Cycling performance workshop
There will be a cycling performance workshop on Monday, July 19 from 7:00 – 8:00pm at the Central High School cellar. The cellar is located near the front main entrance of the school. Take the stairs to your left down to the lower level and enter through the doors. The cellar will be on your left.
The workshop is intended to be a free discussion led by Parkland Cyclists President Kurt Glore. The discussion will cover what to do before, during and after your ride to get the most out of the experience. Kurt will go into what he does to prepare for a casual ride, training ride and race. The discussion will include what to eat, when to eat, what to drink and how much, what stretches to do and how to handle the post ride routine. The information comes from many print and web sources as well as professionals who have passed the information along since Kurt started racing competitively.
This workshop is intended to help cyclists at all levels get the most out of their rides. If you would like to attend please RSVP as seating is limited.
If you have any questions please send us an email.
Here’s to your Health with Rhonda Hubbard
- Local health and wellness expert Rhonda Hubbard
ON TRACK
If you’ve been using your healthy strategies to manage your weight and good health thru the winter months – congratulations on your accomplishments so far! You may have noticed that temptation is starting to decrease and your confidence is starting to increase. At this point it should be easier to make healthy choices. You can see that the word “deprivation” is not about giving up late night eating and sweets. You can see that “deprivation” is simply not giving yourself a healthy lifestyle that will lead to well-being. If you haven’t held faithful to your New Year Resolution for better health you might have already given in to temptation. If so, it’s never too late to get back on track. I encourage you not to lose sight of your success! The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary. It takes a little sweat and sacrifice to get what you want. Continue to think of yourself as a person who is committed to changing ( little steps at a time) and celebrate the successes that you have had! You can overcome this slip. If you can view your temptations and setbacks as learning opportunities rather than reasons for giving up your efforts you can manage your weight more effectively and move into better health. You know you are “recycling” if you are progressively learning from your setbacks and moving forward. It doesn’t do any good to get defensive or discouraged about your slips. Having a setback is a normal part of the change process. Celebrate the fact that you have taken action, figure out what went wrong, and learn from the experience.
