The Best Core Workouts
Because you're getting pudgy.
To make things very simple, your “core” is the part of your body that should look like a tube sock filled with billiard balls and not like a garbage bag filled with mayonnaise. Here’s how to make the transition.

Here are the behaviors that will make women suspect you are crazy. We’re not saying stop, but maybe make up for them with an iWatch or something.

iWatch

Wireless charging! Futuristic flexible glass! A lower case “i” somewhere in the product name! Yeah, you want this.
Contest

As much as (we think) we love the iWatch, it doesn't exist yet. But this watch does -- and it could be yours. For free. It's pretty damn easy to enter, too.

World of Warcraft can wait. So can Game of Thrones. Basically, anything with dragons misses the mark. It’s time to get out there.

AskMen Interviews: Michael B. Jordan
You have to be pretty talented to make a name for yourself when your name is already “Michael Jordan.” But the former Wire star is up to the task.

It’s difficult enough to transition from watching porn to, say, leaving the house. So, to go from starring in it to Bollywood is a pretty big move.

Help children to Get Safe

Help children to Get Safe

The ASA's 'Get Safe' campaign gives pool operators the chance to ensure young people know how to stay safe, while having fun in and around water.
Fun, action-packed and informative land and pool based activities will teach primary school children all the important things they need to know when visiting coastal and inland waters, from how they can spot the dangers themselves, and how to act in an emergency.
Register for your 'Get Safe' resource pack which includes a Pool Event Guide with details about what, when and who should be involved, posters to promote the event and certificates to reward the young people attending on the day.
Resource packs will be offered free to the first 400 organisations to register. Pool operators who wish to host a Get Safe event at more than one site will be able to register online for each individual site.
Find out more about holding a 'Get Safe' event.

Are You Using This For High Elbow Freestyle?


[Effortless Swimming] Are You Using This For High Elbow Freestyle?

A friend of mine loves racing cars. He went to track day recently and had an instructor sit with him during a hot lap.

The instructor gave him one tip which eventually brought his lap times down by 7 seconds.

"Brake coming into the corner, set your line, accelarate out of the turn"

Sometimes all you need is to hear one thing for it click. Today's video might be just what you need to improve your high elbow catch.

Watch today's video now

Are you pulling like this?

What's the big deal about a high elbow catch, right?

You probably hear it talked about a lot and that's because it's crucial. You can't be a fast swimmer without it.

It's how you'll generate most of your propulsion because it sets up your pull.

Get this right and feel a difference in your stroke.

Regards,

Brenton Ford

P.S - All of our Australian Freestyle Clinics were booked out this month, but if you missed out we've got more coming in July. PLUS we've got some exciting training camps and open water trips scheduled for late 2014 and early 2015. Stay tuned!

Vesti din .... Norvegia.

V-am promis ca o sa va scriu un pic despre cum merg lucrurile aici in Norvegia...
 
Este total diferit fata de cum este in Romania, dar cred ca dumneavoastra cum ati lucrat in strainatate atatia ani, ati vazut si sistemul asta.
 
Exista doar cluburi de inot particulare si toata lumea trebuie sa plateasca , de la mic la mare...nu se face o selectie ca si in Romania, pur si simplu se trece la alt nivel pana cand se ajunge in grupa "recrut"/ selectionat (nr. tr.)
 
De aici, cei care continua poate sa ajunga si inotatori mai buni depinde de norocul pe care il au:)
 
Ceea ce m-a surprins la ei a fost faptul ca ei nu mint...daca au de facut 10 x100 fac 10 bucati fara sa fie nevoie sa le numeri, daca nu au chef sa inoate , sau nu se simt bine..., pur si simplu iti spun si nu mai inoata !

Aici in Norvegia copii pot sa aleaga, doar este democratie si asta inseamna ca si copii au dreptul sa aleaga, nu ii inpui tu ceva, dar daca vrea el sa faca - face...si atunci face foarte bine!!!
 
Exista foarte multe concursuri, si majoritatea zonale, la care sa nu fie costuri prea mari pentru a participa la concurs.
 
La aceste concursuri , inotatorii pot realiza baremurile pentru participarea la campionatele nationale...care sunt destul de grele.. -  de ex. : 0.53 .9 la 100 cr , in bazin de 25 de m, pentru juniori.
In functie de cati participant la nationale ai, atata timp/ spatiu primeste clubul respectiva, de la primarie, adica spatiu de bazin care este gratuity , nu se plateste, asa sunt sunt stimulati sa aiba cati mai multi copii la nationale ca sa aiba acces in bazin...
 
Avand acces in bazin pentru performanta [bazine, ca sunt multe, fiecare scoala aproape are un bazin in care poti sa faci initiere,] dar cluburile mici, fiind private se intretin singure.
 
Cei care conduc clubul fac parte de obicei dintre parintii copiilor, si toata munca pe care o realizeaza, cu inscrierile, lectii, sedinte,
este voluntariat...
 
Scopul lor este sa aiba copii multi la initiere ca sa faca bani si sa le platesca o parte , de obicei 50la suta copiilor care fac performanta si care merg in cantonamente, participarea la concurs, instructorii...etc.
 
Sunt foarte multe cluburi ...intr-un oras de 300 mii de locuitori sunt de obicei 3-4 cluburi de inot, si fiecare oras mai mic, are cel putin nu club de inot.
 
Copilul vine la antrenament doar daca are el chef....nu poti tu sa ii impui ca trebuie sa vina....dar in  general cei care au rezultate bune, muncesc foarte mult!
 
Despre mine, va zic ca sunt bine, acuma, foarte bine, am avut probleme mari de sanatate , la 2 luni dupa ce m-am mutat aici, dar totul este bine acuma. Dar banuiesc ca stiti deja.
 
Cam asta ar fi in mare!
 
Va doresc o duminica placuta
 
Carla
 ==============
Acest email l-am primit acum si il si postez acum..., dar ma ingrijoreaza  info., ca draga noastra Carla, a avut probleme de sanatate - eu ii doresc sa nu le mai aibe......
