Story
Heavy lifting is nothing new; early people often moved stones. Ancient warriors are among the best illustrations of why lifting weights is essential to developing muscle, apart from cavemen. Spears had to be carried by raising heavy shields and swords, and they were often thrown vast distances. This illustrates the potential benefits of lifting heavy weights while doing strength training. Greek fighters were renowned for having enormous shields and swords in their hands, which greatly increased their endurance.

This book chronicles the long and tortured history of the NCAA's attempt to maintain the myth of amateurism and the student-athlete, along with the attendant fiction that the players academic achievement is the top priority of Division-I athletic programs. It is an indictment of the current system, making the case that big-time college sports cannot continue its connection to universities without undermining the mission of higher education. It concludes with bold proposals to separate big-time college sports from the university, transforming them into on-campus business operations.

"If you're not strong enough to swim fast, you're probably not strong enough to swim 'pretty," said a young Esther Williams to theater impresario Billy Rose. Since the nineteenth century, tensions between beauty and strength, aesthetics and athleticism have both impeded and propelled the careers of female swimmers—none more so than synchronized swimmers, for whom Williams is often considered godmother. In this riveting history—the first of its kind—Vicki Valosik traces a century of aquatic performance, from vaudeville and dime museums to the Olympic arena.
