The darker the berries , the sweeter the juice. If you lift heavy eat a lot of protein. I highly recommend a daily dose of pure organic honey. It's very healthy and it's been known to have an affect on controlling and decreasing cancerous cells. I would recommend investing into a good quality juicer and just experiment.

I haven't had honey in forever, and actually just added it to my list earlier today. Would be so much better to start my days with some complex sugars rather than black coffee and contempt for my fellow motorists.

so uhhh....kale n shit...amirite? made kale salad with chopped tomatos and squeezed some lemon juice on that shit. pretty decent.

Running is something you have to make exciting. If you trot around doing 10+ minute miles or (worse) use a treadmill in a gym, don't be surprised when the fabled "runner's high" fails to materialise. I personally treat running as a personal challenge, something I enforce with a simple rule: I can never run less distance than previously. I must always run as far as my previous longest distance. This means running is constantly imbued with a sense of challenge and achievement - the goal is always to break your previous best. Running less distance than my previous best is only acceptable if I beat my previous best time, or if the route is notably more punishing in terms of elevation. The accomplishment of breaking a previous record gives me a feel-good rush. I also plan my routes so they end with a final sprint, where I can just go all-out no matter how exhausted. This explosive end to a run is guaranteed to leave me with my heart thumping and adrenaline coursing, rather than an insipid stumble across the finishing line.

The second half of your post is clearly just provocative nonsense.

Kale chips, yo. Them shits are the bomb.



Off to my basement to do my first workout in months. Pretty pumped! Sucks that it's raining, kinda in the mood for a run. Oh well. :/

I've been slowly moving from intervals to distance running/jogging (slowing down my intervals but going much further). Its hard, mainly cause my stride at a good jogging pace sucks ass. I come down really flat footed and before my stamina runs out my feet are what make me slow down.

Oh well, push through the pain.

The best time to run is in the rain at night. It's awesome. Proper pissing it down, you can't beat it.

I used to have this problem. I'd get really bad shin splints because I have really flat feet. Go see a podiatrist. I had custom orthotics made that help immensely.

It's about fixing your technique and also building up your distance slowly. Go from fuck all to 8km quickly and your bones are not used to the impact.

Density will increase. Squat and deadlifts will help your running too.

No. People with flat feet (myself especially) have a tendency for their ankles to pronate while running.



With each step, the lack of arch allows the ankle to roll to the inside rather than being kept in line how they normally are for people with normal arches. This puts a lot of extra strain on the ankles, along with the rest of the leg. This isn't something that technique can fix. Without the proper support, all the proper technique in the world won't make any difference.

If it was warm out I wouldn't have a problem with it - I'm far too much of an amateur to try it in 11 degree fall weather though.

You should see a podiatrist then. It's really bad for your ankles.

You never mentioned flat feet

Good luck with the insoles all the same!

Bam. wiener'd.

Well I am pretty sure I am not actually flat footed, I do have a significant arch and I did one of those things that shows where most of your weight rests in your foot and it showed a fairly significant arch as well, not much pronating.

Its just when I am not running at a nice quick stride its more like I am stomping my foot down flat, instead of rolling through the stride like I am when going quickly. I am trying to work on that though, its just hard... Also better breathing technique.

Sometimes I think that maybe my natural jogging stride is longer and its closer to a full on run than it is a slower jog... I don't know though.

But yea, dead lifts have def helped with it, especially in the knees and shins. Its literally the bottom of my feet that begin to hurt, and then as I slow down and cool down it feels like my feet have swollen up for like 5 minutes (I have to walk it out for that amount of time before my feet feel normal again).

It sounds as if you run like a gay.

I forgot how it feels to wake up the day after a workout.

Wait is it the good kind of waking up like after you've been doing it for a while, or the "i wish this was from a night of drinking, ouch my body" kind of wake up?

I stand corrected!

I was dealing with shin splints, but I changed my running to a little more deliberate and slower style and just kept running, it has stopped hurting and I'm feeling stronger.

I can't say I've ever felt the latter.
