Free Workout Book for Stand Up Paddlers (SUP-ers)

Hey everyone, SUP (Stand up paddling) is one of the fastest growing water sports out right now. I have been paying close attention to the sport and am going to be “taking the plunge” soon. That being said, I have also been using the TRX suspension system personally and in my clinic for patient rehab and can say this system is AWESOME for paddling, surfing and SUP.

If you are looking for Standup Paddle Surf training, well Jon Ham wrote the book… litterally. His standup paddle fitness book is available to download for FREE! That’s right… FOR FREE! Click on his link to get the book:  Free TRX SUP workout e-book!

Even if you are not into SUP, you can benefit from this e-book.  You may already love using the TRX system but want new ways to use it, Ham’s e-book will help you here. You may not already own the TRX system but are planning on getting one; why not get a free e-book that will give you some good ideas on how to use it?

The Latest on Exercise and Pregnancy

Well, if you haven’t heard it yet, exercise during pregnancy is a great way to stave-off some pretty “pesky problems” like:

  • Increased ligament laxity
  • Unnecessary weight gain
  • Change in the center of gravity that could create low back pain
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

In addition; exercising mothers-to-be can benefit from it in these important ways:

  • It eases back and other musculoskeletal pain
  • Lowers maternal blood pressure
  • Reduces swelling
  • Improves post-partum mood, including sadness.

There are many ways to exercise, I recommend functional exercises like the TRX system. Cick on the following link for more information on this system: TRX Suspension Training  System.

I will be offering TRX classes at my clinic in Portland, Oregon; click on the following link for more information: TRX Classes at Optimum Function with Dr. Tim Irving
