Simon gives us some transition tips, we follow the steps of a Dutch team raising funds for ALS and we review a new book recently launched by a fellow Swimtrekker! We look forward to seeing you this summer and don't forget...FERRIES ARE FOR WIMPS! The SwimTrek Team www.swimtrek.com 'SWIMTREK SWIFT' TOURS LAUNCHED We are excited to announce the launch of our new Swift tours for the 2011 season. If you see the SwimTrek Swift logo next a date on the availability page, that means that week has been specially reserved for faster swimmers who want to push themselves just that little bit more. If you can swim 1km in less than 25 minutes, these tours may be ideal for you. We are currently running 'Swift' Tours in Croatia, The Lycian Way and Sardinia with more destinations to come soon! For more information click here. WORLD-RENOWNED MIDMAR MILE SWIM ATTRACTS A STAR-STUDDED CROWD The world renowned aQuelle Midmar Mile is set for a royal visit this year as former Olympian and future Princess of Monaco, Charlene Wittstock, has confirmed that she will finally swim her first Midmar Mile. Wittstock competed at the Sydney Olympics alongside silver medallist Terence Parkin, her long time training partner. Wittstock will be joined by Lewis Pugh, the first person ever to undertake a long distance swim at the North Pole in -1.7 °C and without a wetsuit! Held annually at the Midmar Dam Resort in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa on the 12th and 13th February 2011, the Midmar Mile is in it's 37th year and has attracted over 17000 annual entries over the last few years. In September 2009, the Guiness Book of Records officially recognised the Midmar Mile as the world's largest open water swimming event with 13755 finishers. To find out more about the race and how to enter, click here. SWIMTREKKER LAUNCHES HIS NEW NOVEL! Having both the English Channel and SwimTrek Hellespont swim, under his belt, accomplished swimmer Michael Jennings has taken the plunge with a completely different challenge, the release of his book, "Believe It or Not!". Jennings hopes to raise over 20K for a North Kent charity and "Believe It or Not!" hit the shelves in October 2010. The book details his extraordinary life story, which includes his first swim across the Channel in 1960 and life as the world's number one amateur swimmer during the early 1960s. "Believe It or Not!" is available online HERE or alternatively a copy can be bought from Mr Jennings on 01494 704 495. HELLESPONT SWIM 2011 FUNDRAISER When one of their friends contracted a neurodegenerative disease, Rene Geskes and a group of 10 others decided they needed "some action and some serious fund raising!". As a result, all 11 have signed up to the 2011 Hellespont race in an effort to raise a massive €50,000 for the ALS Foundation which helps and supports those with the neurodegenerative disease. They already have the likes of triple Olympic champion Pieter van den Hoogenbrand behind their fantastic cause and if you would like more information on the group and their challenge, go to ALS Hellespont Challenge and for more information on our 2011 Hellespont tour, Click Here. WINTER SWIMMING - A film by Jack Bright Jack Bright is producing a film that specializes in winter swimming in freezing water temperatures. "In winter, the temperature of the open water drops to 0°C (32°F). Some people swim in such temperatures for up to 22 minutes. We swim up to 1K competitively in near freezing water sometimes and there is an ongoing competition called the Czech Cup with races every weekend through the winter. At the top end, there are channel swimmers. At the other end, there are people who like to swim for pleasure so a wide spectrum of people are involved.." The film was shot during one of the harshest central European winters in years and features beautiful cinematography from award-winning Jan Mika. "Hopefully after watching this film, people will be inclined to embrace nature, be more active and try winter swimming for themselves." For more info on this film, click here. SIMON'S TECHNIQUE TIP- TRANSITION Many triathletes are so focused on the 3 individual disciplines that the 2 transitions are often neglected. It can be argued that the transitions are a discipline in themselves. In T1 (Transition from swim to bike) the biggest time saver is undoubtedly learning how to remove the wetsuit quickly. Practising this disrobing technique will help reduce your race times. For top tips on a faster transition, click here. EGYPTIAN RED SEA WINTER ESCAPE Taking place during the Northern Hemisphere winter, this is ideal to escape the winter blues! Swimming over the striking reefs of the Egyptian Red Sea, no other tour offers such striking underwater vistas. Chosen to offer the swimmer an idyllic location in the Northern Hemisphere winter, the coral coast line of the Red Sea in the Sinai region stretches for more than 800km with a backdrop of harsh red mountains to the North and the distant shorelines of Saudi Arabia in the South. Our central location in the laid back coastal town of Dahab enables us to explore a vast array of reefs, dive sights and secluded coast lines. With few signs of mass tourism, stunning shoreline reefs and year round sunshine and warm water, this is an ideal location for open water swimming. For more information and to book this tour, please click here. JOIN THE SWIMTREK TEAM! We are looking for swimming guides who can work on our open water swimming tours preferably for the 2011 May to November season. You will need to be an experienced open water swimmer and have the ability to assist with the planning and running of all arrangements throughout the duration of the tour. You will be required to obtain a beach lifeguard, first aid at work, food hygiene and powerboat qualification and a swim teaching/coaching qualification would be an advantage. A flexible, responsible and dynamic attitude combined with an outgoing personality are qualities ideally suited to this position. We would also prefer you to have either dual EU nationality or the appropriate immigration documentation to allow you to work in the EU. We are also seeking guides who can speak Italian with the appropriate experience to work (but not exclusively) on our Sardinia tour.

