Dressing for Cold Weather Cycling, From Performance Bicycle – YouTube
I don’t ride if it’s below 55 degrees. I’ve tried several times at around 45 to 50 degree weather and I was miserable each time. But after watching this video I realize that I wasn’t wearing the optimal gear, so for Performance Bicycle’s Cyber Monday sale I bought some new stuff, which you can see in the photo above. I already had a few of those things shown in the photo just so you know I didn’t go nuts in the store, but I did buy a long-sleeve jersey, a balaclava and windproof bike jacket. I rode my bike yesterday and it worked out pretty well! It was 52 degrees, so I still need to test it around 45 degrees or less, but I definitely noticed a difference compared to my previous cold-weather rides.
Explosive Back: The Science Of Back Training
This article starts with a ton of information on the anatomy of the back, but the best part of this post are the tips halfway down the page. I love the tip mentioned here from Dorian Yates – If you can’t hold a row for at least one second at the midpoint, you’re using too much momentum. Drop the weight and do it right.
Never, Ever Give Up. Arthur’s Inspirational Transformation! – YouTube
This one’s a tearjerker. Arthur gave up all hope of ever living a normal life after suffering back and knee injuries as a paratrooper earlier in life. His doctors told him that he’d never walk/run again. WCW Wrestler, Diamond Dallas Page, now known as DDP proved those doctors wrong, by putting Arthur on the DDP Yoga system that he personally created. I didn’t know DDP had his own program, but it looks like it works.

I love this tip! I always have leftover rice and I never know what to do with it, so I usually toss it into a burrito or throw some soy sauce all over it and finish it up. I can’t wait to try this.
The Benefits Of Chili & The Best Vegan Chili Recipe You Can’t Resist
I can’t vouch for this chili just yet because I don’t have the black eye peas or chickpeas to make it yet, but I’ll be trying it soon. I don’t usually care for chickpeas all that much, although I don’t hate them, so we’ll see. Even without chickpeas, it looks like a solid recipe.
12 REAL Fitness Professionals You Need to Know
I agree with everyone in this list. I already follow a few of these people, for example Kelly Starrett, Mark Sisson, and Martin Berkhan, but I now follow pretty much all of them. If they have blogs, YouTube channels or Facebook pages, they’ve been added to my feed reader.
Google trekker captures Grand Canyon’s beauty – YouTube
Google Maps is expanding to hiking trails! I love this idea. Trails can sometimes be a little more difficult than expected, so I think something like this would be extremely beneficial. It’s a great way to plan a hike too. You can seek out spots to rest or have picnics. You can find areas you want to avoid. Or maybe stopping points where you want to turn back. If the weather takes a turn for the worst, you can decide on if you want to keep going based on the knowledge of how much trail is left to climb. There are so many ways this can be useful.
