THE JOYFUL ATHLETE: THE WISDOM OF THE HEART IN EXERCISE AND SPORTS TRAINING
Book ID/图书代码： 03486016B96173
English Summary/英文概要： How can athletes train for maximum performance and joy? The Joyful Athlete shares the findings of a veteran runner who worked as an editor at Runner’s World and has raced at distances from 100 yards to 100K (62.2 miles). After receiving a master’s degree from Stanford University, author George Beinhorn was paralyzed from the chest down for three years. No sooner had he recovered than a spiritual teacher urged him to start running―there would be no time for self-pity.
For the next 40 years, he researched ways to make training both scientific and personally rewarding. Studying the careers of hundreds of athletes, he found that the most successful shared two qualities. First, they were expansive―they had a positive outlook and exceptional energy. And they practiced "feeling-based training"―they had an uncanny ability to understand the signals their bodies were sending.
Athletes in our western culture have been obsessed with numbers. The assumption is that by analyzing our training rationally, we’ll be able to achieve more consistent results and get the most enjoyment.
In practice, this premise hasn’t worked out very well. Athletes from cultures where intuition is honored, notably elite runners from East Africa, continue to dominate. That’s because sports training isn’t about "running the numbers." It’s about working with the individual body that we must train with, and whose needs change continually.
The Joyful Athlete tells a riveting story of groundbreaking research that reveals why our bodies thrive when we cultivate expansive thoughts and feelings, and how scores of athletes at all levels have found success by "feeling-based training."
It’s an enjoyable reading experience that will inspire athletes in every sport. The Joyful Athlete answers the most basic question every athlete faces: "How can I be successful and enjoy my training too?"
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 运动员如何训练才能获得最大的成绩和快乐? 这位快乐的运动员分享了一位跑步者的发现，他是跑步者世界的编辑，跑的距离从100码到100K(62.2英里)。在斯坦福大学获得硕士学位后，乔治•拜因霍恩在三年内瘫痪了。他刚康复，一位精神导师敦促他开始跑步，他也就没有时间自怜了。
在接下来的40年里，他研究了如何使训练既科学又有个人价值的方法。在研究数百名运动员的职业生涯时，他发现，最成功的人有两种特质。首先，他们是扩张的——他们有积极的前景和非凡的精力。他们练习“基于感觉的训练”——他们有一种不可思议的能力去理解他们的身体发出的信号。
在我们的西方文化中，运动员对数字很着迷。我们的假设是，通过理性分析我们的训练，我们将能够获得更一致的结果，并获得最大的乐趣。
在实践中，这个前提并没有很好地解决。来自不同文化的运动员，特别是来自东非的精英运动员，继续占据主导地位。这是因为运动训练不是为了“运行数字”。“这与我们必须训练的个体身体有关，而且它的需求不断变化。”
这位快乐的运动员讲述了一项引人入胜的研究，揭示了为什么我们的身体会在培养广泛的想法和感觉时茁壮成长，以及各个级别的运动员如何通过“基于感觉的训练”获得成功。
这是一种令人愉快的阅读体验，能激励每一项运动的运动员。快乐的运动员回答了每个运动员面临的最基本的问题:“我怎样才能获得成功并享受我的训练?”(WYL）

About the Author/作者介绍： 乔治•拜因霍恩的文章和摄影作品出现在跑步时间、跑步者、马拉松和超越、体育运动和跑步者的世界中，1972-1976年他是一名编辑和摄影师。他住在硅谷，在那里作为一名作家和编辑，为客户提供技术和商业方面的服务，
当乔治在1968年开始跑步时，他有一种强烈的直觉，认为最好的训练伴随着积极的感觉。
作为运动员，我们都曾有过一段时间，我们的身体毫不费力地进行着，内心深处也有一种深深的幸福。不幸的是，那些日子似乎是随机发生的，有一种科学的方法可以让我们的训练和快乐的发生。
从精英运动员和教练的生活中，从表演科学中，乔治收集了一种简单实用的方法。
最好的训练发生在我们注意身体发出的信号的时候。当我们生病时，我们的身体通过让我们感觉糟糕来传达这个事实。当我们的身体好时，我们感觉很好。身体通过心灵的微妙感觉来宣告自己的需要。
这个简单的观察对训练有着巨大的影响。从体育的深层知识，从科学和世界伟大的精神传统中，快乐的运动员揭示了我们如何使我们的训练愉快，并取得了显著的改善。
George Beinhorn’s articles and photography have appeared in Running Times, Trail Runner, Marathon & Beyond, Sports Afield, and Runner’s World, where he was a staff editor and photographer from 1972–76. He lives in Silicon Valley, where he serves clients in technology and business as a writer and editor.
When George took up running in 1968, he had a powerful intuition that the best training is accompanied by positive feelings.
As athletes we’ve all had days when our body performed effortlessly and a deep happiness welled up inside. It’s unfortunate that those days seem to occur randomly—surely, there’s a scientific way to make the great training and enjoyment happen at will.
From the lives of elite athletes and coaches, and from the science of performance, George gleaned a simple, practical method.
The best training happens when we pay attention to the signals the body is sending us. When we’re ill, our bodies communicate the fact by making us feel lousy. And when our body is well, we feel great. The body announces its needs through the subtle feelings of the heart.
This simple observation has vast implications for training. From the deep lore of sports, and from science and the world’s great spiritual traditions, The Joyful Athlete reveals how we can make our training enjoyable and achieve measurably improved results.
