Free: Why Your Knee Caves In: Our Fundamental Knowledge Is Wrong

Why Your Knee Caves In: Our Fundamental Knowledge Is Wrong

Watch any sports game or step into any gym and you will see a knee-buckling in. This is surprising, as inward knee movement is seen as one of the holy grails of lower body physical therapy. In fact, it is directly connected to an Anterior Cruciate Ligament tear (ACL tear), the most extensively researched leg injury.

Medical practitioners refer to inward knee motion as knee valgus and hold the glutes accountable for not being able to keep the knee out. The link between valgus and weak glutes is not just a perception, it is an amendment. It is about as plain as the nose on your face, no questions asked.

And yet, it is entirely wrong…

This knee valgus bible gets rid of the fundamental misconceptions about knee valgus. Every physical therapist, physical therapy student, personal trainer, strength coach, fitness enthusiast or movement specialist should be familiar with the pioneering knowledge inside this book.

“Why Your Knee Caves In” will throw your entire understanding of inward knee movement upside down, in a highly digestible fashion with witty one-liners and fantastic visuals. Step by step, all the cards will be laid on the table and every detail will be meticulously explained.

A masterpiece for the ages. Free on Kindle.

Always Be My Forever

Always Be My Forever

I was eight years old when I fell in love with August Belmore. Eighteen the first time our lips touched.Thirty-three when I became the bastard that broke her heart.

The trail of my fingertips across her warm skin.Secret rendezvous in my truck.My name tumbling from her lips. Now, I’m only left with the haunting memories of what could have been.

Just one more touch, one more taste—but it was never enough. She wasn’t just a drug, she was an addiction that I didn’t want to get over.

We’ve done this flirting dance for years. But every time we crossed the line, I left no trace of ever being there. Trust me, it wasn’t the passion and desire we couldn’t get right, we nailed that down over and over again. It was everything in between, all the important stuff.

But somewhere between stolen kisses in parking lots and drunken confessions about the things we wanted to do to each other…I became consumed with the lie that she’d always be there. That this fantasy we’d built wouldn’t crumble. By the time I realize what’s been in front of me this entire time, it’s too late. Another man’s ring is on her finger. And I’m left waking up to my worst nightmare—that I’ve lost her forever. $0.99 on Kindle.

The King of Violins

The King of Violins

HOW CHINA’S MOST CELEBRATED VIOLIN PRODIGY BECAME AN ENEMY OF STATE.

The King of Violins is the heartbreaking story of China’s most celebrated violin prodigy, Ma Sicong, who composed his first concerto at the age of 12.

During his career, this gentle, dignified man composed 57 of the world’s best-known symphonies and concertos and performed in front of hundreds of sold-out audiences across the globe.

Chairman Mao Zedong declared Ma Sicong “a national treasure” and nicknamed him The King of Violins. Soon, Chairman Mao’s brutal Cultural Revolution distorted the truth of Ma’s life and work. He is forced to wear a dunce cap, and is publicly humiliated and physically abused by cadres of Red Guards as “a vile product of bourgeois thinking.”

Ma and his family make a breath-taking escape in the darkness to America. After Chairman Mao died in 1976, the real circumstances of Ma’s poignant, bittersweet life were buried in the pages of history by an embarrassed Chinese government. Eleven years later, Ma died at the age of 76 in Philadelphia.

The King of Violins, written in cooperation with all of Ma’s remaining family members, and is the first politically balanced life story about this generous, conflicted musical genius. $5.99 on Kindle.
