Once again, the old me wouldn‘t recognize the me posting about how much I enjoyed this book about elite athletes and how genes play a huge part in success in sports. It is truly my kids who have opened up this world to me—I used to hate sports. My sporty boys have ignited an interest in me and there‘s some fascinating stories in the sports world. This book covers various sports and the body types best suited for that particular activity. ⬇️

Chelsea.Poole Like long torsos are best for swimming, how does Kenya produce so many long distance runners?, and more. Pictured with a shot of Messi at a game we attended in April! 2h
ncsufoxes It‘s especially true in soccer, like that awareness, soccer IQ. It‘s really hard to teach. Messi has it, he can kick the ball & know that is where his teammate will be to keep the play moving down the field. Plus being a left footed soccer player, also gives players a tremendous advantage My son is left footed & has this great field awareness. Sadly after high school he was done, too much pressure .He‘s finally back to playing rec & having fun. 1h
Amiable @ncsufoxes My son is a lefty, and he had great success as a varsity wrestler in high school. Because the majority of people are right-handed, they don‘t expect a cross-face that comes at them from the left side! 😀 36m
Suet624 I adored watching all of my kids play soccer. I have no idea what genes they have that allowed all of them to play elite soccer but I was there for all of it. (edited) 29m

Repost for @StayCurious

Our June read has been selected (a really close vote again!) - this is the start of a fun series about hockey players. Warning, I have read this one before a few years back and I remember it being pretty spicy but also a lot of fun. And it‘s got a Canadian hockey player which is cool for us Canadians, eh? This one is also free on KU (at least where I am). Let me know if you want to join, we‘re starting June 11.

I‘m having this weird problem with Hoopla where it won‘t let me advance through the book with the scrubber bar at the bottom. I‘m already about 25% in with the audiobook and I just DLed the ebook version. But it won‘t let me catch up; every time I slide the circle to the right it just pops back to the beginning.

Anyone else having this issue?
#hoopla

TieDyeDude Weird. I don't do many ebooks on Hoopla. Can you open it on a different device and try advancing there? It should sync when you open the device you're trying to use 🤞 17h
AlaMich @TieDyeDude Yeah, it is weird. It does the same thing on my iPhone and my iPad. Maybe I‘ll just try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 16h

I decided I wanted to try a sports romance since I have been seeing them everywhere. It was heavy with the emotions. It was different. I rated the book a 3 out of 5 stars.
