    Dead Horse Threads

    I don't peruse the main forums here much anymore, but back in the day when I was more active on SB (2002-2005), the "use the search" attitude was fairly prevalent, but maybe that crowd moved over to TDS around that timeframe... LOL Glad to hear it's changed. It's hard to have a discussion with...

    2010 Fitness Exercise Challenge!!

    That's one of the reasons I've chosen to do lite-CrossFit type routines, and then add in any other tangents I want to go on. No week is ever the same for me and it keeps my mind from getting bored with it, and my body can't adapt and has no idea what the hell is going on.... but then again...

    I think for the most part I feel this way too, and my postings on various forums reflect that thinking.... but if I put my Devil's Advocate hat on.... having rambling topics makes it difficult to search for relevant information on a thread. However, if the primary purpose of the thread/forum is...

    2010 Fitness Exercise Challenge!!

    Jenny... recently I've started watching my weight (go up... LOL), but for the most part last year I didn't give a S##! You may want to focus on "Fitter, Faster, Stronger" and let the weight fall where it may... not saying to ignore what you're eating, but don't let a few pounds get you down...

    Training your skipper

    I've mostly gone by word of mouth from other tech divers that have used the charters/skippers. In the times I didn't, the dives were "easy" enough that a bit of futzing around didn't make a huge difference.... unless the surface was bumpy, and then my stomach wasn't usually too happy.

    2010 Fitness Exercise Challenge!!

    Seems that people work up an appetite when exercising and sometimes eat more than they realize... not saying that is what you're doing... but it's common.... just can't burn it off as fast as it can be consumed. I tend to keep my hunger under control by making sure I eat a modest amount of high...

    2010 Fitness Exercise Challenge!!

    I don't usually eat pizza, but had a hankering for a Supreme pizza last night, then finished it off today. Despite waiting a few hours before working out, even the warmup rowing was causing some real nasty tasting reflux. I decided to keep the workout lite and just piddled around instead...

    2010 Fitness Exercise Challenge!!

    Got a new short climbing rope to play with. Not much height in the basement, but I wrapped it around the pullup bar and it's suitable for "pulling"me off the floor if I'm inclined back or sitting down and want to pull myself into a standing position. Warmup: 500m Row 2:34 Rope Pulls/Climbs...

    Kathy... hope you get well soon! ************* After a big dinner and couple of beers on the road, I didn't want to interrupt my rest day with too much exercise, but boredom at the keyboard prompted me to improvise some Calisthenics in the hotel room. 1 Minute per exercise (Max reps)...
