Should You Jog In Extreme Humidity?

June 15th, 2010 No comments

I really love to exercise and one of my favorite ways to exercise is by jogging.  I used to jog on a treadmill in my basement but I just got sick of staring at the same wall hours and hours on end – week after week and so I eventually started jogging outside.

Of course, that created all sorts of different problems for me because I live in an area that has constant weather changes throughout the year. A lot of different people like having four seasons, but I’m not one of them because i

t interferes with my jogging!

One of the strangest times of the year to jog for me is summer which may seem a little counter intuitive. Summertime should be the best time to jog, you would think, but the summers where I live are incredibly humid.

Have you ever tried to jog when it’s really humid and incredibly sunny at the same time?

The air around you feels like a blanket. The humidity sucks the breath right out of your lungs making it difficult to breathe. The combination of heat and humid

ity also makes you sweat much more than you normally would, which brings up dehydration issues especially if you job for long distances of 4 to 5 miles or longer.

So that brings us to the question; should you jog in very humid weather?

Now I’m not a doctor and I can’t even begin to pretend to give out medical advice, so take this with a grain of salt, but I believe you should not jog when the weather is extremely humid.

I know people will disagree with me because I only have to look outside

and see all the people jogging around to realize that my opinion is probably not the popular one; but it seems to me that we jog to get healthy and whenever I run in humid weather, I always feel worse after I’ve jogged, which is the exact opposite that I usually feel.

If you are going to jog in humid weather I suggest you take several precautions.

First, drink lots of liquids before you jog and during your run, especially if you’re going to be jogging more than 5 miles.

Second, try to jog in the early morning or late afternoon when the sun is down so that at least you don’t have that added heat burning on your back.

Third, try to jog in populated areas where there’s lots of other people such as a park. The reason why I suggest that is because some people get dehydrated and actually pass out and if this happens to you, you’ll want to be in a crowded area so that there are people around to call an ambulance or at least make sure you don’t get run over by a car while you’re passed out on the side of the road.

Jogging can be an incredibly fulfilling way to exercise and I hope you take advantage of it as much as you can but maybe, just maybe on those really humid days you should just go back down to the basement and pull out the old trusty treadmill. I think you’ll be glad that you did.

Six Month Marathon Training Programme

June 3rd, 2010 No comments

No matter whether you happen to be preparing to do a marathon for the first time, or trying to improve your performance, a marathon training programme is completely essential to your results. This particular page will look at some of the factors that are required when it comes to choosing which marathon training programme to consider. We will also reveal to you where exactly to obtain some of the World’s best marathon training programmes and identify their strengths and weaknesses.

T

six month marathon training programme

six month marathon training programme

here are three crucial points you ought to check out when picking a marathon training programme. They are; eating routine or nutrition, jogging gear and equipment and of course the actual running and training regime itself. The actual regime you choose to follow will probably end up being dependent on your current knowledge of these matters. One bit of information I’d personally recommend at this point is to get hold of your marathon training programme well ahead the time when you want to begin

your training. The main explanation for this is that one of the big problems I find generally is that when a jogger grabs the training plan they usually tend to focus solely on the jogging regime, sometimes using the training right away, prior to analyzing the entire plan right through. As excited as you may very well be to launch your training, I highly recommend you to start by reading through the diet / nutrition sections to begin with and then the running accessories / equipment section sec

Title › Six Month Marathon Training Programme

ond. Performed this way, you can make certain that when you begin your training you will hit the ground running, literally, by making certain your entire body as well as your mindset are both physically willing and able for the workouts down the track.

The following aspect to look at is the particular training itself. Undoubtedly the more tailored the exercise plan the better it’ll be for you. Which often includes a healthy combination of strength training, cross training as well as stretching. There are a number of trainers and coaches whom give customized programmes. The fee associated with these services is usually in the 1000’s, which means that despite the fact that they’re great we are going to be concentrating on some of the very best more affordable options. Generally the most pressing aspect to take into account when looking for a programme is the time-frame. Ideally the lengthier the exercise regime the better because your chances of being injured will be reduced plus your foundation level of fitness will be much more established. Suffice to say, for the more advanced athletes this won’t be the case as you will most certainly be focussing on interval, split and sprint training. In the event that you are training for a specific marathon, which most people will be, you’ll want to be sure that you choose a routine which will fit into your time frame. The programmes endorsed on my website vary from eight weeks to six months. Most of these programmes have got plenty of scope for personalization and can demonstrate excatly the correct way to do it.

