Farewell 2010. Hello 2011! Challenges, opportunities, failure, success, valleys and mountaintops – I encountered a mix of those as well as everyone who reads this post (and like every year before). For the exercise side of my life, the opportunities and successes jump to the front of my mind. The change-up in exercise and nutrition [...]

Summary If you’re an aerobic athlete (runner, swimmer, cyclist, triathlete) who’s reached a plateau, has found more miles does not translate into success and wonders if strength training might help – please read. I’m not offering a quick fix, food gimmick, shake, or simple trick. Over the last year I’ve ventured into a different way [...]
Hit 1,000 miles in 2010 today
Posted: August 11, 2010 by David Kohrell in Crossfit, Cycling, Marathons, P90x, Rowing, Running, Strength Training, Swimming, TriathlonsTags: Crossfit, goals, Triathlon
The first 1,000 miles have come in quite a bit differently from previous years. Running miles are 2/3 of normal, but cycling, swimming, hiking/walking and rowing are higher (or in the case of rowing a first). The benefits of the diversity are sinking in: alternating workouts to reduce stress, using workouts for the season [...]

Been thinking about what is both a “tweak” and significant revolution in how I’m training now, versus 1992-2008. The “goals for 2010″ blog shared a bit of that. Just hit me as I posted a reply to a @fb friend that there’s a bit more profund change. At the root of this transformation journey is [...]
Exercise Goals and Measurements

Goals and measurements, a topic that once again blends in some management concepts (TAPUniversity is a learning portal that supports management and technology so it’s fitting). The brain thrives in goal setting situations. Often it’s the mental part of the game that keeps exercise programs on target, or causes them to slip. So put on [...]

The following article from WebMD helps and encourages anyone beginning an exercise program or anyone who’s been in their program for years. Sore muscles will occur – call it the acute pain of overcoming inertia. I was thinking of this very topic during a 20 mile run today – which was relatively pain free. There [...]
