Thing is, I'll have to row without moving my legs. As soon as I use my legs, my ankle twists and it hurts. So basically, it's just my arms going back and forth.
AT the moment I'm doing full body strength training 3 times a week with a legit core session each time. Will be swopping some of those sessions with pilates or yoga from next week, as I'm starting to look like a body builder. MJ, I know the rowing can be lekker tough, but I'll only be using my arms. Can't use my legs to go back and forth. Maar dis seker maar al wat ek kan doen.
I hurt my ankle with action cricket and haven't been able to run or cycle for more than 4 weeks now. I can't use the stepper or eliptical trainer at the gym and also can't swim. What can I do to stay fit? The only thing I can do is sit still on a rowing machine and row, but that's only upper body and can get really boring. (NOt maried, so I can't do that other thing as well )
I'll do this epic race thingy. I'll be able to pay the race entry fee by next week. Just waiting for a friend who still owe me money. I paid for his drinks this weekend. I am also quite competitive. Have been riding for a while now on my raleigh(Got it from makro) and have done my first long ride(2 hours) this weekend. Managed to do 25km on district roads. I usually train between 2 and 3 hours a week, but once I stop drinking and smoking I will be able to manage up to 4hours a week.
I'm a minimalist on the bike, so the less I carry with me the better and my tube is already taped to the seatpost. That's the only reason I don't take plugs with me
What is not wanting to spend much? My first bike I wanted to spend "much". Now my next wheelset will be more than that and this time I don't want to spend much. So give a budget. And also lightweight and strong should not be used in the same sentence. Do you want racing wheels, training wheels or all round wheels? Buying from ebay is not a bad idea, but I would read some reviews before buying.
Wanted to try new lube for some time now. Couple of questions: I use dry wax based squirt at the moment on my mtb and road during winter and summer(wet) conditions. For what conditions can chain L be used? What I like about the wax based dry lube is that I can touch the chain without getting black chain marks on my hands. How is chain L? CanI use chain L on my derailleur etc?
Have u ever heard of cable rub? Destroying your frame, your pretty carbon frame. My gear and brake cables almost rubbed through my fork on my cervelo before I realised it and got some frame patches.
A while ago someone was looking for frame patches and me as well. Warning: Don't buy the expensive ones from who-ever with the logos and stuff on if you want something plain and simple AND cheap. I bought this from a motorbike shop. It's 2 cheets and it only cost me R180. Anyone wanna buy a sheet from me for R90
We were in the same class in High School. I remember when he got his first set of drums, it wasn't long before he could play almost anything and he is self learned.
