“The difference between ‘involvement’ and ‘commitment’ is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was ‘involved’ – the pig was ‘committed’.”

H2Outrageous
Some of you may have missed this in the winter time, but our gym tends to take on the temperature from outside and exaggerate it. Monday, the heat really gave us a preview of what we are in for this summer. The more we sweat in class, the more we are going to have to focus on hydrating ourselves. Consuming water before, during, and after training is essential for optimal performance and especially recovery.
Exercise should be started in a hydrated state, and consuming at least 1 pint of water 2 hours before activity provides optimal hydration and enough time to pass excess liquid. Fluid replacement during exercise should equal the volume lost in sweat, and you should start drinking water before sensing thirst. A lot of our workouts range from 6-12 Minutes in length. Being properly hydrated is essential for workouts like these because there isn’t much time within the workout to grab water, and the water we do consume will not make it through our system fast enough to benefit us. If you are feeling thirsty in a short and sweet Met-Con, you are already dehydrated! Fun fact to keep in mind when hydrating is that larger volumes, 8 fl. oz., empty from the stomach at a faster pace than small volumes, so chugging is preferred over sipping.
Post training hydration’s main task is preparing the body for the next workout. Each pound lost of sweat should be replaced with at least 1 pint of water. The Institute of Medicine Food and Nutrition Board recommends that women consume 91 ounces of water (about 11 x 8oz glasses) and 125 ounces for men (about 15.5 x 8 oz glasses). Buy a water bottle, decorate it with stickers, and carry around with you everywhere, especially to the gym!

Guys and Gals,
Nice work today on the lifting. Some of you may have noticed the tighter standards on the bench press that I was enforcing.
Specifically, if your hips come off the bench, then it’s a no lift. And if your spotter touches the bar during the actual press, then it’s a no lift. (Spotter helping the lifter unrack and re-rack the bar is perfectly fine and recommended).
These standards are in place to get you ready for any competition, as the judges there will not let you get away with any sloppy form!
Feel free to burn an effigy of me if you want, but when you’re done, strive for good form in your lifts!

bored in her first few years of elementary school. and some additional notes on LED
brightness ( http://ceolas.net/#li15ledax ). Deborah is a journalist from
Hamburg, Germany. In fact, to me, it seems that there’s never been a better time to get inolved with Facebook on a deeper level!
They just don’t care, and the City still only pays attention to
services for tourists and businessmen with deep pockets, assuming bus service is just for poor people who don’t count for
much anyway.
