How To Become A Bowling Cranker
If you wish to learn how to become a bowling cranker
, then begin with understanding a few important techniques to develop an appropriate footwork pattern and an effective bowling ball release motion. "Cranking" a bowling ball means to impart a strong rate of revolutions on the bowling ball by means of a quick and decisive releasing action with the bowling hand producing a sizable degree of axis tilt and normally delivered with a reasonably high ball velocity.
Your release action determines if a ball will hook modestly, sharply (as a "crank release causes"), or if the ball will go straight. Developing a hook release is generally preferred over a straight ball delivery. A hook ball will enter the pocket at the pin deck with an increased angle of entry more likely to maximize pin carry compared to a straight ball delivery.
A bowling ball
with a high rate of revolutions, a high ball speed, and a sharp angle of entry into the pocket will produce the highest chances of getting strikes. The risk is greater, however, in controlling a ball with a severe or sharp hooking motion compared to a modest hook motion. Both can lead to very desirable results. Make sure you are skilled enough as a bowler to be able to have good balance, good posture walking to the foul line, and a solid platform when releasing the bowling ball before you work at generating maximum power in your release.
Maximum power with no control of direction will produce far less than favorable results. Normally, cranker type players are very athletic people and flexible enough to make the relatively violent deliveries of the bowling ball required to achieve a cranker status. Make certain your physical conditioning allows you to proceed with developing a cranker release.
The first technique in learning how to become a bowling cranker
is to create a footwork pattern which promotes a proper arm swing path. For example, the pro bowlers who crank the bowling ball (right handed players - opposite for left handed players) will walk left from the starting position on the approach so the swing tucks in nicely and allows the player to swing and release the ball from an inside path to a target further right down the lane than will an up-the-boards player.
A technique used by players who walk left with a consistent footwork pattern (for right handed players) using a 4 step approach and which encourages good balance is as follows:
1. The first step with the right foot moves straight ahead from it initial positioning on the approach and maintains consistent tempo and distance of the step from one delivery to the next.
2. The second step with the left foot steps to the left about 5 boards from the initial positioning on the approach and maintains consistent tempo and distance from delivery to delivery.
3. The third step with the right foot steps in front of the second step in a tightrope fashion as to step on a line under the center line of the torso and maintains consistent tempo and distance each delivery.
4. The final slide step slides under the chin or the center line of the torso to support the weight of the body and create a stable and balanced platform in which to deliver the ball. The slide foot should enter the foul line in a fairly straight line so the toe of the sliding bowling shoe
faces the pocket down the lane.
The pattern of steps to walk to the left, therefore, is "straight on one, left about 5 boards on two, step to the center line of the body on three, and slide under the center line of the body on four." Of course, if you use a five step approach, the first step is straight to get you into motion, then the remaining four steps follow the above described pattern. There are alternative but similar walking methods used by cranker players but this technique is very common and taught by many certified bowling coaches.
Relating to specific hand action, try the following techniques under the guidance or supervision of a professional coach for best results:
1. Maintain constant and very firm bowling ball grip pressure on the pads of your fingers from the stance position on the approach and throughout the swing into the critical release area at the bottom of the down swing as your hand nears the back of your sliding shoe. If you release the ball between the shoe laces of your sliding shoe and the toe of the shoe, the momentum developed from the swinging of the bowling ball will carry the ball onto the lane surface beyond the foul line. The closer you can regulate the "moment of release
" to that precise area of your sliding shoe, the more consistent your release will become.
2. Using a full finger-tip grip drilled by your pro shop operator and making sure you learn to allow your bowling thumb to exit the ball prior to the fingers exiting the ball gives you the best chance at hooking a bowling ball. In fact, there are some players who choose to not use a thumb to hold the bowling ball but rather use the fingers only to generate maximum revolutions of the ball. To produce a strong hook requires discipline because of a fast and significant rotation by the bowling fingers and unhinging of the tilted wrist position as your bowling hand releases the ball.