Vrei sa stii cat traiesti?

Vrei sa stii cat traiesti?
Afla cu ce viteza mergi



Un ultim studiu in domeniu sustine ca exista o legatura evidenta intre longevitate si viteza banalului mers pe jos. Cu alte cuvinte, persoanele varstnice care se straduiesc sa-si mentina un mers vioi, in tempo alert, traiesc mai mult decat cei care merg incet, in stilul caracteristic batranilor.

Studiul nu dicteaza in mod automat ca batranii cu mers incet sunt condamnati sa moara mai devreme, ci sustine ca un mers vioi este un semn indubitabil al unei stari de sanatate bune, care duce, evident, la sporirea sanselor de a atinge o varsta mai inaintata decat media.

"Nu vrem ca afirmatiile noastre sa fie luate ad literam, iar batranii sa isi forteze organismul pentru a merge mai repede, in speranta unor ani in plus de trait. Din contra, multe persoane varstnice au probleme de sanatate care le interzic categoric o intensificare a efortului fizic", ne asigura dr. Stepahnie Studenski, gerontolog in cadrul Universitatii din Pittsburg si co-autor al studiului.

Pe de alta parte, s-a observat o stransa legatura intre viteza de deplasare si procesul de imbatranire, nu doar la om, ci la toti reprezentantii regnului animal. Bunaoara, odata ce animalele de companie incep sa imbatraneasca, au nevoie de opriri de odihna tot mai dese, in cadrul plimbarilor de dimineata.

Chiar si exemplarele de viermi din specia Caenorhabditis elegans, care se deplaseaza mai incet, mor mai repede decat exemplarele de aceeasi varsta care au dus o viata mai activa.

Pentru a testa acesta teorie, cercetatorii americani au strans date culese de la aproximativ 35.000 de persoane care au depasit varsta de 65 ani.

In afara de varsta si sex, timpul necesar unei persoane in etate pentru a acoperi, in mers, o distanta de cativa zeci de metri, este una dintre cele mai bune metode de a prezice daca persoana in cauza va mai fi in viata peste inca 10 ani.

Iar eu sunt tare curios cum apreciaza asta....??

Comentarii ‘de fond’ ....

Comentarii ‘de fond’ ....

Iata ca mi-au parvenit si mie rezultatele de la campionatele de fond.

M-am uitat prin ele, cu curiozitate sa vad ce ‘spune’. Compionatul de Juniori, evident cu probe lungi, chiar si la stafete pare a ‘zice’ : ‘nu vreti sa inotati distante lungi... bineee, iata ca aveti numai pe astea, sa vedem ce-o sa faceti...”.

Ideia nu-i rea si obliga toata lumea la o noua abordare, ’mai muncitoreasca’ a antrenamentelor, concursurilor si iata ce-am conspectat eu din regulamentul de concurs:

Toate rezultatele se afla pe siteul federatiei!

CAMPIONATUL NATIONAL DE SEMIFOND AL JUNIORILOR

PITESTI * 16.12.2010 - 19.12.2010 *

Bazin: 50m 8 culoare

....... PROBELE COMPETIŢIEI:

400m.- 800m.-1500m. Liber; Ştafetă 4x200m.Liber;

400m. Spate; 400m. Bras; 400m. Fluture; 200m.- 400m. Mixt;

Ştafetă 4x200m.Mixt (câte un 200m. în fiecare procedeu tehnic: Sp.,Br.,Fl.,Cr.)

