Surf Fitness & Nutrition

Ha, all this exersizen

I haven't exersized in over two years.

That is, unless you count smokin and chewin and drinken exersizen.

I'm real big.

Since surgery, I can barely walk and I can barely breathe.

If someone pushed me, and I fell, I'd curl up into a ball.

Like Usual.

just as the stairs are the natural enemy of the the elderly, i highly recommend maintaining a safe distance from all potential excerizen equipment and or those who may try to lure you into physical activity.

remain alert at the watering hole friendo.

...don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.



A session w/the chiro this morning inspired me to show up for sprint work at lunch...

I've been swimming with the local team for the last couple of weeks. This was today's workout:

200 swim
200 scull/kick

8 x 150 [1-3 descend free @ 2:15, 4-6 descend: 1 length fly/back/breast x2 @ 2:30]

3 x 300 free @ 4:00 descend
3 x 200 IM @ 3:00 descend
5 x 100 stroke @ 1:45 [#5 all out]

100 choice

6 x 50 w/bands

100 choice

6 x 150 @ 2:15 w/paddles

12 x 25 @ :45 w/chutes build

25 from the blocks with chute

125 choice

25 from blocks w/o chute

200 warm-down

Yards: 5,800

It's less yards than yesterday b/c of the strength work at the end. Swimming with a chute was not so fun. It feels good to be working on getting back in shape.

[Dub Star]

Quit drinking for a little while

4-5 days in the pool

5+ days on the bike

Streching/yoga & crunches every morning

Diet consisiting of low carbs and whole foods

July was rough on the bod so it's time to get in shape for the season

[pickleweed]

It's kind of funny, I tried to wash my car the other day, and I had to stop halfway through because I was out of breathe

I did buy one of those Billy Banks Tae Bo aerobics DVD's however. It's aerobics that looks like self defense. They used to sell them on late night infomertials. I've been trying to do it but I have all these injuries lately, and chronicly I guess, lol.

I must be a weakling, LOL.

[budster]

it would seem that i have a chronic weakness as well....mostly the dog.

and hey, not to worry. your not alone in your state of battered-douchebaggery. it's looking like elbow and knee surgery for me this winter. sometimes the meager crowd in the peanut gallery of life boos ya off the stage.

meridian flexibility & strength training....

"The Genius of Flexibility" by Bob Cooley

Anyone have any experience with this? Own the book?

Would it be beneficial for someone (like myself) that already practices power vinyasa yoga? (strength, flexibility, breathing focus )

Scored a BodyBlade Pro. Odd sorta isometric/harmonic workout for rehab. Guy named Chek uses 'em to get pro surfers back in the line up.

I had the chance to run/scramble this peak in Phoenix....it was August and about 108 degrees when we started out. Got to the top in time for an amazing thunder and lightning show. Some crazy local was running down in a fully hooded sweatshirt and pants....it was unbelievable.

Have an operation on your head...
Take antibiotics that wrench your guts...
And makes you unable to drink lots of beer...
Presto!
Lose 15 pounds.

Doc

[Trula]

You got to eat some quality yogurt with live culture like Nancy's. It helps get your tummy back to normal after to much antibiotics.

[pra_ggresion]

There you go Doc. That'll make that tummy wummy achy feel better.

[montana]

Nancy's Yoghurt? As in Springfield Creamery? That's not just live culture, that's extra active counter culture, home. Eat too much of that and you could become a socialist.

Why the anti-biotics?

[birdman]

You got to eat some quality yogurt with live culture like Nancy's.

Better yet, forget the processed dairy and get yourself some mixed culture probiotic capsules at your local health food store. Essential during and after antibiotic therapy because antibiotics kill the good and the bad (and the ugly).

Most folks don't get enough good bacteria in their gut and would do well to supplement daily.
