First: What It Takes To Win by professional fitness champion Rich Froning (Wikipedia) with David Thomas is his athletic training workout advice and personal motivation guide cum memoir with a touch of the inspirational, free courtesy of Christian publisher Tyndale's Momentum imprint.

There were a fair number of Gentle Readers in the reviews on this, who seemed to be fans, who mentioned that while there were quite a number of faith anecdotes they weren't interested in, they felt that Froning offered good training advice and interesting sports tales as well, so this may likely be of interest to more secular types as well who are looking for useful workout stuff.

Currently free @ B&N (also UK), Amazon UK (slated to drop in the main store), iTunes (available to Canadians), and also ChristianBook (DRM ePub available worldwide).