Deci, aici se vede clar ca FRN a dorit sa ‚rupa pisica in doua’ si brava ei; in fond nu moare nimeni daca este determinat sa dea mai mare anetie si acestor distante....

ZIUA I-a

REUNIUNEA I-a, ora 10.00 REUNIUNEA II-a, ora 17.00

1. 400 m Liber masculin Finalele probelor 1 – 6

2. 400 m Liber feminin

3. 400 m Mixt masculin

4. 400 m Mixt feminin

5. 400 m Spate masculin

6. 400 m Spate feminin

OBS: dar repartizarea probelor pe reuniuni de concurs m-a indeamna sa cred ca programarea probelor a fost facuta ciudat.

Iata ziua I-a: 400 Liber cu 400 Spate nu se potriveste asa de bine, in fond este un concurs de verificare nationala si se poate intampla ca unii sa aibe interese in ambele procedee; ar fi fost recomandabil, dupa gandirea mea cam inapoiata..., sa fie o alternanta intre o proba cu miscari ciclice-alternative si una cu miscari ciclice-concomitente (Bras, Delfin...?) si mai am o remarca – de putea introduce proba scurta de mixt-individual in locul celei lungi (*poate cea mai grea proba a unui concurs de inot; proba asta l-a determinat pe celebrul M. Phelps sa declare, dupa JO Beijing, ca nu o mai inoata inca odata...), deci - dece nu 200 mixt in loc de 400 mixt?

Dar daca tot suntem la capitolul ’demolari’, eu as fi optat ca in prima reuniune sa pun cele mai lungi probe de Liber (800 sau 1500m) completate de o stafeta, chiar cea de 4x200 mixt..., infine.

Ramane intrebarea majora si la care astept o explicatie, poate ca eu gresesc...: Dece in prima zi 2 probe din ctg. ’cu miscari alternative’ ...., se putea baga brasul sau alta combinare...

ZIUA II-a

REUNIUNEA III-a, ora 10.00 REUNIUNEA IV-a, ora 17.00

7. 400 m Fluture feminin Finalele probelor 7 – 8

8. 400 m Fluture masculin 9. 800 m Liber feminin – seria tare

9. 800 m Liber feminin – serii slabe 10. 800 m Liber masculin– seria tare

10. 800 m Liber masculin – serii slabe

Obs.: aici mergea si Spatele si 800....

ZIUA III-a

REUNIUNEA V-a, ora 10.00 REUNIUNEA VI-a, ora 17.00

11. 400 m Bras masculin Finalele probelor 11 – 14

12. 400 m Bras feminin

13. 4x200 m Liber masculin

14. 4x400 m Liber feminin

Obs.: Aici pare OK .....; dar jocul programarii poate nu permitea decat o asa combinare..., infine, stiu ei antrenorii si FRN ce i-a determinat la o astfel de solutie......

ZIUA IV-a

REUNIUNEA VII-a, ora 10.00 REUNIUNEA VIII-a, ora 17.00

15. 200 m Mixt feminin Finalele probelor 15 – 16

16. 200 m Mixt masculin 17. 1500 m Liber feminin – seria tare

17. 1500 m Liber feminin – serii slabe 18. 1500 m Liber masculin – seria tare

18. 1500 m Liber masculin – serii slabe Finalele probelor 19 – 20

19. 4x200 m Mixt feminin

20. 4x200 m Mixt masculin

Obs.:

In ultima reuniune - Cam mult mixt si iar mixt.... cred ca juniorii au fost zapaciti de atatea schimbari...?

==============================================

Infine, Iata ce cred eu - pe viitor asemenea concursuri se pot face ’acasa’, prin corespondenta si ca ’probe de control’ a pregatirii intr-o periodizare anume aleasa fata de concursul mare, de obiectiv...

CAMPIONATUL NATIONAL DE SEMIFOND, COPII 11-13 ANI

27. 100 m Bras băieţi 13 ani 31. 400 m Liber (clas.craul) fete 11 ani

28. 100 m Bras băieţi 12 ani 32. 400 m Liber (clas.craul) fete 12 ani

Obs.: cu o saptamana inaintea camp. Juniorilor, programul de concurs pare mai elastic si asta probabil ca la gr. Copii este nevoie de o ‘’ameliorare” a incordarii, a efortului; deci o nota buna pt organizatori; si programarea este mai armonoasa si nu asa rigida ca la Juniori / dar Juniorii trebuie “caliti” si poate ca nu ar fi gresit sa-i incercam si in probe, situatii mai dificile.

