Some friends had planned to cycle 100Km (that’s 60 miles if we were in the USA) to celebrate the 100th anniversary of our church. I was invited to participate largely because I’m always talking about fitness through running. So “Of course your heart and lungs will be ready; so will your legs”, they said.

I’d learned to ride a bicycle as a boy, and have ridden from time to time as an adult. But I had not set foot on pedal for several years. Could I live up to my friends’ expectations?

That’s the subject of “Fortunately Running is Cross-Training for Cycling“. Hopefully the title does not give away too much of the story.

Fitness and Cross-Training, Running and Bicycling

In fact, NF Cure capsules do levitra professional samples not provide the natural erection feeling. Then, on a daily basis, I get to cheap viagra tablet the one big answer.

Normally “cross-training” means that a person pursues a secondary sport to become more fit for a primary sport. A runner might bicycle, for example, to strengthen her quadriceps and improve her aerobic capacity for running uphill, while saving her knees from excessive pounding on pavement as a runner.

It happens that my experience, related in that DeHaan Fitness blog post, was that my primary training, running, was helpful for a one-off event in the different discipline of bicycling.

In general, both basic fitness and high-performance athletic training can benefit from some cross-training. It helps avoid repetitive stress injuries and boredom.

It just happens that two articles were published today. There really is nothing about keeping reindeer warm or fit.

Other People Do Discuss Reindeer Exercise

(Updated March 6, 2013): Since so many people search for “reindeer exercise” and find this post, let me link you to the two top contenders for this unusual subject.

1. “Reindeer Exercise Video” has a youngster “demonstrate exercise as Clarice the Reindeer”.
2. “Star the Reindeer” gets her exercise by walking through Anchorage, Alaska.

You could put Rudolph through his reindeer exercise paces on a Nintendo platform; there are Canadian Rudoph video games and American video games for Rudolph.

Finally, if you want to see European reindeer in Toronto, allow me to recommend “Tundra Trek” at the Metro Toronto Zoo.

Super Reindeer

“The Reindeer Superpower: Ultraviolet Vision” was published a day after I submitted it to one now-defunct online science magazine. A recent news article reported that reindeer can see ultraviolet light, a surprising advantage for this arctic herbivore to survive.

Exercise and the Warm Up Paradox

My phrase for it is the “warm up paradox”: cold muscles should not exercise hard, but only exercise warms up the muscles. My “Warming Up To Exercise” article in DeHaan Fitness… presents five tips to safely warm up before exercise.

This article also was triggered by reading a news report about how much an elite sprint athlete warms up just before a competition. I discuss those findings in my article, although my focus is on the amateur, recreational or health-oriented athlete.

Extra Publicity

Of course, I also posted a note about these articles in “Two Articles and Two Subjects on One Day“.
