If you don't have easy access to a pool and don't like impact, then Rowing and Kettlebell workouts are good conditioning exercises. Cycling or Mountain Biking can be a nice option too. If you like to dabble in many different things, you can follow the www.CrossFit.com site and scale back their...

Toughest part of moving from the Toledo area to the Cincy area is that I don't get up to Sanilac much anymore.... for most of the reasons that are pointed out in this thread. My first five trips to Sanilac were called or blown out... not real good odds. LOL. Tough enough to swallow when the...

Well... I've managed to get back to some semblance of consistent exercise each day this week. Yoga, Deadlifts, Cleans, rowing, calisthenics, walking, more yoga ... not a whole lot, mind you, but it's a start.

Perhaps... but then people won't be killing themselves in it by methods most of us consider stupid, nor will people that think they have skills be destroying the caves by flailing around. {shrug}

Whenever I see a discussion like this, I think of the ruling in the case where Gary Gentile took on NOAA for the right to dive the Monitor. Judge Hugh Dolan ruled in his [Gentile's} favor citing a 1980 decision which said: “A venturesome minority will...

It's one I'd make. :)

NWG... too bad Coach Izzy is a bit far across the pond there... even so, it might be worth visiting him a couple of times a month and then using his "remote coaching" service.

Unless you go with a "classic", I think they all have straps on top. I don't know how well the Classic would work for diving though. It's not recommended for white water were the water flow could pull the shoe off. Diving in fin might pull it off too.

Penny got the KSO's, I got the TrekSport.

We just got our first pair of Vibram's FiveFingers shoes this weekend. No chance to exercise in them yet, but we're wearing them around the house doing the remodeling work. Penny wanted to wear hers to work, but doesn't think that would go over so well.

We've got a fairly steep decline from our back yard down to the creek that runs beside our place and into the woods. I've mowed a few paths back down the hill over the past couple of months. A couple of days ago I decided to kamikaze down the hill on my mountain bike, but I didn't think I'd...

We're living in a house that is 75% under renovation. Without a working kitchen, and making do with mini-fridges, our healthy eating habits are almost non-existent and I really haven't done much with the workout area in the basement yet. Here's some pics of our progress so far. Bob...

Eat a doughnut... it'll ease your depression.

I've found every excuse to not exercise while in the motel this week. After catching up on my sleep last night, I felt pretty good today after class, so I watched the Pavel Kettlebell DVD and did some KB exercises. Loosened shoulders by rotating a kettlebell around my head in both...

So far this new house is paying off.... been too busy to "exercise", but staying extremely busy doing stuff and have lost 7 lbs in about 2 weeks. Not sitting around munching as much as I normally do.

How did your foot feel cycling?

Bummer Sarita... sorry to hear about your foot. I did 7hrs of power washing the porch today (Penny did 3hrs on it 2 days ago). It didn't look that hard when I saw them do it on TV. LOL Fortunately the front porch is done! Aleve will be my friend tonight!

Here's some in a Facebook album. Bob Overstreet's Photos - House May 2010 | Facebook Let me know if you can view it. I think I have it public.

Since last Saturday it's been lots of loading boxes, ripping out carpet (ugh!!), unloading boxes, mowing an acre lot with 18" high grass with a push mower until my John Deere is delivered. Long, late hours taking on a "fixer upper"... but we're having fun! I need a break and am taking it...
