🧘🏼‍♂️🤾🏻‍♀️Getting Sweaty Again: The 3rd Circuit 🚴🏼‍♂️🏋🏼‍♀️

[deft]

Do you find that you use your upper body too? I’m trying to picture what I know about roller derbies (which is very limited), and I’m wondering if your arms get tired too? I bet it’s a good core workout also! How often do you meet during the week?

Forgive me if you’ve already answered these questions in the past. I can’t remember if you already mentioned this.

Is it pervy to find roller derbies hot? Rolling, grappling, barging, tumbling… fit women tussling…

No, I don’t think that’s pervy! I mean, it *is* hot!

That brings up a good question:

What is the sexiest sport to watch and why?

Beach volleyball because bare flesh… but tennis because tennis players are just all-round athletically hottt… flexible, powerful, nimble… and, also, legs

Yeah volleyball is hot. And so difficult!! I don’t see how only two people cover so much area. It’s amazing to watch.

I would think for women to watch it would be fishing. Where else can a guy sling his pole around all over the place looking for a nice pc of Bass

This is something I didn't expect on skates- it's not so much my arms, but my shoulders. The position we skate in is similar to a deadlift stance, so maintaining shoulders back and arms tucked in for 90 minutes can get tiring. The only other reason they get sore is from falling, but after learning how to fall properly that is slowly decreasing.

It is an amazing core workout since you're in a squat, trying to maintain balance and speed at once. I feel most of the soreness in my inner thighs and quads right now.

We have practices once a week, but on another night of the week the team practices and us trainees are allowed to come and practice skills along the periphery of the rink.

I agree with SB, it's not pervy to me but it's definitely sexy. These ladies are so strong and such great skaters. I'm there because I love to skate, but that is a nice bonus.

Men's soccer, or rugby... Those legs, and that sweat.

Last night was derby! I had a blast. My inner thighs were screaming last night so I ended up doing some yoga stretching for about 30 minutes after I got home because I could barely move my legs lol.

I got a fist bump from the coach on some of my techniques which have improved since last week so that was validating . I am feeling more comfortable on quad skates on a slippery rink, compared to inline skates on the road. I love that the women in my group are from all walks of life, varied ages, shapes and sizes. These women as badasses and I'm looking forward to next week already!

Great that you had a wonderful time and got positive feedback from your coach. Stretching is a good way to cool down and let some of the tension dissolve. Might ask others on your squad for their advice ... I'm betting they have a range of options for you to consider.

I've been doing a lot of yoga after practices and that is definitely helpful!

Does anyone else do yoga with Adrienne? I love her. I did this session tonight. I loved it because it helped me focus on balance and muscle control on each side of my body.

 

[FormerAllStar2]

Did a swim workout for the first time in forever yesterday…And without shoulder pain! Hooray!
4-mile interval run today. Good start to the week.

Cataract surgery on both eyes but today went for a 12 mile bike ride. Wonderful sights and colors.

Can anyone recommend a protein powder that doesn’t use Stevia?

I cannot stand the taste.

Something reasonably palatable. Vegan preferred, but not required. I don’t mind spending money.

Thank you.

Pure protein. It is not vegan though. This is one that comes recommended to me by my PT.

I’d be curious about other recommendations though.

Look up Blonyx, not vegan and has egg protein. They only do chocolate and it’s not terribly sweet like other protein powders. Worth the money too

[Endless_Night]

Thank you, ladies! I'll check those out. The Blonyx sounds particularly attractive. No too sweet sounds right up my alley. I have yet to find one that is not just - blech, and hideously sweet. Even without Stevia.

I felt the same way. I tried some over the years and I couldn’t make myself drink them until I was suggested this one by my coach.

Good luck Endless!

I use the vanilla flavored Orgain protein powder.

People seem to like that one, but it has stevia. I just . . . can't.

Sooooo overly sweet.


(But thank you for sharing!)

Getting back on the bike again. Mountain bike and it’s getting hot enough for the snakes to be out as well.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

It's 90 degrees out this morning. I walked my son to school and after 20 minutes I was drenched in sweat. That qualifies for this thread, right?
Summer is the worst.

This is my favorite protein powder. I use both the vanilla and chocolate.

Sorry about that! Thought it was stevia-free.

4 mile interval this morning. Slightly cooler out thanks to the hurricane.

Oooh. This looks exciting. Do you have a preferred flavor?

Gah! If affected by hurricane temps you can't be too far away from me.

I never run outside in the July and August heat.

You're hardcore.
