Brentford ne scrie...:

Effortless Swimming] Are you taking time out to do this?

On the 9-hour drive to Sydney (from Melbourne) last weekend I listened to a really good book that made me stop and think.

I was heading to Sydney for the Master's National Championships, the main event we target for the season. We train our butts off for 12 months of the year, but sometimes we end up missing this one thing.

This book wasn't on the topic of swimming but the concept it talked about still applies.

Discover what it is HERE

It was great event and I got to meet a lot of Effortless Swimming customers and viewers which was AWESOME! Thank you for coming and saying 'hello'.

Regards,

Sfaturi pt marathonistii nostri...

Start training for your next marathon


Marathon Training Programme
Dear Sports Enthusiast,
Most runners and triathletes I know would dearly love to try their hand at a marathon – if only just to say that they’ve successfully competed at this iconic distance. But they’re discouraged by the number of people they know who started training for the event – only to quit before the race because of injury or over-training.
Committing to running a marathon is not a step to be taken lightly. But if you know what you are doing in terms of training, nutrition, recovery and all the rest of it, then there’s no reason why you shouldn’t complete the training – and the actual race.
And do so in a highly respectable time as well.
That’s why I commissioned John Shepherd, a longstanding contributor to Peak Performance, to construct our brand new training course Marathon Training Programme: how to run a sub 4 hour marathon .
It takes you on a 6 month, week by week, day by day training regime. Every day for the next 24 weeks you are given a specific training session and goal to achieve. Look up any day in the programme and there will be an instruction for you to get running, working out, swimming or cycling, stretching or resting.
So it’s concise, authoritative – and, above all, practical.
What sets our training information apart from the rest? In a word: science. Or, more specifically, sports science. Because at Peak Performance we’ve been publishing the very best sports science training tips and techniques for years – via our web site and monthly newsletter, and in a host of special reports and workbooks.
So you can be sure that every word of Marathon Training Programme: how to run a sub 4 hour marathon rests on a solid, proven scientific foundation.
And that you’ll get the definitive answers you need to such questions as:
  • What’s the most common mistake runners make in the opening weeks of training for a marathon?
  • How do you know if you’re running too fast a pace – even without a heart rate monitor?
  • What are the six characteristics of a good, economical running style?
  • Which stretching exercises should a runner do to keep injury at bay?
  • How far should you run without needing to carry water?
  • What can you tell from your 10k time about your marathon running prospects?
  • How do you know if you’re running your longer sessions at the correct pace – not too fast, not too slow?
  • What’s the easiest way to accurately determine your correct running threshold?
  • What’s the right way to eat during a long run?
  • Why do some people actually gain weight while training for a marathon – and how do you make sure you’re not one of them?
  • What’s the key to avoiding injury in the final weeks of your marathon training?
  • What all-important preparation should you do the day before the race?
  • How do you know if your first-half marathon pace is right for you – so you don’t ‘hit the wall’ at 18 or 20 miles?
In short, Marathon Training Programme: how to run a sub 4 hour marathon is the definitive guide to marathoning success at your first attempt.
And because it’s available as an ebook, you can start putting the ideas it contains into practice within just 24 hours.
So here’s my personal promise to you: follow the step-by-step programme we give you and, at the end of 24 weeks you’ll be ready to compete in your first marathon – and finish in a creditable 4 hours or less.
As a member, you’re invited to order your copy of this brand new training program TODAY at an exclusive, advance order, 42% discount price – but for a LIMITED time only. (More details on how to get your copy below.)
Where else can you find such cutting-edge advice in one place – and all of it based on the very latest sports science research?
Here's what some of our recent Peak Performance customers have said about it:
“Training advice from Peak Performance has helped me to improve by using the correct exercises and strategies. I have also learned to get the maximum training effect with less time spent than in the past. A must for anyone wanting to keep abreast with the latest knowledge on sports performance.”
Geoff Lienert, Distance Runner, New Zealand
“I like to know that I am getting information that the average person doesn’t. This makes me feel like I’m one step ahead of my competition.”
Gary Barnes, Triathlete, Australia
Peak Performance articles helped me focus my training and gave me great results. I had hit a plateau, and thought I was through improving. Once I started applying the information in the articles, I was able to improve my times from 5ks on up to marathons.”
Philip Aucoin, Distance Runner, USA
If you’re really serious about competing – and finishing – a marathon in the next 12 months, then it’s time to take advantage of the latest thinking on distance running – and impress your family, friends and workmates with your marathoning ability!
Get your copy of Marathon Training Programme: how to run a sub 4 hour marathon TODAY, at our special, 42%-discount. What’s more, you’ve got 30 days in the convenience of your own home or sports club to decide whether or not you want to keep the program or return it for a full refund.
So make sure you order your copy TODAY.
Yours sincerely,
Jonathan Pye

.. la ei, se apropie iarna....

[Effortless Swimming] What's Getting You Up Early?

A friend of mine has registered for next years Melbourne Ironman. It will be his first one. The small act of registering will set in place an entirely different twelve months than if he hadn't registered.

Why?

Because he now has a reason not to hit the 'snooze' button.

When it's cold and wet outside, the challenge he has coming in March 2014 will be pulling him out the door and to the pool like a persistent child nagging to get what he wants.

When you've set a big goal it sits in the back of your mind with every decision you make.

"Should I eat this donut?"

"If I skip this session I promise I'll make it up tomorrow..."

Nah uh...when your big goal is set it's easy to make these decisions.

So...what's your big goal?
