Performance Nutrition for Team Sports
Author: Monique Ryan
Team sport athletes need to follow sound sports nutrition principles to optimize their body composition, recover daily after training, and consume the optimal fuel prior to training and competition. These athletes also have unique nutritional needs based on the type of training sessions specific to their sport. This guide, aimed at experienced athletes along with those of high school and college age, addresses those needs in three sections. Section one provides an overview of nutrition guidelines for good health and optimal exercise, training, and competition, including clear guidelines for choosing foods. Section two shows readers how to tailor nutrition to particular sports and performance goals. This section explains how to develop muscle and power, maintain a healthy level of body fat, and eat for endurance. Section three covers detailed nutrition guidelines specific to each sport with respect to training and competition.

Driving with Care: Education and Treatment of the Impaired Driving Offender: Strategies for Responsible Living and Change
Author: Kenneth W Wanberg
Driving With CARE (DWC) is a three-level education and treatment program for persons convicted of driving while impaired (DWI). Clients learn that change in behavior is made by changing their thoughts, attitudes and beliefs. They learn about their own patterns of drug use and abuse and how to make cognitive and behavioral changes so as to prevent recidivism into DWI behavior and prevent future involvement in a pattern of alcohol or other drug (AOD) use that can lead to AOD problems and to impaired driving behavior. Participants take an active part in exercises, work sheets and group discussion.
The Provider's Guide presents a comprehensive overview of cognitive behavioral treatment for impaired driving offenders; a thorough review theory and practice related to client evaluation; legal and cultural considerations; as well as operational procedures for assessing and matching DWI offenders to appropriate levels of education and treatment services. Guidelines are provided for developing individualized treatment plans, and implementing appropriate education and treatment curriculum protocol whereby clients relate and apply the lesson and session material to their own unique circumstances and situations. Clients learn self-control over thinking and actions, responsible behavior towards others and the community.
