Each week a
free newsletter is published. The
purpose of the newsletter is to inform and benefit those wanting to get fitter,
faster, or simply lose weight. The
purpose is to save you time, but you learning the ‘easy way’ (opposed to
learning the ‘hard way’), when it comes to training and nutrition.
My
background is one of being obese (120kgs+) in 2005. I lost the weight, got fit, and remained
focused. In the process of this
transformation I have completed a number of New Zealand’s iconic sporting
events – and I have learnt a huge amount about what works…and what doesn’t. Some people can have philosophical debates about
the merits of specific training techniques – others get out there and do
it.
Specifically,
my events have included…
Cycling
Current Record
holder - New Zealand 24 hour (outdoor) track record. (Endorsed and approved by Bike NZ).
Taupo
Challenge – Solo (160kms), Enduro (two laps), and Maxi Enduro (four laps).
Graperide
Ultimate (five laps of the 101km circuit) – I have participated in all editions
of this event and have completed the most laps of the Graperide event.
Triathlon
Completed the
New Zealand Ironman, and also multiple Half Ironman events.
Swimming
Completed
the Taupo Epic (5kms), and have swam Lake Rotoiti in the Nelson Lakes (7.6kms).
Running
Multiple
marathons, with the training also including regular 20km hill runs.
If you want
to get the weekly updates, then simply add your email address to the “Subscribe
to Articles” form at the top left menu.
Touch base
at any stage if you want to talk about how to get better.
Kind
regards,
Stu Downs.
On the way to breaking the New Zealand 24 Hour (outdoor) track record in 2012.
