Richmond Park Winter Training 2009/2010

Zed, I've been doing core strength exercises every day of my life for about 5 years, because of back problems (disc proplase, sciatica, nerve impingement) after a childhood gymnastic career that has left me a bit fucked. If you want some good pilates type exercises pm me.

Thanks all for the tips guys. I'm waiting to see another physio.

Off the bike, but trying to walk everywhere as that seems to be helping. I was in a pretty bad way yesterday, but much better today.

So.. catching up with all this having recently joined - are these rides in Richmond park still taking place?

Yep 9 am keep an eye on the thread and please read post 1.

I spelled it out, didn't I? You can't beat frts for core strength. I've been frtting 6x my own bodyweight since January.

4 days?

WTF are frts?

FRTS is wtf?

WTF is FTW?

Fuck the what, Greasy...

what time do you kids get there in the morning, going for a run on saturday I'll lock my bike up and swear at you.

I'll be at work as usual, but might knock out some frts beforehand, if I have time.

FTW is For the Win

And I wasn't even shouting at anyone

me am member. me are 19.

Swiss ball :
Plank 3x30sec, Reverse Plank 3X30sec, Supermans 3X12, Situps 3X12, One leg planks 3X12

Free standing:
Side lunges arms level hold 10 sec X5 each leg, Twisting lungs arms behind head turning towards back leg 10 sec X5 each leg, standing knee hold 10 sec X5 each leg, flying stand 10 sec X5 each leg, supermans 10 sec X5 each side, lunges with weights * 20

If you are an idiot and haven't done it for a while and do the complete routine it will give you DOMS like you would not believe :(

I am going to try this tonight... However, I couldn't find out what a flying stand is. Any explanations?

Cheers.

anyone out in the park tomorrow?

JD - possibly 0900...

Trying to decide if I do dynamo, hog hill or hillingdon tomorrow

Well no one here's gonna help you decide!

My back is still fcked, so no riding for me in the foreseeable....
