An honest realization must precede the evident answer to ‘preventing disasters’ on Chomolungma (aka; Mt. Everest). No one that uses supplemental oxygen on a peak actually climbs that peak. Using oxygen falsely ‘lowers’ the elevation and subjective dangers of the natural peak to the fitness capacity of the perpetrator…errr, ‘climber.’
Precious Ones Along The Path….aging IS easy!!! it’s the Attachment to Youth that is hard!
I wonder if you remember teaching me my first yoga pose…in your driveway at a garage sale of yours 5 years ago?!
I finally got into doing yoga over a year ago and have not stopped! love it!
Yogi Josh and i just agreed to a summer’s worth of WF Online Training to prepare him for his next yogic Mission…ilg trusts my Sangha – YOU – will once again cOMe through him as i attempt to do my best to prepare him for an incredible Tapasaya..
“If you are quiet enough you will hear the flow of the Universe. You will feel its rhythm. Go with this flow…happiness lies ahead…”
this recent Paleolithic sensationalism which is based on consuming the often toxic flesh (in both spiritual and physical aspects) of today’s animals (ala Cordain) to mimic the composition of the “evolutionary diet” is a bad joke at best. There are so many unAwakened flaws in this approach, that I could write a fetching, sensationalistic (and probably best-selling) book on the imbecilic basis of attempting to convince mainstream Americans that they can and should eat anciently.
i took this pic from about mile 7.5 up our 10 mile dirt road climb on our road bike during the Tuesday Night World’s Ride this evening here in Durango…a definite A-list of the local pro’s…i didn’t finish last…second to last, but not last! that little green blob in the center of this pic is the Animas River Valley…that is how high up we climb on this 3,000′ climb before shaking our molars out on the washboard descent and then roaring back to town at 23mph!
Which DVD should I get?!! I was reminded this weekend by the Pilates instructor at the booth next to ours at an expo we were at that my flat feet, ankles rolling in, hip flexor tightness, etc., is making my inner thigh muscles weak. I know that, and that’s why they hurt like hell if I run 4-5 miles!

These teachings are the "Rasas" or "sap" of Wholistic Fitness. You’ll find insights to ponder, student chi to keep your own chi topped off, and plenty of proven training techniques to test on your own body, mind, and spirit! Also, you’ll find my very popular Race Reports, and news of our Sangha’s (community’s) latest transpersonal fitness adventures!
You have access to thousands of posts going all the way back to 2002. The Archives makes for ideal Svadhyaya, and if you don’t know what that important term means ... all the more reason to dive into these amazing WF Scriptural Recordings!
