Fun Cross Training Program

guest — Sat, 20 Nov 2010 22:28:04 GMT

Hi everyone!

I want to invite everyone to my weekend teacher trainings & workshops in my Flex & Flow Method cross training program. It has benefited many extreme runners, cyclists and yoga people.

It focuses on opening the hips, strengthening the core and increased range of motion in upper & lower body rotations. It is unlike almost all trainings out there as it is low impact yet high cardio. We practice iso & plyometric moves, core stabalization & extension WHILE hula hooping! - this is not like the sillyness of what most hoop classes offer - tricks and what not. It is dynamic workout & easy for everyone.

My interest in sharing my classes, trainings, hoops & dvds with people on this board is that I am a runner. I set the world record for speed and distance hoop running the Bolder Boulder 10k. I break this time every year. training for hoop running brings out all set back any runner has. Tight hip flexors - overused erectors - weak core strength during sprints & poor spinal alignment which leads to injury.

Please email me or check out the schedule and info on my site.-Next training - Dec 3rd-5th in Aspen, CO

A World Record Work Out

guest — Sun, 16 May 2010 03:33:17 GMT

I was kicked out of a step aerobics class in 91 for lack of rhtyhm. It was then, that I decided to find a hard core workout which cross trains the the body, relieves chronic pain and enhances my sports performance. I wanted to have fun, feel successful and stay motivated. Long story short, I was introduced to larger hula hoops in 1997 and found them to be the most playful and effective of a workout. I started studying the body mechanics of athletes in all sports. I applied my yoga training and extreme sports to a make a unique workout. I travel globally to host trainings and workshops. Then, in 03, a friend dared me to run the Bolder Boulder 10K with my hoop. I organized a team, went through drills of how to move through the crowd, protecting the hoop and running to the finish without ever stopping or dropping the hoop. This turned into a yearly event. The first year that my team finished, we made it into the Guinness Book. Every year since, we break the inital record of time.

I now sell an amazing collapsible hoop, padded, safely weighted and glows in the dark. This comes with a workout dvd and tote. Check it out - www.bettyhoops.com

Hi All!

I am excited to introduce to all you athletes to a portable fitness tool. I developed what hundreds say to be the best collapsible hula hoop on the market. Since 03, people buy this with my workout dvd to open their hips, release chronic pain, strengthen their core and train for endurace sports. It is the top of the line, foam padded for cushion, safely weighted, glow in the dark and comes 2 sizes in 1. I will be teaching classes and trainings throughout the country this summer.

LOOKING FOR 3 RUNNING TO JOIN TEAM HOOP THIS SUN. FT. COLLINS 10K

guest — Tue, 04 May 2010 22:21:56 GMT

I know this is last minute. I set & break world records while running with my hula hoop. (I train athletes globally with my hoops as a form of sport training)

And I would like to enter in the Ft. Collins 10k this sunday, mothers day, 7am. It should only take us 1 hr.

I can pay entrance fees & have until thursday only - to find a few more runners.

You would act as blockers for the hoop so people dont run into it. It is tons of fun & some strategy.

I've hoop ran the Bolder Boulder for 4 years - hoop never has stopped or dropped. I am out of shape so will only be running perhaps 11 minute miles.

please call asap - 970 379 4988

there is video of this on www.bettyhoops.com - press pg.

Re: To tell or not to tell?

of coure

even if it's not a paid article.

you have a chance to reach out to over 50% of runners who have eating disorders.

rock climbers do as well.

they suffer from an emptiness inside which is their extreme drive to succeed, beat the odds & over train.

your words could help pro athletes love themsleves with or without meeting their finish times.

it can also help ones who sit on the sidelines saying, i couldnt do that.

yes & it works for about 1-2 months depending on your activity. it is liek a knife is being stabbed into your heel but the 5 seconds of extremem pain are worth it.

this is a bandaid effect though. infared therapy i hear works. i borrowed my friends $300 hand held Nikken one.

i never get on this site as none of the blogs i write about sport training, injury prevention & core strength are connected on. just happened to pop on for the first time in months & saw this.

email me if you need more info. it is a very frustrating thing to have. it really sucks & is debilitating.
