Countdown to Lake Placid Ironman
Hi folks!
Another running track for FitOldDog in transit.
Funny how we forget stuff. As an older guy I’m familiar with the value of Kegel exercises, having a routine that does not need describing in detail. As an older athlete, routine can be critical. For instance, I need a similar routine for single leg calf raises. Whilst developing our Plantar Fasciitis Treatment Method, I incorporated single calf raises into one of the videos that supports our e-book. This approach is similar to the recommendation of Deepak Chopra for maintaining optimal eye health - regular exercise, which makes a lot of sense. It seems as though one has to be constantly vigilant for certain areas of your body as you age. Our foot arches are one such area, and regular calf raises will keep them in fine fettle, if combined with other exercises designed to activate this complex biomechanical system.
Workout:
Single leg calf raises: 250 on each leg, in sets of 10 - 30, a few sets at each rest stop.
Run: 5 x 200 yard pickups at decent pace.
