Athletics and fitness are the essential ingredients for your body to live a long and healthy life.
Pints & Parkruns: Tychy
I picked a good day to visit Tychy parkrun. It was the 200th edition, so there was a celebration in the air. For a first-timer, especially one who doesn’t speak Polish, that meant a reassuringly large turn-out. There was no danger of getting lost, even though the signposts around the park refer to an earlier version of the parkrun route.

Are Muscle Oxygen Sensors the Next Great Fitness Wearable?
On a common preparation ride in Spain's Sierra Nevada, Tokyo Olympics marathon champion Kristian Blummenfelt could begin close to Granada, at around 3,000 feet above ocean level, and finish as high as 10,000 feet. A critical mantra for Norway's reality beating marathon crew is power control — every exercise is neither more straightforward nor harder than whatever the mentor recommends. Be that as it may, the height change makes it hard to dial in the speed. As the air becomes more slender, consistently diminishing oxygen levels imply that pulse and power yield never again reliably demonstrate how hard the body is functioning. Lactate, which requires a little drop of blood, is too inconvenient an action to keep them on track. So Blummenfelt and his preparation accomplices depend on a generally dark and unheralded piece of wearable tech, one that the group activities' researcher and Olympic mentor, Olav Aleksander Bu, says has turned into an essential device in their preparation routine: a muscle-oxygen sensor.

The Amazing Science Behind Pilates

Pints & Parkruns: Durham
Durham is a fitting place to start this not particularly athletic journey. As a young child, devotedly following Olympics and World Championships on TV, I’d sneak into the university sports grounds to trot around the track or fling myself into the long jump pit. In my mind, I was Daley Thompson, and no lack of coordination or ability could shake that belief. Later, Maiden Castle formed the backdrop to school cross country runs, which ended any confidence in my sporting prowess.

Are Treadmills The Perfect Piece Of Exercise Equipment
Oh treadmill, how I love thee. I can always depend on my treadmill to achieve weight loss and muscle tone. I have had a couple of different treadmills through the years and I have always been able to attain my goals with this outstanding piece of equipment. I have gone from a dedicated runner, to couch potato, to overweight and back and the only variable that did not work all the time was me!

Avoiding Ski Knee Injuries
With the winter olympics just finishing up and ski season still with a few months to go, many will be tempted to get out on the snow and give the frost conditions a run out. It is worth remembering that skiing is an ‘extreme sport’ and this means that the potential for injury or an accident is high.

Snow Lessons
“Yes, sir,” I said to you in the Ski Patrol headquarters. We weren’t on a call. This wasn’t even a practice scenario- we were just hanging out. You weren’t my boss in that moment. I knew I’d made a mistake when you looked at me quizzically. It’d been the “yes, sir” of a white woman who was proud to afford a simple human dignity to a person of color. Now, thanks to you, I see that things like dignity and equality do not belong to white people. They are not ours to give like presents to Black people or anyone else. It’s evident through your actions what you believe, Leland: they’re gifts from God to all humanity.