Quite a few of the additional points to take into account when deciding on any marathon training programme include; the support offered, the cost in addition to the credibleness of the source. Support is important because there are often speed bumps and dilemmas which present themselves during your running and getting the proper answers and information can often be all that stands between you and a potential exercise related injury or lack of motivation. Service could appear in the form of e-mail, phone or even an online chat room or community forum. Whilst not nearly as good as literally talking to someone in person, these types of customer support structures often contain a plethora of expertise and are generally within reach at any time. In terms of cost, all of the courses reviewed on my site are between $29-$97. This is certainly reasonably-priced for nearly everybody and well worth the while if you’re serious about running a marathon. Last but not least, when in search of a marathon training programme the knowledge, certification and past experience on the creator may also be a determining part in your choice. Needless to say some of the well accredited writers are the Olympic runners, fitness trainers and coaches. Yet, sometimes you may be able to connect better to an average joe. However you prefer to accomplish it, just make sure that you apply it. The means are out there, the

Run Walk Marathon Training

May 28th, 2010 No comments

Have you heard of walk run marathon training? Hopefully you have but if you haven’t then I suggest to you that you read right until then end of this article and see all of the great benefits that this type of marathon training provides. It will literally alter the way you train forever!

So what is walk run marathon training you ask? Essentially it is a way of preparing for marathons by performing many different sets of walk and runs. Pretty easy to understand hey!

The following is a r

13 min/mi—-1:1
14 min/mi—30 sec run/30 sec walk
15 min/mi—30 sec/45 sec
16 min/mi—30 sec/60 sec

The reason for taking walk breaks between running intervals is because after constant running certain muscle groups fatigue which could lead to injury, also it helps build other muscles during training. For exampl

Great Marathon Training Plan

May 20th, 2010 No comments

First off when it comes to marathon running and training you need to know a few things.

# 1 – A marathon is a 26.2 mile run. Notice that I said run! Yes, after reading this article and getting your marathon training plan you will be able to accomplish your dreams and run a full 26.2 mile marathon!

# 2 – You must be committed! Anyone can write their name down to run a marathon and lolli-gag their way through training. However they most likely won’t finish the race. But if you are di

sciplined enough to push your self through months of training then you most definitely will finish the race and in good time. As a side note I hope you noticed that I said you will be training for months. Months of training is what it takes to run a marathon.

I believe anyone can run a marathon if they follow a marathon training plan and start off their training with a certain base of strength and endurance. A good base test would be: Can you run a mile without stopping? If you can, then great

One question that many skeptics have of on-line marathon training plans is: How hard will this program push me? Many people are worried of over working themselves and some are even worried of not training hard enough and having to face the agony of failing on a marathon. Well I only have one answer to this. You will only work as hard as you push yourself it’s as simple as that.

Reebok Jogging Stroller

May 16th, 2010 No comments

Everyone with the slightest interest in sports knows the name Reebok. This stroller has a rear suspension system that provides a comfortable ride for your child while being easy to push over a variety of terrains. The 16″ wheels are suitable for grass, sand, and gravel as well as paved surfaces. If you are serious about your jogging you should insist on a stroller with at least 16″ wheels, 12″ is only good for smooth surfaces.

If your child feels like sleeping while you are jogging

the seat reclines all the way. The Reebok jogging stroller, however, could be used as a regular stroller for the first 6 months after your baby is born and then when she is ready you can start taking her with you on your jogs.

This jogger has a fleece-lined boot that keeps your child warm and protected from cold drafts. Other handy features are the cell phone pocket, the adjustable canopy, and the one-hand folding mechanism.

The Reebok stroller has been designed so that your child sits well back from the front wheel. This is safer than allowing the feet to come near the front wheel and distributes the weight more evenly for more stability.

We are quite impressed with this stroller. Care has to be taken when assembling that the front wheel is properly aligned otherwise it may pull to one side, but o

How To Make Yourself An Archery Bow

April 25th, 2010 No comments

Archery has become a great sport over the years, but it can be expensive. There is a way to have fun with archery without losing all your green. It is quite simple to make and use a bow, but these step-by-step instructions will help make it simpler.