3. Set up on the approach with your hand under the ball with the palm of your hand facing toward the ceiling, or perhaps even further under the ball, as to allow a maximum rotation of your fingers at the moment of release. Work at maintaining your hand remaining behind the ball as long as possible or until your hand reaches the release zone before you rotate your bowling fingers. Tilt or hinge the wrist of your bowling hand as you begin the down swing and allow your bowling elbow to bend and scoop the bowling ball in a slight cradle position which will get your fingers in position to rotate around the the bowling ball with a snappy action at the precise moment of release. Avoid rotating the bowling ball until your hand reaches the release zone located at the laces of your bowling shoes.
4. If you are a right handed bowler (opposite for left handed bowlers), as your hand reaches the critical release zone with your hand maintaining the "behind the ball" positioning on the forward swing, you must rotate your fingers quickly and decisively from left to right or about about three to four hours on a visualized clock dial from "behind the ball" to the side of the ball which is from the 7 o' clock position to the 4 o' clock or the 3 o' clock positions. Try not to over-rotate your bowling fingers beyond the 3 o' clock position as to rotate your entire arm over the top of the bowling ball.
A quick and manageable amount of finger rotation will tilt the rotating axis to perhaps a range of 45 - 70 degrees of axis tilt, cause a noticeable high rate of revolutions and the "crank motion" you seek on your ball, and will cause the ball to hook sharply down the lane. Be careful not to rotate your entire arm but rather only your fingers and wrist action; this cannot be stressed enough.bowlingball.com
always recommends you consult with a professional, certified coach
, particularly if you are working on developing a powerful release technique, if you are a two finger bowler using no thumb to grip the ball, or if you are a two handed bowler. Developing a powerful release action is difficult to communicate in words and, therefore, is better accomplished when an experienced coach can guide you through a proper procedure.
Cranking the ball is not for everyone. In fact, it can be safely stated your accuracy will increase if your release technique produces a modest hooking action rather than the powerful, sweeping hook motion which is difficult to control although you will sacrifice angle of entry into the pocket and some pin carry.bowlingball.com

CoreSport - Premium Sports Supplements and Nutrition
CoreSport Products provide a specialist range of quality sports nutrition supplements scientifically designed to assist athletes and those wishing to improve their performance and nutritional well-being.
All of our products are bespoke formulations utilising only the best quality and the most advanced ingredients available.
In fact, we think that the formulations and quality of the ingredients in all of our sports nutrition products are so good, that we happily identify them clearly on all our labeling with no need to resort to fancy sounding proprietary blends to hide inferior ingredients, which unfortunately many of our competitors do!
The company was set up by us; Jim & Ranju, a husband and wife team. Being fitness fanatics and trying various brands, we became disillusioned with the majority of sports and nutrition products which are currently on the market. They were either too expensive or contained poor quality ingredients with cheap fillers.
So, one day after talking about how great it would be if only we could make our own range that we could completely trust, we took stock and thought why not actually do exactly that? And so, the simple idea became a reality.

A roomy fit which is great for wider feet, comfortable but not as bouncy as a running shoe like the Pegasus. Sadly I will be returning these because of the way these are laced. My heels lift out of the shoes at the back with every step because the lacing from the side does not hold my foot firmly enough down into the shoe.

Very comfortable sneakers. The 97's are my favorite air max.

Any Bike, Anywhere: The Rough Rider’s Way of Life
By Chris Kostman
Originally published by Hammer Nutrition in Endurance News, Edition #68, March 2010. View that version online here.
In the February 1993 issue of Bicycle Guide, I published an article called “Mountain Bikes: Who Needs Them?” which began with this hackle-raising opener:
“I routinely dust every mountain biker I encounter on the trail. And I ride a road bike.”
Speaking the truth more fully, I then hooked the readers a little more deeply by continuing thusly:
“Furthermore, I think, no, I know, the mountain bike is the most over-rated, most improperly used, most over-built, and most greedily promoted piece of hardware to hit the sport and fitness industry in modern history. Ninety-nine percent of the miles ridden by 99% of the mountain bikes could, and should, be ridden on the first and only real all terrain bike, the 'road bike.' More bluntly, a road bike is equal to or better than a mountain bike if ridden with skill like I have.”
At first, the hate mail poured in, more than for any article ever published in that magazine, with readers calling me “the most arrogant, elitist bastard I’ve ever read” and similar gems. One reader was at such a loss for words that he just sent in a fax of his hand with the middle finger raised.
