery. It gives new, embodied meaning to the words "strength" and "stretching." If you do the work, you'll know what I mean. If you don't, as it appears one reviewer didn't, you won't, especially if you pay attention to externals, such as the "look" (the eighties????) rather than the "feel." I should point out that I am recovering from cancer (prostate) and I consider this part of my healing process. I work at my own pace, do the poses that I am capable of, and listen to my body in the process. I also practice Russian martial art (Systema). Like Forrest Yoga, Systema focuses on breathing and slow movements for instructional purposes. The physical conditioning can be very demanding. You are taught "not to feel sorry for yourself" so that you can discover what you are truly capable of in your development as a human being. I showed a performance of Ana's to the group I train with and they were awed -- and these are people not easily impressed. Ana Forrest is a phenomenal teacher. |