Materials

First thing you need to make a good archery bow is a good stick. To find the best stick, look for one that is about three and a half to four feet long, about as wide as your thumb, quite springy, and with a little or no curve. A

lso, find one without any sticks or knots sticking out.

You will also need a sharp knife, a nylon cord that’s about two-three inches shorter than your stick, some yarn, or other type of string and some sandpaper.

Putting Them Together

To make your bow, the first step is to take the bark off your bow with your sharp knife. This will make it look better, and make it easier to work with. When that is done, let it sit overnight, or until dry.

Then, cut two slits in the top and bottom of the

bow to hold the bowstring. If you have trouble creating a wide enough slit to hold the string, shove a small sliver of wood in between them to hold it open.

When you have created the slits, sand the bow if you wish. If not, continue on to the next step.

Now you can create your handle. Grab your bow in the middle, or where the weight feels right. If the top seems too heavy, hold it lower, and vice versa.

When you have found your balanced spot, wrap your yarn of string around the spot until

Category › Track and Field

Title › How To Make Yourself An Archery Bow

it is about your hands length. Now you have a handle. If you want to create any detail work such as carving marks on the bow, do it now.

Now that you have finished your bow, you can move on to using it.

String Your Bow

To use your bow, you first need to string it.

Take your string and create a small loop on each end (slipknots work very well).

To string your bow, slip one loop over the bottom slit, and then push on the top of the bow to bring it down so you can slide the other loop over the top slit.

How to Use Your Bow

Now that you have a strung bow, grip it with your non-dominant hand, on the yarn or string grip. Take your long arrow (can be made out of long pieces of wood) and nock it.

To nock an arrow, just place the split end on the bowstring and rest the tip on (if you are right-handed) the left side of the bow, so it rests on your index finger. With your right hand, grip the string with your index and middle fingers only. Put the arrow in between them. Using your back and shoulder muscles, pull back on the string until the end of the arrow is next to your ear, point your arrow a little above what you are aiming for, and let go of the string.

The bow and arrow was used as a weapon, and still is, but now it is also used for sport. They are also fun to make. Enjoy!

Go Kart Racing At Gpny Mount Kisco

Next, he was guided to a fast Sodi go-kart, capable of being driven straight into the club’s record books. To provide a level playing field, each Sodi’s 6.5-hp Honda motor is identical to the others and will propel you to a heady 40 miles an hour.

The Perfect Week For Triathletes And Triathlons

March 19th, 2010 No comments

Those perfect weeks when training and racing go well are to be cherished and capitalized upon. Although they may not happen often, sooner or later you’ll have a great week of training, racing or even both, which will justify all your hard work and effort.

Life has a way When you are training and racing as a hobby, many other priorities will come before triathlon. You have to take the rough with the smooth and keep telling yourself that you are a triathlete. There will be a good week

some time in the future, and the present bad one will go easier if you think positively.

The curse of numbers The downside of your biggest week, the longer session or the best race you have ever had is the comedown from it. Training time cannot ever expand towards a 30-hour week as you approach spending almost as much time indulging your tri- hobby as being at real-life work. Similarly, super- long sessions or peak races are followed by lesser ones. View the exceptional as just that and accept

that lesser distances, speeds or totals are a reality. More is not better after a certain optimum is reached.

Planning makes perfect Planning what you intend to do can help to increase the chances of maximizing the good weeks. Making time whilst you are on holiday to train as well as doing family stuff, DIY or sightseeing is an example of good planning. Similarly, knowing when there’s more daylight on offer, work is easing off or you have a day in lieu helps when planning a good training wee

k. If the weather is horrendous, or you have massive family or social commitments or wall-to-wall work, it may not be the best time to plan that perfect week. It’s the total amount of training that you accrue, not any one week or any one session, that counts. Every athlete has to let life get in the way occasionally. If you don’t do this then you’re taking your training too seriously. Triathlon is a lifestyle that allows you to blend your exercise and competing alongside the rest of your commitments, such as work, family and a social life – make balance your watch word.

Top Tip Becoming a triathlete means being good at maximizing your time, not just for training but also for caring for and maintaining equipment and recovering from races and hard training sessions. Use every segment of spare time to its optimum – what you do now gives you more time to train later.
