Re: whats your views on swimming once a week instead of road work??
I can remember being chased by a snake once as a kid playing in a sand pit - probably playing in the wrong spot at the wrong time of year - twice though I have been walking along day dreaming and looked down - seen I'm just about to step on a snake (i mean foot RIGHT above it) but backed away slowly and the snakes were not interested in striking me at all.
You just don't want to be like that dude who decided to pick up a snake with his left hand because he usually uses his right but was holding a beer, put it in a sack - ignoring the fact he was bitten - driven off - checked on it (by shoving his hand into the sack) multiple times to make sure it was OK and being bitten several times again - what WAS he thinking! - If he was thinking anything at all!

Up north is a snake The tiapan that actually chases you and does mutiple strikes and you dont usually get to hospital alive! Ours are deadly but they hide and their S*** takes an hour or so to kill you so at least you get some chance.
I hate snakes.
I love ireland.
Yup Ireland is cool nuf, Least we have nothin over hear thatl eat ya. No, most Irish people die from Heart attacks, liver cancer, kidney cancer, car crashes and disagreements, all brought on by a trip down the pub ;D

For some weird reason,I was th apartment complexes resident snake handler when we lived in Florida
And I freaking hate snakes,but everybody somehow decided that I should be the one moving the damned things
There was probably a meeting nobody mentioned to me

My coach used to get us out in the north sea. I haven't done it for a while... I've never learned to swim (meant to be this week! :P) and went under a massive wave the last time! :P

Last time we were trinin up in Northern Ireland thats what they did to us, waited for it to get as cold as possible then made us swim in the coldest water i could ever have imagined
Re: whats your views on swimming once a week instead of road work??
Dam maybe you could save on juice and just stuff ice down your shorts while training instead ???
Some trainers are strange,a local Asian kickboxing master out here used to take his soon to be blackbelts out to a resteraunt for extra hot chilli to see how they can bear internal pain.

I can understand swimming in ice after a training session but not as a training session.
to make swimming a substitute for running your technique better to up to scratch to make it worthwhile. I liked using swim sprints to get me out of breath.

Muscles heat, u start sweating, lactic acid is released and u get tired and cramped.
Put the body in something cold (avoiding the muscles seizing,) You can work ur body at maximum capacity with less lactic acid released, but the heart working harder. Great Cardio.
I THINK.
Re: whats your views on swimming once a week instead of road work??
yeah the heart is working harder so you won't freeze to death :( :)

Thats the idea alright.
Like trining at an altitude, when ur heart is then made work in a normal climate it will seem easier
Re: whats your views on swimming once a week instead of road work??
I prefer training in heat. Love it, muscles are loose, less time warming up, clears toxins.

it's not that cold... and what really makes it hard is when you leave the sea and your clothes have all the water soaked up... probably adds a stone or more on to you :-\ ;)

Yeah, i shave my hair really tight because of training. I no it sound insignificant, but when ur dead tired at a fight and ur hair is full of weighty water it makes it hard.
