Dear Subscriber,        

 

It is difficult to imagine, but the summer is almost over. What have you done during the the last several months to get moving for life? We hope that you are enjoying the summer.

 

Have you thought about training to be ready for winter activities?  

 

We are very proud of two Lifemoves' clients who challenged their own abilities by climbing the Grouse Grind.   Recently Alfred explored how the gymnastics rings could be used for exercise rehab and new ideas for body weight training.  

 

The best way to let us know you are benefiting from your sessions is the referral of friends and family.  Please have anyone you know who we could help get moving for life contact us to book a complimentary consultation.

 

 

Sincerely,    

Alfred Ball's Signature 
Alfred Ball and Team

Learning to Use the Gymnastic Rings for Rehabilitation
By Alfred Ball
 

For many years I have admired the strength, power, co-ordination and graceful movement abilities of elite level gymnasts. This was highlighted again during the London 2012 Olympics.

The equipment weighed 1700lbs and was too long to unload using the small lift the delivery person had, so we had to breakdown the boxes and discover what was inside. Read Full Article 

3 Years of Training to Achieve a Fast Grouse Grind  

by Alfred Ball

 

When I mention my new personal best Grouse Grind time of 35:32 minutes (11th age and gender group) some people say "Oh, you are one of those people." In 2009 I was just like everyone else,  that year I decided to dedicate my training to one thing, getting faster on the Grind. Success didn't come overnight, in 2009 I started with a time of 53 minutes (the average for my age group is 54:01). It all started because of a previous knee injury which I was concerned about going downhill with and an intense desire to be one of the fittest in my age group. Read Full Article
