Most athletes agree - training can create a vicious cycle....As athletes turn up the heat in their training, they start ignoring things like hydration, nutrition, sleep. What comes next is a bummer: Imbalance...immune system/performance suffer...the body becomes susceptible to viral/bacterial infections....trip to Dr. - "abstain from training is the answer"...
Here's how to avoid all that drama!
You never know how one of these can come in handy!

The Star Island Shark Tournament in Montauk is gearing up for a wild weekend!
It's hard to rid my memory bank of the mechanical shark in Jaws every time I'm paddling out on a board.....seeing the real life sharks that lurk beneath the surface of some of my favorite beaches in Monauk may be too much reality for me though - could kill my surfing career!!
Yes, I'll be skippin' the surfing while the waters are being chummed up for all willing sharks who are being tempted to come out and play......instead, I'll be watching the protestors on dry land - too much fun to miss - energetic bunch that they are.

Surfwise is a documentary about Doc Paskowitz who gave up his lucrative career as a physician, packed up his 9 children and set out to surf the world. How cool is that!
I grew up as a "Jones Beach Lifeguard rugrat" - spent every day in the summer (rain or shine) chillin' out at the Beach and kickin' back with the other kids whose Dads (only 1 female guard at the time) were guarding the waters. Things were totally different back then - Jones Beach was a safe, free environment where we could roam around at will and enjoy a life of sun, sand and wild adventures. Our possee could enjoy any activity that presented itself at any given moment, no schedules, camps or rules for us. Surfing with the guards, boating, swimming, bonfires at night, shark fishing and more fun than any kid could hope for. Reggie Jones was a lifeguard then and is now the oldest lifeguard at the beach - he and Doc Paskowitz are similar characters, both found the fountain of youth hidden in the waves. Both believe the best lessons in life are free and can't be taught in the classroom rather in the big blue Ocean.
See Surfwise - you won't regret it!
