Workouts With Zero Equipment

I know we have talked about the Deck of Cards a lot on this podcast, but I want to give you some variations of the Deck of Cards that you can do. No matter how many times I talk about it I continue to get questions about it, so lets go over it one more time. In an average deck of cards you have for suits (hearts, spades, diamonds, and clubs). Face cards in this deck equal 10 and aces equal 11 or 1 if you need to scale it back. So from this point I will assign an exercise to each suit (for example burpees|spades, pushups|clubs, sit-ups|hearts, and squats|diamonds. So if you turn over a 3 of spades, that is 3 burpees, but a Queen of clubs would be 10 pushups.

Sleep: The Foundation Of Health

After my last podcast, Sleep - One Of The Key Pillars Of Health, I got a lot of emails from people wanting to know more. So I went back and read this book by Dr. Matthew Walker who is a Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, and Director of the Center for Human Sleep Science. He is also the lead sleep scientist at Google. He wrote a book called Why We Sleep and it has completely changed my perspective on sleep.

Isometric Dice

I’ve been playing around with the Dice Games recently and seeing how creative I can be. Recently my wrist has been bothering me so I decided to rest it and do some isometric (static) exercises. I mostly focused on exercising my core so I did the following:

Sleep - One Of The Key Pillars Of Health

Something I have often disregarded and, I think is probably one of the most commonly sacrificed pillars of health, is sleep. The more I have learned about sleep recently, the more I have been concerned and aware about my sleeping habits and I believe that will be true for you as well. If you learn more about the benefits and advantages of sleep, you might begin to be weary of how much you are sleeping.

Get In Shape For Tarpon Fishing

I got a question from a listener about how someone might get in better shape to prepare for their Tarpon trip. This could easily be used for any flats fishing trip. It might seem silly to some to think that fishing requires fitness, but most people don’t stand up all day in the hot sun. Leg strength, lower back strength, and proper nutrition and hydration can go a long way to helping you to enjoy your trip much more.

2 Ways To Prevent Your Push Pole From Breaking When You Stake Out

Right now it is tarpon season, and something you might notice is a lot of guides out there with a push pole that they are using to direct the boat towards the fish and also using to stop the boat. This is called “staking out” and it is very effective and very easy to mess up and break your push pole. These poles are made of high-end graphite and can break easily if there is too much strain put on them, and they are expensive so you really don’t want to break them. Also, since I use Power Poles for anchoring in shallow water, it is important to know that there are some cases when I will still stake out with a push pole because there are areas where I can’t use the Power Poles.