But then a neat thing happened: Some readers went out and tried my premise. More letters ensued from readers who claimed they had used their road bike to set a new course record at a “mountain bike” hill climb event; others made bigger claims, stating that their lives had been changed, for the better, forever.
Here we are eighteen years later and “Rough Riding,” as it has come to be known, is beginning to come into its own as a particular sub-category of cycling. The motto from my article - “Technique beats technology any time, anywhere.” - has been adopted by innumerable cyclists the world round who have embraced the “any bike, anywhere” ethos. The current bicycle industry, from major manufacturers to boutique frame builders, is beginning to address this niche market, creating bicycles, or even lines of bicycles, under such monikers as "All Road Bikes," "All-Rounders," and "Adventure Bikes." There’s even a Wikipedia page about Rough Riding.
Rough Riding is nothing new, however: Before "mountain bikes," cyclists routinely rode all manner of bicycles on all manner of riding surfaces. They just didn’t know any better, you might say. The oldest known mixed-surface cycling club is the Rough Stuff Fellowship, formed in the United Kingdom in 1955.
That’s not to say Rough Riding is mainstream, of course. In fact, it’s a common misconception that without the "right bike," one simply cannot partake in the wonderful landscape of cycling opportunities. It’s time to set the record straight, though, for any bike can be taken anywhere!
This really isn’t some secret conspiracy that I am blowing the whistle on here, for cyclists the world round take "the wrong bike into the wrong place." Just ride any century ride and you’ll see innumerable mountain bikes and cross bikes being comfortably and happily put to good use in grinding out the 100 miler. (Heck, mountain bikes have even been ridden successfully in 500 mile road races like Furnace Creek 508!)
How does all this work, you ask? It’s simply a case of the rider riding the bike, not the reverse. In other words, let technology work for you or just don’t use the technology in the first place. Think about it: turning cranks in circles is turning cranks in circles. Whether that translates into covering terrain efficiently is entirely up to the skill and strength of the rider. With time, any rider can learn to ride any bike anywhere. The trick is just getting out there and going for it!
Bikes are the ultimate freedom tools: they let you go to more places, more easily, and more simply than any other human invention. But in today’s era of high technology and equipment specialization, they can also seem incredibly limiting.
The Rough Riding philosophy can mean different things to different people. First of all, it can mean that you may not really have to shell out the bucks for a new bike because you only have a "road bike" or a "mountain bike." So this can save you a lot of money. But if you already have both types of bikes, then you can hone your skills for either bike by using the "wrong bike" on various rides.
For example, riding skinny tyres off-pavement will hone your attentiveness, balance, coordination, handling skills, and nerve. Likewise, riding fat tyres on-road will build strength, hill climbing ability, and provide a comfy and largely bullet-proof ride. Rides that combine both environments will become a real treat, allowing you to immediately experience the cross-over benefits firsthand.
Regardless of bicycle choice, the goal of Rough Riding is to tackle any and all possible combinations of trails, fire roads, gravel roads, paved roads, singletrack, and any other possible riding surface - all within one ride, on just one bike. Perhaps the greatest beauty of Rough Riding is that any possible ride route can be created and enjoyed: Rough Riders do not choose between "road biking" and "mountain biking" and subsequently let the bicycle determine the route and terrain of any given ride. Instead, creative, "first ascent-style" rides can be strung together in one epic route which involves all manner of riding surfaces, sights, sounds, and scenes. The Rough Riding goal, perhaps? To see it all and do it all, to truly have an adventure. Try it: your life might be changed forever!
Chris and 99 other Rough Riders will gather in Marin County for the first ever Rough Riders Rally on July 23-25. You’re invited! Info at www.adventurecorps.com/rrr/.

Chromax Golf Balls Australia
‘ Balls and All ‘ are the Distributors of the High Visibility Chromax Golf Ball throughout Australia on behalf of Chromax Golf.
The Chromax golf ball
Many of us don’t remember the days when tennis balls were white. Tennis is a sport that reveres tradition and many players resisted the introduction of the bright green balls that nearly everyone plays today.
Golf also respects its history. But certain innovations are hard to resist. Woods were once made of wood. But metal woods proved so superior that tradition had to give way.
