This report was created for global strategic planners who cannot be content with traditional methods of segmenting world markets. With the advent of a borderless world, cities become a more important criteria in prioritizing markets, as opposed to regions, continents, or countries. This report covers the top 2000 cities in over 200 countries. It does so by reporting the estimated market size (in terms of latent demand)) for each major city of the world. It then ranks these cities and reports them in terms of their size as a percent of the country where they are located, their geographic region (e.g. Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East, North America, Latin America), and the total world market. In performing various economic analyses for its clients, I have been occasionally asked to investigate the market potential for various products and services across cities. The purpose of the studies is to understand the density of demand within a country and the extent to which a city might be used as a point of distribution within its region. From an economic perspective, however, a city does not represent a population within rigid geographical boundaries. To an economist or strategic planner, a city represents an area of dominant influence over markets in adjacent areas. This influence varies from one industry to another, but also from one period of time to another. In what follows, I summarize the economic potential for the world`s major cities for ""sports and fitness clothing"" for the year 2009. The goal of this report is to report my findings on the real economic potential, or what an economist calls the latent demand, represented by a city when defined as an area of dominant influence. Thereader needs to realize that latent demand may or may not represent real sales.

Recent surveys indicate that 10 per cent of children starting primary school are now regarded as alarmingly overweight, increasing to 15 per cent among school leavers. Doctors fear that this could lead to three out of four Britons being labelled obese within the next 15 years. This volume looks at the increasingly low levels of physical activity in our daily lives in the UK. There is also a chapter on the benefits of exercise. The information presented here comes from a wide variety of sources and includes government reports and statistics, newspaper reports, features, magazine articles and surveys, literature from lobby groups and charitable organizations.

This book carves out a unique niche in the field of fitness publishing. No other book in this genre addresses more thoroughly the psychological factors of motivating clients and the how-to aspects of starting up and promoting a personal training business. No longer are personal trainers to be seen as glorified spotters just biding their time until the next career move. They are qualified health professionals who design and monitor the exercise programs that improve peoples` lives and health. The goal of this book is to promote a more reverent view of personal trainers.

Die durchgef hrte empirische Untersuchung mit dem Thema `Vergleich der Auswirkungen eines Krafttrainings mit niedrigem gegen ber hohem Volumen auf die Muskelhypertrophie und Maximalkraft bei fortgeschrittenen m nnlichen Fitness-Sportlern``-Sportlern`` hat ihren Ausgangspunkt in der Diskussion um das optimale Trainingsvolumen im Krafttraining (vgl. Leistungssport 3/98, 1/99, 3/99 und 4/99).

Im ersten Teil der Arbeit werden die grundlegenden Positionen der oben angesprochenen Diskussion in einem neu differenzierten Systematisierungsmodell des Begriffes `Einsatz-Training` eingeordnet. Basierend auf diesem Systematisierungsmodell wird im zweiten Teil eine empirische Studie an sechs berdurchschnittlich trainierten m nnlichen Fitness-Sportlern dargestellt, die jeweils ber einen Zeitraum von sieben Wochen zuerst ein Muskelaufbautraining mit niedrigem und anschlie end mit hohem Volumen absolvierten.

Intention war es, einen m glichen Zusammenhang zwischen der Ver nderung des Trainingsvolumens und den daraus resultierenden Ver nderungen der Maximalkraft und Muskelhypertrophie sowie der K rperzusammensetzung f r die einzelnen Probanden als auch die Gesamtgruppe festzustellen. Die traditionellen Krafttrainingsparametersparameter Satzzahl, Wiederholungszahl und Last zeigten sich f r den Vergleich und die Auswertung beider Trainingsformen als nicht geeignet. Als wesentlich besser erwies es sich, das Trainingsvolumen anhand einer physiologisch orientierten Anspannungszeit zu messen und zu steuern.

Die Untersuchungsergebnisse zeigen keine signifikanten Unterschiede bez glich der K rperzusammensetzung und der Maximalkraftwerte zwischen den beiden Trainingsformen. Es ist jedoch ein hoch signifikanter Zeitvorteil f r das geringvolumige Training zu erkennen.

Diese Beobachtungen stellen trotz der kleinen Stichprobe bisherige Trainingsempfehlungen des sogenannten Mehrsatz-Trainings in Frage. Die Bef rchtungen, ein geringvolumiges Krafttraining stelle f r hochtrainierte Sportler einen zu geringen Trainingsreiz dar, kann aufgrund der im Training erfassten Daten und der Testergebnisse nicht aufrechterhalten werden.

Pregnancy is not a time to let yourself go - and, with "The 30 Minute Pregnancy Workout Book", the nine months before a baby is born may even be a time to get stronger and fitter. When Anna Aberg was pregnant with her first child, Elli, she wanted an exercise that increased her fitness while safeguarding her pregnancy.. Stretching yoga and light aerobics were not enough for this high-performance model and fitness trainer. Adberg developed a daily regimen of light (2-10 pound) weight training that she could do in 30-45 minutes at home, in the gym, or on the road. Divided into three `sets` for each trimester of pregnancy, Adberg`s program will tone any mother and will keep truly active exercisers in peak condition throughout their pregnancies. The program focuses on abs, arms, thighs, butts and shoulders and promises: increased strength; enhanced endurance for the marathon that is pregnancy; to keep body fat low and healthy; and, more flexibility.
