Eating and Exercise - Timing it Right

Although most endurance athletes know the importance of fueling-up with carbs (while leaving enough time to digest before exercise), and replenishing with carbs and protein right after exercise, the average person could probably benefit from the same approach to their regular workouts (I'm sure many people still work out before breakfast). For more info., check out this article from the May Clinic, courtesy of Washington Sports Pe… Continue

Does Stretching Reduce Injuries and Post-Workout Soreness?..No, according to most research

The NYT recently featured this article saying that most research shows that pre and post-workout stretching does not reduce injuries and soreness. My questions are:

1) Do people believe this (I feel that stretching probably does help reduce injuries, somewhat)?

2) What about regular/on-going stretching, like Yoga (that would have to help reduce injuries, I would think)… Continue

Thai Massage Therapy - Totally Different from Typical/Swedish Massage

OK, after today's A.R.T. Treatment by Andy Smith (to bang out the last remnants of fibrosis in my shoulder capsule and knee before heading out to Tahoe and its measley 150" base), I decided to try a Thai Massage from Pam Ruangsakvicht, the massage therapist at Tim Scheuerman & Andy Smith's Advanced Chripractic Office in Sterling, VA. Both Tim and Andy told me that Pam was excellent and coordinates her therapy with a patient's treatment. Well, the mas… Continue

How do muscles fatigue?..by cellular calcium leakage.

According to a Coumbia University Study aimed at treating congestive heart failure, the cause of muscle fatigue is calcium leakage from muscle cells (Lactic Acid secretion had long since been discredited as the cause). With calcium-leakage blocking drugs, mice could run 10-20% longer - is an anti-fatigue drug on the way?..and would it be prudent?..

Proof that exercise slows the aging process?

[Modern] Athletes may live longer, according to this recent 10-year Study of 2,400 British twins which shows that those who exercised exhibited longer Telomeres - the protective caps on the end of chromosomes which shorten each time a cell divides, ultimately limiting cellular replication. Maybe, as Oasis said, "You and I are gonna live forever!"

Adam:

I was very pleased to get a call from Gregg Malkary on friday.

We had a few minutes to try to catch up for the past thirty years or so.

I have convinced him (it did not take much persuasion) that we must all rendezvous for a Lake Tahoe area Ski Trip
(my suggestion boys only - no kids, no wives)
Gregg suggested perhaps Northstar or Kirkwood maybe Squaw or Heavenly... any of it would be awesome as I have never skied in Tahoe.

I am dedicated to setting this up.
Participants:
Green
Shorin
Malkary
Lipstein
Reyer
Nasser
Any other childhood friends who would like to ski I guess.

We'll rent a multi-bedroom condo for a four day weekend slope side. If it's not too dear.

Lets see how snow conditions start out in Nov. - dec. before we make a commitment to a resort location

We can have that race we always talked about. jk

Adam, its Lippy.
Give me a buzz and lets hook up. I will eventually make it to DC sometime this summer I'm guessing but if you find yourself in NYC we gotta hook it up for beer and boxing.

My brother said that he saw you today at Andy's. I immediately tried calling you, but quickly realized that you have a new number.
Can you forward me your new contact info.
My number is the same.

Hey there:

Update on the never ending saga.

After yet another trail run cut short on Sunday - this time 28 minutes - I have decided to go back to the "traditional" medicine" route. It has been 2 years since the original inury and nothing has seemed to help (see profile for intervention techniques tried so far)

So, as I mentioned back in January, I'm beginning to wonder if the original diagnisis (IT Band Syndrome /Biceps Femoris) was the correct one. So off I go tomorrow to an M.D. to get referred to an orthopedic whatever. So we start again.

If anyone on this site knows of a great, and I mean GREAT, D.C. area orthopedist that understands kinetic chains and how all of this inter-relates, but who is also not above using "tradtional" medicine (MRIs etc). Let me know.

Will keep you up to date.

What is a Hostel ?

This is my first blog post and i would enjoy to write a few sentences about hostels. Hostels are a magnificent method to see the world on a budget. From the cheapest to the more grand there is something to accommodate every preference and budget. The important thing about hostels is that tons of university students flock to them as they are cheap and enjoyable so there is all the time lots of student travelers around to party with!

In generally every other… Continue

Young, 26. “I started snorkeling a few years ago and it really sparked my
