How My Yardwork is the Best Gym

Yardwork

Man, do I hate yardwork. I’m serious. Ask my parents about the amount of griping I did when it was time to mow the lawn or what have you. I still can’t stand it, either. One of the most irritating things for me is to have to mow, or weed,…

Grip strength. With the influx of TV shows like American Ninja Warrior (which we talked about on an #OCRChat a while back) and more people wanting to try out the great challenges that such shows hold, obstacles with various grip challenges have been popping up at more races for the past…

Put your mobility on the line – the Slackline!

Trying the Slackline

I’ve got a new toy – and it’s one that’s going to help with my OCR skills almost directly. Last week, I finally ordered something that I’ve been wanting to get for a while, and on Friday my first slackline kit arrived.  And I couldn’t be more pleased. What’s a…

Tracking All-Day Habits With Fitbit!

Fitbit Charge HR

We’ve talked a lot about creating great habits and ways to keep your movement going throughout the day on this page, and by gum, we’re about to do it a bit more. And it’s all because of two habit-formation apps that I’ve come across lately.  Well, one that I’ve had…

Don’t Make These New OCR Racer Mistakes (Part 1)!

hill running

It’s sort of funny – every obstacle course race I’ve ever run, I’ve seen new racers who talk about the stuff they wish they had done to prepare for the event, and they are always the same things. Some of these folks are very much people who thought they were…

Shake Your Way to Stress Relief?

Shaking dog

When I was younger, I’ve mentioned before, I was a competitive swimmer. The competitive swimming world is a fairly small one, and you’d frequently find yourself swimming against a lot of the same people from meet to meet.  There was this one fellow that I remember distinctly who, when he…

Movement Lessons from an Age-Group Swim Meet

Swim Meet

I’ve mentioned before that my wife is an age-group swim coach for our local YMCA. It’s a part-time gig that she loves, and when it came up I encouraged her to take it because she does love it so much and I knew she missed having swimming in her life (she…

When Progress Sneaks Up On You

the sky is the limit

Progress is a tricky thing. Sometimes we can track it with numbers – race times, distance run, weight lifted, number of reps completed, etc.  And sometimes it’s more nebulous than that. When you’re a movement-based person like I am, who doesn’t so much “work out” as much as I go…
