dendrite Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 12 minutes ago, STILL N OF PIKE said: Distance runners are Atrophied of leg muscle usually the higher the distance the more atrophy. Look at Olympic distance runners, hardly any quad , hamstring or glute muscle . Then look at the sprinters- jacked legs and Glutes. Direct correlation as you go from sprinters to distance runners (amongst the medaled athlete’s/ really the entire field ) you atrophy more muscle the higher the distance you participate in . Sprinting is the heavy weights/lower reps version of running. Heavy weights build muscle/strength. Sprinting builds a stronger heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, I did my MCL after snagging a tree on the bobsled track out to the 19th hole at Mad River. Went down to the lodge pounded Lawson SOSs until I didn't notice it, then proceeded to lap the stuff out past Paradise. Great day! Next day and weeks sucked though lol I used to do 3 10ks a week to stay in shape for hockey, but after a year I started feeling it in my ankles and knees. Think I am just not built for it. My wife recently decided to pull the trigger on a peloton and I now understand the hype and probably use it more than she does. I want a peloton. I was actually in my best shape when I used to bike every day. Hill climbing and distance, even gravel back road riding. Biking is low impact and just a great workout. Great interval training. My knees and ankles are going to be smoked soon from skiing and then hiking. Down hiking is so bad for your knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is the weight of the various models. Why are they using one with the CMC weighted more than the GFS and then one where the GFS is weighted the most? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a suspicion we finish +1 anyway ...which is a relative win for those that don't prefer summer, for a lot of reason. ha! It's the way in which these/those neg values got aggregated - it took a bizarre pattern anomaly to do it, with 594 dm ridge anomaly actually CAUSING a cold surface - using observed means that were probably pretty rarefied frankly. It's almost (symbolic) as though it got so hot in the mid and upper troposphere that it caused things to flip by way of inverting the sounding too much. But ... that odd timing of that surface high genesis and movement over the last 3 to ...jesus 4 days now, has really happened in a range depth of Rosby heights, both hydro and non hydro static, very seldom seen, and as a consequent, we sustained a cold low level jet right under some otherwise extraordinary warmth aloft. Very strange - Talks about faking cold. Whatever it takes to keep balance the climate loading. I have mused this in the past... Usually when you have a striking climate departure, usually start seeing a counter/mirror or diametric balance emerge, whether in short extremeness, or in aggregate...usually not too far away. Sometimes that does take awhile when it is the aggregate form. Put it this way...if we were -2 for July ( also very plausible...), and -3 for august, we were average for summer. But the sensible impact for summer enthusiasts was a gip-job shirked piece of shit stolen season. Same bullshit happens in winter. All a season's worth of snow eggs laid down in two storms in CC PWAT mass, then it never snows again. Average year? Just making zamples... But, June was staggeringly warm here. I don't know if that is sustainable for a summer- intuition tells us no anyway. I don't know if July can manage to sustain -4 when it took the above rareness to get it that cold, and there is still two weeks remaining... and that base-line heights are positive through the end of the month in the ens means of all. It'll be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been oscillating back-and-forth across every two or three days worth of cycles.

But aren't those just the same as the stationary bike at the gym ? I mean, I realize with Pel. you get that internet group thing and classes and shit ... But that means nothing to one's physiology. The stationary tech at the gym allows one to set resistance, keep track of calories, MPH and distance traveled ..etc. So you are either turning the peddles at resistance-cadence, or not, right. I'm not sure what the advantage is - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how we lost Marshall Dodge (Bert and I) and almost the same for Stephen King. And only in a minority of times it's the biker not the driver. Several years back on the "Bike Across Maine" fundraiser a biker was killed when he took one hand off the bar to grab a drink, just as a log truck was passing him. Truck was well off the shoulder and at the same speed as other traffic but the big rig's slipstream pulled the one-hander biker into a rear bunk, right at helmet level. Driver had no clue until he stopped in Farmington, and even then there was no evidence except the timing of both vehicles and some eyewitnesses. Combination of small phenomena resulting in a big tragedy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combination of small phenomena resulting in a big tragedy. Yeah... I used to get into it the life. The clip-in shoes, and the helmet and garb. I turned right down an intersecting street and some teen age nitwit wasn't paying attention and hit me from behind on her bicycle - wasn't even a car... I heard her shriek out in horror just then, and then I as on the ground having just spent 1.24 seconds air born over the handlebars. It takes just that much to ruin a day ..week, month year or in that poor bloke's case, life. I just lost my nerve. I'm mid age and no ambition to be sleek. Fuggit. work out is a work out. I'm perfectly contented now on my high tech Specialized Rockhopper. 'Sides, my road bike was forced retired back in April because it had developed a micro-fracture in the frame some where. Can't be fixed... But, libel to fold up on me going around some tight corner at 33 at some bad point or the other. I'm like ...okay, that's it - I don't care about this hobby that much. So, I outfitted just the back wheel of the Rockhop' with a slick middle hybrid tire tread option, so that it spins okay on roads, and I just hit the bike trails. We have a lot of them around down here now. They can be 12 or even 16 miles long in one direction, so if you can make a good enough distance work out going to the end and back.

We went the route of a Concept 2 Rowing Machine earlier this summer as I am under orders not to run for the foreseeable future. I am really enjoying it, which I hope is not just the novelty factor, but am still at the stage of rebuilding my fitness and adjusting to the new stressor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have heard that twice in my life. My buddies and I got caught on in a storm walking a golf course last year. We just went into the woods a bit and crouched down next to a cluster of bigger trees. Im not sure what you are supposed to do in that instance, but standing out in the open sure didn’t seem like the right choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