Coloured golf balls
The new Chromax golf ball is another such innovation. It is a coloured gold ball. The patented reflective finish is so much more visible – on the green and in the air – that only the hard and fast traditionalist will continue to play the white ball. Its remarkable brightness on the green will save search time and sharply reduce the loss of balls. Its visibility in the air allows the golfer to watch the ball in flight and more easily correct his or her swing. The ball is also beautiful: Many end up on display.
This is one of those times when tradition must give way to a superior innovation that will enhance the game of golf: The Chromax Metallic Golf Ball.
We sell coloured golf balls online

When it comes to improving your golf game, the age-old debate of soft vs. hard golf balls often comes up.
Opinions vary as widely as fairways, but understanding the differences between soft and hard golf balls can help you make an informed choice that best suits your game.
In this article, we’re going to break down the distinctions between soft vs. hard golf balls, discuss the benefits of each, and hopefully steer you toward the right golf ball, that’s just right for your golfing needs. So let’s get into it.
Soft vs. Hard Golf Balls: What’s the Difference?
If you’ve spent any time in the world of golf, you’ve probably come across terms like “soft,” “hard,” or “compression rating” thrown around when discussing golf balls. But what do these words actually mean, and more importantly, how do they affect your game on the course?
Stick around as we unpack the differences between soft and hard golf balls, digging into their physical characteristics and what that means for your performance on the links.
The Core: Softer vs. Firmer Cores
The heart of every golf ball – the core – plays a pivotal role in its performance. Soft golf balls usually have a lower compression rating, indicating a softer core. In contrast, hard golf balls typically boast a higher compression rating, signifying a more solid core.
This variation in the core’s composition can have a pretty big impact on all sorts of things, from how far the ball flies, how much you can control its spin, to how it feels when you strike it. So, the type of ball you choose can make a difference in your game.
Cover Material: Urethane vs. Surlyn Covers
Golf ball covers are typically made from either urethane or surlyn materials. Premium soft golf balls often use urethane covers that provide excellent greenside control and a softer feel when struck by clubs with higher lofts (such as wedges).
However, surlyn-covered hardballs tend to be more durable than their urethane counterparts while offering less spin around greens but longer overall distances off tee shots.
Suitable Swing Speed
Your swing speed can be a deciding factor in whether a soft or hard golf ball suits you better. If you’ve got a slower swing speed, clocking in below 85 mph, softer balls might be the way to go. These compress more easily and can help you get some extra yardage.
On the flip side, if your swing speed is quicker, say above 105 mph, harder balls could be your best bet, as they can offer superior control and consistency. So, it’s not just about the balls but also about how you get faster swing speed with them!
Spin Control: Soft vs. Hard Balls
The spin control, a key element of your golf game, can be greatly influenced by the type of ball you use. Usually, softer golf balls generate higher spin rates, especially on shots around the green, thanks to their urethane covers.
This added spin can help more skilled players craft their shots just as they want. On the other side of the coin, the harder golf balls are often known to create less spin when hit with longer clubs, like drivers. This could lead to straighter shots, but there’s a trade-off: you might be giving up a bit of delicacy when you’re near the greens.
So, picking the right ball can be a balancing act between control and finesse.
Durability: How Long Will Your Ball Last?
When deciding between soft and hard golf balls, you should also consider the longevity of your choice.
While those premium soft golf balls covered in urethane can offer great perks like better feel and more spin control, they might not last as long as their firm golf ball counterparts covered in surlyn.
This means if your soft balls get scuffed or damaged during play, you might need to replace them more often.
So while the performance might be great, just remember to factor in the lifespan of your golf balls in your decision-making process.
Benefits of Soft Golf Balls
Given their improved feel, many golfers – both pros and amateurs alike – have been turning to soft golf balls for better control. Let’s dive into the advantages that soft golf balls offer.
Better Feel and Control
One of the main reasons players opt for soft golf balls is their enhanced feel around the greens. The softer core better feeling golf ball provides more feedback on contact, allowing you to better gauge your shots and improve touch on delicate chips or putts.
Soft golf balls tend to generate higher spin rates, particularly with shorter clubs like wedges. This can help you achieve greater control over shot trajectory and stopping power on approach shots – a crucial aspect when trying to hit draws or fades close to pin positions.
