Brief workouts for runners: strength training Over the last few columns I have suggested a range of non-running workouts for runners that – combined with an effective running programme – should make you a better and stronger athlete. So far I've put together basic strength and core workouts, a dynamic warmup routine plus a range of routines for when you're unable to run. Now it's time for an intermediate programme that uses weights to improve strength. The plan As with most of the other workouts in this series, this workout is short but effective. As Farah told the Guardian earlier this year: "I was a lot weaker before. The science backs Farah up. Strength and core work can be very effective for runners. The routine Before any of these exercises are attempted please seek advice from a fitness professional and make sure that you begin with a sensible weight.

untitled Last week I was listening to the Inception soundtrack and flipping through the Wired Science Space Photo of the Day gallery, a collection of the best astronomical images on the web, hand-selected by the Wired Science staff. It was quite possibly the most dramatic thing my brain has ever comprehended, even more so than weddings and the Olympics and such. So I sent out the following tweet: And it got a lot of response. So I sent out another tweet, which @wired retweeted, asking Wired readers to pick the most dramatic/epic music they could find on Spotify, so we might build a playlist worthy of being the soundtrack to nebulas, dying stars, and swirling galaxies. This is that playlist. It’s by no means comprehensive. At the top of this post is a silent video slideshow we’ve put together to pair with the soundtrack if you want to sit back and give your clicker finger a rest, or feel free to click through your own selection of images. And we must insist you go full-screen on this one.

Create your own virtual writing retreat | Remembering English Sadly, lately my writing has taken a backseat to everything else. So last week, I decided that I would use the long holiday weekend for an unofficial writing retreat. “Unofficial” essentially means that I didn’t need to apply, travel, or formally do anything other than pledge to write — perfect for such a last-minute decision. When I mentioned this to my friend Wendy Call, an alumna of Hedgebrook, she too was up for the idea; she’d already been part of a more formal virtual retreat, Hedgebrook Writes (a brilliant idea). Writing time is precious and necessary, but let’s face it — we can’t always leave home; we can’t always plan ahead. It was a great weekend overall, and I learned a few things that will make my next one even better. - Just do it. - Gather your fellow writers together. - Clear the decks. - Create your space. - Stay offline. - Give yourself guidelines. - Afterward, assess the pros and cons, the highs and lows. - Schedule retreats often.

untitled Jello Dashboard Krav Maga NorgeHistorien Historien om Krav Maga og Imi Lichtenfeld (1910 - 1998 ) Imi Lichtenfeld ble født i Tjeckoslovakia i 1910. ganske bestemt i byen Bratislava. Hans far jobbet på sirkus bare fra en alder av 13 år og reiste rundt med dette i over 20 år der han opptrådte som sirkusets sterke mann. Han inviterte publikum ned i manesjen for deretter å utfordre de i bryting. Stort sett så vant han grunnet at han hadde lært seg selvforsvarsknep som kom godt med i en slik situasjon. Etter at han avsluttet sitt arbeide på sirkuset flyttet han tilbake til Bratislava der han begynte å arbeide som politi.Han åpnet også en skole for turnere, boksere og brytere. Imi skjønte snart at han hadde begrenset tid på å lære soldatene evnen til å kunne overleve i en kampsituasjon og det var nå at ideen bak KRAV MAGA ble født.

The 10 O’Clock Rule This is a nifty one, simple to implement and, in my experience, surprisingly effective. Set your watch to beep every night at 10 o’clock. When your watch goes off, get up that instant and prepare for morning. Whether you’re in the middle of watching a DVD, rushing to meet a work deadline, reading that one last blog entry, etc., get up and get rolling. Your Morning Prep Checklist In addition to brushing up, walking the dog, and otherwise getting ready for bed as usual, do as many morning tasks as you can ahead of time: Plan breakfast and make sure the fridge is stocked (if necessary, run out to the grocery store to stock up on milk, eggs, etc.) Once you’ve figured out which tasks can be done, write them down on an index card and keep it handy. Organize Your Space I inherited a lovely little stand for hanging out your outfit, wallet, and keys for the next day from my grandfather. This 10 o’clock routine might take anywhere between 30 minutes and an hour. Reap the Benefits Photo by jmv.
