If you are new to the game of golf then you may be interested in some beginner golf swing instruction. There is so much information around, it can be quite daunting trying to figure out which instructions are suitable for a novice and which are more advanced.
There are lots of different types of instruction too, some aimed at techniques and styles and others aimed at fitness. It can be hard knowing which is the best for you to look at. One of the reasons that there are so many different types of information is because we all differ in the way that we learn and the aspects of our game that we need to improve.

Posted on September 12, 2008 - Filed Under Recreation and Sports | Leave a Comment
I have been a lover of racing all my life, but only one horse has ever captured my heart and that was “Dancing Brave”. It was not because the “brave one” won me a fair few pounds, it was just the sheer brilliance and style of the horse. Any horse that wins multiple group one races has got to be something special, but to do it from a mile up to a mile and a half takes some doing. Especially, when he won the “Guineas” at Newmarket, from what was to be a champion sprinter in waiting, “Green Desert”. Everyone with a racing brain, could see the reason he just got up to win, was because he was crying out for further, but would it be a mile and a quarter or a mile and a half? In my mind, there was no doubt that the horse would stay a mile and a half.

Posted on July 3, 2008 - Filed Under Recreation and Sports | Leave a Comment
Founded in 2004, the Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative (SASSI) has created a way for consumers, retailers and wholesalers to take a stand in support of awareness in South Africa. Years of over-fishing and poor management have caused the populations of many fish species to drop to dangerously low levels.
76% of the world’s fish stocks are now overexploited, meaning that restaurants and traders of all kinds need to take the control of the situation by learning about which species are in trouble and encourage others to do so as well.

Posted on June 2, 2008 - Filed Under Recreation and Sports | Leave a Comment
Most beginners to the sport of cycling assume that you just have to push hard down on the pedals in order to be effective, but they are misinformed. What results from this is what I like to call the “waddling duck,” pushing down side to side to move yourself forward. In fact, they only have about a quarter of the stroke perfected.
Without being too technical, to get maximum efficiency you should apply force perpendicular to the crank arm (the piece of metal connecting the pedal to the gears) throughout the circle made by the pedal. Trying to do this perfectly requires alot of practice and could drive your crazy, but breaking the circle up into fourths makes things more manageable. All you have to do is develop the motion and then practice it.

Let’s say that you had a friend that lived in another state and was considering changing schools based on what’s happening at his current school. Would you have a clear perspective on what a good training environment is supposed to be to help him make the right decision?
Each week, I receive emails from two types of grapplers; grapplers that love the places where they train and grapplers that hate it but refuse to leave for various reasons.
That led me to a burning question: are their warning signs for a bad training environment and what are they? And after careful thought, I created The Wise Grappler’s “10 Signs Your Training Environment Sucks” Checklist.

Every year, thousands of visitors set a course for Saginaw Bay, Michigan and the Great Lake Huron for vacation because Lake Huron walleye fishing is some of the best walleye fishing in the entire country.

I met with one of my new triathlon clients recently and noticed 7 things during a quick 5 minutes review of his triathlon bike (this was after I begged him to bring his bike to one of his swim training sessions). Hopefully you can learn from these 7 issues:
1. Basic triathlon bike maintenance. The first thing I noticed was his chain - it was rusty. Six drops of chain lube could have prevented this rust. Beginner triathletes often know little about basic bicycle maintenance. The chain should be cleaned when dirty and lubricated. Your local bike shop can give you some great suggestions about cleaning solutions and lubricants you can use on your triathlon bike.