Eu ma gandeam ca ar fi fost mai bine ca acest concurs sa aibe in el si probe scurte de viteza (50m), daca nu ca probe individuale macar ca stafete; ar fi putut fi stafetele clasice (4x50 in fiec are procedeu +mixt) sau forme distrative – cea mai simpla ar fi fost cea de 8x50 cu 4 baieit si 4 fete, sau numai cu baieit si nunmai cu fete...., dar poate ca este greu sa gasesti 8 concurenti la aceiasi grupa de avrsta; o alta stafeta inteersanta ar fi fost asta: eu ii spun ‘’ stfeta schioapa’’ – scrisa a r fi asa [ ‘’N’’ x(3x50 procedeul ales)], adica echipa de stafeta este formata din 3 concurenti care vor inota, schimband stafeta de ‘’N’’ ori; astfel fieare dintre cei 3 ar avea de inotat de “N” ori acelasi procedeu, de regula de 3-4 ori. In desfasurarea acestei stafete apar schimbari de ierarhii ceea ce face lupta si mai palpitanta.

Din corespondenta cu antrenorii:

ce 'spune' ac. clasament cumulat...?
poate peste 3-4 ani vom afla ca cei care erau acum primii au disparut in schimb cei mai de la coada sunt prezenti si mai fac fata...?

daca stii pe cineva care sa fi facut analiza... pune-ma in contat sau spune-mi sa-l caut eu
ceva nu inteleg din ac. forma de concurs;

eu as fi optat pe aceste probe de fond (cu rezerve...) dar langa ele sa fi fost si 50m daca nu individuale, macar in stafete.

100+400 par a testa o calitatea f. speciala de efort care pe la 11-12 ani nu prea are decat informatii de moment, nu de perspectiva, infine.. mai vb.

LA MULTI ANI - 2011 !

LA MULTI ANI – 2011 !

Aceasta urare, atat de cunoscuta si deja mult obisnuita noua, o adresez, cu precadere, celor care slujesc EFS-ul, profesorilor de educatie fizica si sport, antrenorilor, cadrelor didatice care formeaza noi generatii de profesori si antrenori, medicilor si cercetatorilor specialisti din domeniu, activistilor si iubitorilor de miscare si de lupta contra bolilor generate de sedentarism dar si celor, de la extrema cealalta, a bolilor+deficientelor fizice, psihice generate de exagerata intrebuintare a ceea ce numim noi ‘exercitiul fizic’ – ‘caramida’ cu care cladim un corp sanatos, armonios dezvoltat si apt de a trai, mereu adaptandu-se optim , la conditiile mereu schimbatoare ale mediului inconjurator.

Toata aceasta lunga fraza, in care am incercat sa cuprind [direct si indirect, aluziv] mai toate elementele care ne marcheaza profesiunea noastra are rostul ei, anume de a pune in fata dv. a unei framantari, mai mici, parte din una mare si arzatoare: unirea, solidaritatea mai multor semeni ai nostri in jurul unei idei, a unei meniri sau a unei profesii.

Este vb. ds. solidarizarea noastra cu telurile formulate inca din 5 Ianuarie 1990, deci imediat dupa schimabarea regimului politic al tarii noate, prin infiintarea Societatii Profesorilor de Educatie fizica si Sport din Romania (SPEFSR).

De fapt este vb. ds. ‘ne-solidarizarea’ noastra cu aceste teluri si asta se remarca din neparticiparea profesorilor, antrenorilor la acest mare ‘sindicat sportiv’ – care ar putea sa ne ajute la o mai buna relationare cu cei din jur sau cu cei de care depinde EFS-ul.

Inca odata doresc sa amintesc diversilor colegi de breasla, care au pacatul, fiecare in felul sau, de a se considera cate un ‘ombilico del mondo’ .... practicandu-si versiunea preferata, ca SPEFSR a fost REINFIINTATA de fapt din 28 Dec. 1989 de dl. Prof. Dr. Mihai Epuran, prof.lector Tibi Foldvary si prof./simplu Mircea 0laru, adunati in locuinta d.lui Epuran, in taina si cu grija zilelor ce urmau....; noi atunci ne-am considerat ‘fondatorii’ noii societati profesionale, eram entuziasti si naivi in credinta noastra ca este suficient sa vrei... fara a stii sa este absolut nevoie si sa poti !

