re: Arkansas health and fitness thread

Elbow injury maybe? Not sure where the pain is exactly but try icing.

Ice 20 on and 20 off.

Be careful bc I had a elbow injury from lifting a weight wrong and it put me out of commission as far as working my arms for about 4 months. They are no joke

I lifted to exhaustion, almost always to the point where I could barely move body parts for 2 days.

That's what we usually do. High reps with as heavy as you can go.

Deal

they have an indoor track upstairs, weights, machines, 8 treadmills, 8 ellipticals, 3 basketball courts, swimming pools, locker rooms, showers

I'm intrigued.

The Boys and Girls Club facility is a gem out there. I'm actually really excited to being able to move back to NWA. That place and the Jones Center is one of the reasons.

I don't talk about it this ever, because it depresses me from the lack of interest in sporting good companies to make my ball design, but I've invented a competitive sport. Chartered the International Federation, ratified rules, designed a specific use court, a scoring system, designed a scoresheet to keep stats and point by point scoring.

Grassroots at the after school program level is my introduction plan along with a small pro tournament circruit which is just me and my buddies playing it, but it helps build a history and a timeline for the sport. I've gotten some interest from the Chicago Public School system but alas without being able to make my balls, it's almost pointless because the game doesn't play the same with substitute balls and I have nothing tangible to sell and market and profit from to drive the growth.

This sport however, is an arse beater. Lots of constant running and sprinting, it melts the lbs off playing a couple times a week. Would love to teach anyone how to play or organize a team building activity or mini tournament for your church or company. I actually teach life building concepts with how the game is played and the rules and I call "The Spirit of the Game."

Oh yea anyone can play, we've adapted tennis courts so you can play solo or 2 or 3 to a team. It has elements of tennis, handball, and volleyball. International rules bring in a bit of soccer where you can use your feet and kick the ball. So there's a bit of Sepak Takraw too. It's super fast paced and lots of fun. We always have a little crowd of spectators form when we play.

I've been racking my brain on how to increase the court to play on basketball floors and use the existing infrastructure in the United States and making it a team sport since team sports draw larger crowds and are naturally easier to cheer for a team representing a community or school more so than an individual sport.


I've got some buddies in DFW, I've kicked around doing events at country clubs as a way to get it in front of wealthier more active and sporty folks that might see their kid really enjoy it and be interested in making an investment or helping connect with me people that can forward the sport.

Would be easier to email the pdf.

I am going to have to take a break from working out for a few weeks because I had a suspicious mole removed from the side of my chest. They cut a 1 cm hole in me and sewed it up, and told me to take it easy and avoid lifting anything heavy for a while so it can heal.
