So, when age and/or injury creeps into an endurance athletes life? Fear not; there is always the call of the asphalt ribbons to be ridden!
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!
i mean, really…who do you know that is not only as fit as ilg at age 50, yet still is sooo in love with the
very same world-class whole-food herbs to this day as he was when he first began eating them 27 years ago?
pic; our kitchen counter contains our go-to SUNRIDER Whole Food Herbs, the ASEA Sacred Water, and the MAP Amino Acids…the Esteemed Nutritional Core of WF… all other dietary foods provide only calories, enjoyment, appreciation, and variety.
Though some of our WF Techniques are often blow off as being ‘too simple,’ ilg assures you that even practicing brushing your teeth in yogi squat, using your Non-Dominant Hand while reciting the WF Lifestyle Principles into the Blessed Mantra, functions extremely well as an Inner Protector to the Outer Worldly demons of hurried pace. The following email is from a non-formal student back East…she recently returned to eating the SUNRIDER Whole Food Herbs after she realized that her body was breaking down due to her high-paced lifestyle….
Allergies are unknown, at least overc(om)e, by stalwart WF Yogis who practice my Early Morning Ritual and follow the WF Nutritional Path
ilg knows a thing or two about overc(om)ing cramps…most of it? nutritional…some of it? biomechanical. the rest of it? karmic…cramping symbolizes samskaric work from prior lives left undone…read below for more
Dips, baby…1980’s style..this pic is from my first book; The Outdoor Athlete (1985)…at one point, ilg was able to do 5 sets of 10 Dips with 85lbs around my tiny waist at a bodyweight of 145…give me a few weeks and probably, even at age 50? i’d still come close…below, i answer a question about my “Quota Rule” in WF Strength Training…
wanted to ask you if you’d recommend any particular bike shop or more importantly bike trail that I shouldn’t miss. I’m sorry you’ve already moved or I’d buy you some grande burritos and beer after you kicked my ass on the trail…
