SILENT HEALER

Welcome everyone...my Heroes this week, our youth, all involved in
"NEVER AGAIN." Marchers and those of us cheering. March on!
Every Sunday I need to be alone...silence. I take a long walk to get to know who I am. Yes, I talk to myself...I have to like who I am. I'm all I have. I clarify my purpose in life...why I do the things I do.
I need to focus. I walk until I reach a conclusion...what I want to grow into as a person, community leader and fostering the homeless, hunger, the lonely, and the physically and mentally challenged. Those are the ones I learn from...care about. When I conclude my one/two hour walk I feel refreshed...ready to climb my Mt. Everest and knowing why I do it. It's always for them. Have a great life everyone...Jimmy O

ON LAND and WATER

Welcome everyone...I call certain drills...Crazy Time. Start w/a bungee cord. Affix one end to something sturdy and the cord should be heavy duty and according to your weight. Place the 2 handles, one in each hand and move away from the fixed object 'til cord is taught with your back to the fixed object. Keep walking away
until you are at capacity, hands are waist high. Hands can be waist high, shoulder high or bending knees and keeping waist high. You can also do this drill facing the fixed object. High impact...with 3 feet of slack, sprint. Try and increase your distance w/each attempt. You can also do this sideways with crossover steps. 3 sets each way
with 5 to each set. Next drill...sprinting in water about 3 ft. deep for about 10 m. Knees can be in or out of water. Do 10 times. Next, sprinting in sand. Go easy on this one, your quads will have a work out. These drills will challenge your every muscle. I do these drills once each week...they made me stronger, faster and have more stamina. Even walking through the above will help.

THE FINISH LINE/13 OF 13

Welcome back everyone...the finish line is calculated by time, numbers and distance. With every drill/exercise...what is your finish line, end result. your success is dependent upon your practice. How you practice predicts your event performance Track when you give up and why. I know...you are tired. NO!!! You gave up. You gave in to weakness. You programed your brain to quit. That's what quitters do. With a built in factory of excuses. Stop it! Once you start THINKING about winning...finish by winning. Winners conquer themselves. Last points...Balance...99% of balance comes from the inner ear and nerve endings in your feet. Work Plyo and Iso into your workouts...especially Plyo. Accept success and you will find it. Accept failure and it will find you. Have a meaningful life everyone. www.secondwindfitnessfilm.com

BURSTS/12 IN SERIES OF 13

Welcome back everyone...and welcome to the field of bursts. Warning...before entering the burst field, "heat up." Stretching on grass" or dry surface and skips. The drills, everything in double time. Sets are continues  with deep breathing. 30 sec. break between each drill and 3 min. break between sets. I select 5/7 drills over a 45 min. session. Tough? Yes! High Impact? Yes! It's supposed to be. The 45 min. session, done right, is worth more than a 90 min. session. My selection, and in any particular order. 1) jump rope. 5 sets with 1 min. each. 2) jumping in place, jump and bring knees waist high and land on balls of feet, don't be flat footed or you may as well sit down. 30 in 15 sec. 3 sets.3) sprint 10m. and sprint running backwards 10m. 5 sets. 5) facing in the opposite direction you will be sprinting, holding a soccer ball and flip it over your head as far as you can, turn and sprint for the ball and try and catch it on the first bounce...at the very least the 2nd bounce. 5 sets. Now you are 100% better than before you started. See you at the finish line. www.secondwindfitnessfilm.com