Dupa multe labirinturi birocratice SPEFSR a capatat statutul de persoana juridica dar la sedinta inaugurala, din sala s-a ridicat un revolutionar celebru (prof. Nicolae ?) si a dat primul ‘uperkut’ abia infiintatei asociatii, colegiale in fond, contestand pe cei aflati la prezidiu, probabil confundati de acest coleg cu 'prezidiumul' CC PCR si de recentul disparut N. Ceausescu, asta era psihoza zilelor acelea ....

In aceste conditii, fondatorii, au cam facut ‘un pas inapoi’ si astfel au invitat pe contestatari sa continuie dansii treaba – ori acest lucru nu s-a facut si era de asteptat ..., eu stiam zicala “este mai usor sa darami decat sa construiesti”.

Acum la atata timp de la ‘evenimente’ nefaste, aparute exact la ‘nasterea’ SPEFSR, revin cu aceiasi chemare de a ne reuni in sanul SPEFSR si astfel sa devenim si noi mai vizibili si mai eficienti, mai ales in speta numita ‘organizarea ‘ EFS.

Din pacate, eu nu am deprinderea de a deveni ‘sef’ in ciuda ‘manuielelor’ altora, asa ca ma rezum doar sa lansez campania, fara dorinta de a deveni si seful acesteia.

Campania mea, este deja in cadrul SPEFSR infiintata si are ca obiectiv – initierea unui moment de varf anual intiutlat, sper eu – sugestiv = “GALA PALESTRIKA”.

In speranta ca cineva dintre noi, cu abilitati autentice de leader poate sa se implice decisiv – ‘Gala Palestrika’ poate deveni, sinonim cu ‘Gala Uniter’, un moment solemn si echitabil de analiza si proiectare a fenomenului atat de frumos..., ba nu – atat de lung, descris la inceputul materialului meu, scuze.

Fiind la ora inceputurilor frumoase eu va invit a va reaminti de SPEFSR si de ‘Gala Palestrika’ urandu-va traditionalul ‘La multi ani !’

"ABOUT SWIMMING" universal compendiu

Vizitatorii la 31 dec 2010 [12 Iulie > 31 Dec. 2010]
Visitors to December 31, 2010 [July 12> December 31. 2010]

Dragii mei prieteni ‘de peste mari si zari’ .....,

Iata aici palmaresul nostru in perioada 12 iunie -31 Decembrie 2010; sunt vizitatori din cele mai neasteptate tari sau orase, in care, probabil, ca am devenit cunoscut iar voua va trimit urarea aceasta de sfarsit de an “LA MULTI ANI 2011 !”

As tare bucuros daca ati coresponda cu mine, fie pe caseta cu ‘comentarii’ fie la adresa de email: ‘scanave [ a ] yahoo.com’,

Am atatea lucruri sa va spun si sa discutam ca am putea scrie o importanta carte ‘Despre inot...’ autori fiind toti vizitatorii care ma contacteaza si isi imi spun parerile lor.

Cartea asta ar putea fi un fel de enciclopedie multinationala in care experienta fiecaruia sa poata ajuta la dezvoltarea inotului sportiv, asa cum si-a propus, inca din 1908, FINA, la momentul infiintarii ei.

Inchei cu invitatia mea si indemnul de a ne uni si cunoaste cat mai bine unii cu altii..., va fi o lucrare interesanta pentru noi toti si chiar pentru generatiile viitoare.

Cu plecaciune
Prof. Mircea Olaru 30 dec. 2010, Bucuresti

My dear friends ‘overseas and horizons’ .....,

Here's our record during June 12 -31 December 2010, are visitors in the most unexpected countries or cities, which probably became known and I will send to you this year-end greeting "Happy New Year 2011!"

I would very glad if you correspond with me either on the box 'comment' or email address: 'scanave [a] yahoo.com'

I have so many things to say and talk that I could write an important book 'About swimming ...' authors are all visitors to contact me and they tell me their opinions.

This book could be a kind of multinational encyclopedia that each experience, story can help develop swimming sports, just as proposed, since 1908, FINA, to its founding moment.

Close with my invitation and urge to unite and gain a better understanding with each other ... it will be an interesting job for us all and even for future generations.

Yours
Prof. Mircea Olaru
