Re: How Do You Do The Perpetual Lesson?

Arjuna, I have practiced the perpetual lesson twice a day the first time I finished the 12 week course. It can be done if you follow the advice of "train, do not strain". It is very easy to overtrain if you do not do so. Check how do you feel at the end of each trainig sessón. If after you...

Re: Simon's Progress Report

Simon, I am glad to see you have come this far in the course. But I am a bit concerned with that feeling of tiredness you express you feel. For me it means you are pushing too hard and maybe are experiencing a overtraining. "Train, Don't Strain" is not simply a nice motto, but a whole new ...

Re: Cold showers

Simonjr, Lesson 7 can be put into practice right off the bat because it does not include any exercises, just the value of water and how to apply it. If only for medical reasons, jump right into it!!!!! :D

Re: Charles Atlas dynamic tension lives on

I live in Peru and heard about Charles Atlas from my uncle. His passion for exercise and fondness for Dynamic Tension made such an impact on me that I decided to give it a try.
