I have been cycling and running for about a year now. I first became interested in cycling a couple of years ago when on vacation at Disney during the Florida HIM. About a year ago I purchased Trek road bike and began riding. I also started doing strength training and running. Currently I ride 27...
about eight weeks ago, I decided I wanted to complete a triathlon before I turn 42 in August of 09. While this is a long way out, I am also pretty out of shape and knew I could not get it in before football camp opened. Once that happens, my weekends are mostly taken. So I set a date for next...

If the article that was posted on heart health is accurate why is it that a person who trains long periods on cardio have great resting heart rates and pulse? I noticed my pulse dropped about 10 to 12 beats down to 50 from tri training. I thought this was great until i read the article posted above.

Hello Everyone
My name is Nicolas, and I am 15 years old. I have been getting into shape recently, lost 30 lbs and I have been running for a little while now, and I am up to 5 km in 30 minutes. One of my goals is too run a marathon one day, well actually a few marathons. Then of course, I...
Hi everyone.
This might seem like a pretty stupid question - but I am running my first tri in August of this year. I've never even watched one on TV, so I have no idea how this works. I'm a little - okay - a lot - nervous about the open water swim and being shoved under water and all that...

Also, in swimming how often do you get a breath of air? Is it after every stroke or every 3 strokes? And do you switch...

1) What is Drafting when swimming? I keep reading about Drafting and how...
im a sprinter in high school and about 2 years ago i severely broke my leg wrestling, which put me out of comission for about a year and had me put in physical therapy for a crazy long time. now, my sprinting and overall running abilities have really fallen short of what i used to be able to do,...
I'm pretty new to weight training. I have only been doing it about a month. Here is my main question. I have heard that I should do chest/shoulders/tri's in one day. But when I get done doing chest I am so tired that shoulders are hard to do, let alone tri's. Is it still best to do all these in...
