Tune ups

Every car has a maintenance schedule. Every 8000km, I have to perform the recommended maintenance, whether it be something as simple as changing the oil and filter, or a little more in-depth, like inspecting the exhaust and suspension system.

If I don’t perform the maintenance when it’s scheduled and keep putting it off, then trouble will be coming my way. If I don’t replace the oil for 50,000km, my engine might seize and I’ll be shit of out luck – and money.

Your body is a machine, and it needs some basic maintenance on a regular basis as well.

Daily maintenance includes – properly warming up, stretching, lacrosse ball work, foam rolling, staying hydrated, eating well, sleeping well, etc.

Monthly maintenance includes – massage therapy, physiotherapy, chiropractic care, etc.

Annual maintenance includes – body composition tests, blood work (to check progress), etc.

I would much rather spend the extra time and money keeping my body tuned up, than waiting for an injury to happen. If I keep putting off the maintenance, it will end up costing me twice as much anyway.

Friday’s QOD

January 27, 2012 120 comments

Do you have a pre-workout ritual or routine?

Death by Thrusters with a twist (95/65#)

On the first minute perform 1 thruster, on the second minute perform 2 thrusters, 3 on the third and so on until you cannot finish the thrusters in the minute. Once you fail to complete the number of thrusters on that minute, begin the next minute again at 1 thruster and so on for the duration until the 20th minute. The workout lasts 20 minutes for everyone.

Score is total thrusters completed.
