Returning home was never on my bingo card. Neither was the bad break up I’m leaving behind. Most unexpected of all: Joseph Chatham. Ten years younger than me and my brother-in-law’s younger brother. He’s off limits and unbelievably sexy. Joey is stunning, and cocky, and he makes me feel things I’ve never experienced. Things I’ll never admit to. Because we can never happen. But he has plans for me, naughty plans, and he’s determined to make them happen. He doesn’t care about my arguments against getting together or all the reasons it’s wrong. So when he proposes we just keep our relationship a secret, just between us, a rebound fling seems like exactly what I need. That is, until I realize it might not be a rebound at all, and in small towns…? Well, nothing stays a secret for long.

Written by a leading mental skills coach and contributing editor to Runner's World (US), this is a practical guide to building the psychological resilience that athletes need to recover from injury and rebound stronger. Injuries affect every athlete, from the elite Olympian to the weekend racer. In the moment, a traumatic crash, a torn muscle, or a stress fracture can feel like the most devastating event possible. While some athletes are destroyed by the experience, others emerge from their recovery better, stronger, and more confident than ever. The key to a swifter, stronger comeback is the use of mental skills: psychological tools that enable an athlete to take control of their recovery and ultimately use the experience to their advantage. Injury and other setbacks are inevitable – but with training, overcoming them skillfully and confidently is possible. This book will provide a clear, compelling explanation of psychological recovery from injury and a practical guide to building mental resilience. Weaving together personal narratives from star athletes, scientific research, and the specialized clinical expertise of mental skills coach Carrie Jackson Cheadle, it will contain more than 45 Mental Skills and Drills that athletes can use at every phase of their recovery process. These same strategies can help athletes who aren't currently injured reduce their vulnerability to injury, and enable any individual to reach new heights within their sport and beyond.

Beginning with the day Jordan's father was murdered, and stretching through a two-year odyssey across the American landscape, Rebound is the story of the world's most famous athlete's personal journey in search of himself. Bestselling author Bob Greene was there with Jordan every step along the way. Here is his detailed, intimate chronicle, rich with the sound of Jordan's own voice in long and candid conversations with Greene. In minor-league dugouts and packed NBA arenas, alone with Jordan at home or riding down the highway with him, during the lowest days in the backroads world of small-town baseball and the headiest nights in ornate basketball stadiums where thousands cried his name, Rebound is the story of a man who seemingly had everything the world could offer, and then, in pain, left it behind in an effort to rediscover who he once was, and who he wanted to be.

Albert Carter is the pioneer of Rebound Exercise and the founder of Rebound AIR, Inc. He is currently the Lead Designer of the best built most innovative rebounders on the planet. Al attended Oklahoma State University on a full scholarship for wrestling. He completed his college work as a full scholarship wrestler at the University of Utah, qualifying twice for Olympic competition in wrestling. He was all-around gymnastic champion in Montana, Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas. In 1974 and 1975, his Gymnastic Fantastic professional trampoline team gave over 500 performances to more than half a million spectators. Recognizing that his extraordinary good health and superior strength were connected to his work on the trampoline, Carter set out to discover why the human body reacts so positively to rebounding. He developed the Dyna-Bound, a home-sized rebound exerciser and published his book, The Miracles of Rebound Exercise, in 1979. Rebounding was the springboard. The Healthy Cell Concept presented in The New Miracles of Rebound Exercise and The Cancer Answer is the result of over a decade of research on all the components necessary to perfect health. As a lecturer and educator, Carter has appeared on national television in the U.S., Australia, Hong Kong, and the Philippines. In 1983, by special invitation of the Hong Kong government, Carter was retained to teach the 35,000 members of the police and fire departments The Healthy Cell Concept and the benefits of rebounding. He has presented his concepts to numerous medical groups worldwide. Today, Carter is recognized as the world’s greatest authority on rebound exercise.
