A coaches' take on getting results, diet and exercise trends, and dispelling common myths. Strength training and mountain biking. My two favorites. Thursday, March 21, 2013. Does caffeine increase performance? My mom was a coffee connoisseur; she had her own blend of preferred coffee beans that she ground fresh every morning. The sweet smell of fresh brewed coffee permeated the house and it smelled sooo goood. Sure, but then you don't get the caffeine buzz. That's what most told me. Maybe my infreque...

Fake health food claims. CBC Marketplace, a TV series that investigates shoddy shake down artists and false marketing claims, has turned their focus once again on food companies. Where does that vitamin C in the fruit roll-up come from? We want health food that tastes like candy. We want our fitness delivered either by a magica...

Rocks and Dirt: February 2012
http://rocksandirt.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 27, 2012. My brief ride with a Tour de France rider. Was going through a bunch of old files and came across some of my old flyers from when I taught safe cycling to kids and adults back in the late 80's - early 90's in Vancouver BC. The classes were usually close to or were sold out. I also taught repair courses, and Learn to Race courses. One was a charity ride from Vancouver to Harrison Hot Springs, a 120 k ride with some steep, hard rollers along the North side of the Fraser river.

Live Healthy: The Irony of Overeating

A coaches' take on getting results, diet and exercise trends, and dispelling common myths. Strength training and mountain biking. My two favorites. Friday, July 17, 2015. The Irony of Overeating. I eat what I want and that makes me feel good. What's wrong with that? There's a painful irony in that. That's whats wrong. Eating crap food and overeating overstimulates reward centers. This makes eating crap and overeating seem extra pleasant. It's why we perceive donuts as tasting really good. Those are stupi...

Live Healthy: Using BCAA's for performance update
http://rhinofitnesslivehealthy.blogspot.com/2015/04/using-bcaas-for-performance-update.html
A coaches' take on getting results, diet and exercise trends, and dispelling common myths. Strength training and mountain biking. My two favorites. Thursday, April 23, 2015. Using BCAA's for performance update. I forgot to take the protein supplements for one workout. Didn't make a difference. So I thought, might as well put a hold on taking them for a couple weeks and see what happens. Does this mean that BCAA's decrease performance? Performance naturally increases and decreases anyway. When you tra...

Second Hand Smoke vs Car Exhaust. There is no such thing as smokers rights. It's a euphemism. It's fake. It's a manipulative play on the more meaningful term, human rights. It's interesting that the right. So we're not really talking about a right. Here, more like righteousness. Funny how those two get mixed up. I'm not buying it.

Is sitting time killing us? Lot's of headlines over the past few years about the idea that the more we sit, the sicker we'll get and the closer to death we'll be. I've got a bit of a problem with this. Of course there is no way my personal experience can be a useful reference for a population. What I'm trying to do is tone down...

Yoga is bad for you, and I told you so. How many lies does your yoga instructor tell you? Hot yoga will detox your body via sweating (impossible, kidneys and liver work 24/7 removing toxins from our bodies, sweat is ineffective at doing this). Here's an article with a long laundry list of injuries and the reasons for them, that occ...