Forgiveness for Slower Swing Speeds
Players with slower swing speeds often benefit from using low-compression (softer) golf balls as they compress more easily upon impact at slow swing speeds, resulting in improved energy transfer and increased distance off the tee.
A key advantage of a softer feeling golf ball is their ability to reduce sidespin caused by off-center hits. This results in straighter shots even if your swing isn’t perfect – an essential factor for average golfers looking to lower scores.
Premium Feel at Lower Costs
While high-end golf balls can be expensive, plenty of affordable soft options are available that deliver a premium feel without breaking the bank. For those seeking to enhance their game without investing heavily in equipment, these low-cost soft golf balls offer a luxurious feel at an economical price.
Suitable for Various Skill Levels
Soft golf balls aren’t just for beginners or players with slower swing speeds. Many skilled golfers also prefer the softer feel and increased control these balls offer. However, it’s important to consider your personal preference and playing style when selecting between soft and hard golf balls – what works best for one golfer may not necessarily suit another.
Benefits of Hard Golf Balls
While soft golf balls have their advantages, there are also several benefits to using hard golf balls. Some golfers opt for a harder golf ball due to their advantages.
Better Distance Performance with Longer Clubs
Hard golf balls, due to their higher compression rating, are great for those long shots off the tee with drivers or fairway woods. Essentially, with fast swing speeds, you can compress these harder compression golf balls more, translating to a better energy transfer from your club to the ball and hence, more distance.
Durability and Cost-Effectiveness
If your golf budget is a bit tight, or if you tend to send your expensive golf balls off on unexpected adventures into the rough, then hard golf balls could be just the ticket. They’re generally cheaper than their high-end, soft urethane counterparts and offer the added bonus of being more durable, giving you more bang for your buck.
Straighter Shots for High Handicap Players
If you’re struggling with accuracy off the tee or from long distances, a much firmer ball and core found in hardballs might help produce straighter shots. This is particularly beneficial for high-handicap players looking to improve their consistency on these challenging strokes.
Easier Shot Shaping for Skilled Golfers
A harder ball offers less spin than its softer counterpart, which can be advantageous for skilled golfers who want to shape their shots more easily. With less spin, it’s simpler to hit draws and fades or keep the ball low under windy conditions.
Which Golf Ball Should I Use?
Choosing between soft and hard golf balls can be a daunting task, especially for weekend golfers or those looking to improve their game. When it comes to selecting a golf ball, one’s inclination, playing ability, and swing velocity all come into play.
To make an informed decision, consider the following factors:
- Swing Speed: If you’re swinging at speeds below 100 mph, you might find harder golf balls with higher compression ratings better match your game.
- Your Golfing Skills: If you’re just starting out or an average golfer, the increased forgiveness of softer balls could be a game-changer, especially for those off-center hits. But if you’re pretty skilled and like to shape your shots or love hitting draws, then harder balls might be more up your alley.
- The Feel Factor: Everyone’s different – some golfers simply prefer the feel of a softer ball upon impact. This is a personal preference, so give a few different balls a shot to see what suits you best.
- Durability and Dough: Harder golf balls usually have a longer lifespan than soft ones, but this extra durability might come with a higher price tag. So, before you shell out for those top-tier pro-level balls, consider whether it fits your budget and how often you play.
Finding Your Perfect Match: Test Different Options.
Finding your perfect golf ball match involves a bit of trial and error. There’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ in the world of golf; what works wonders for one golfer might not have the same magic for you.
So, get out on the course and give different balls a whirl – play around with various compressions, try different cover materials like softer urethane or harder Surlyn, and test out different brands.
Remember, every golfer has their own unique style, strengths, and weaknesses.
The goal here is to find a ball that not only feels great but also enhances your game in all the right places – from distance and control to spin rate and durability. So, don’t be afraid to mix things up and see what works best for you. It’s all part of the journey to improve your game.
FAQ: Soft vs. Hard Golf Balls
Do weather conditions affect the performance of soft and hard golf balls differently?
Weather conditions can impact the performance of soft and hard golf balls differently.
In colder weather, golf balls tend to harden, reducing their bounce and overall distance. This effect can be more pronounced in hard golf balls. On the other hand, in hot conditions, soft golf balls may become even softer, potentially affecting their distance and durability.
As a rule of thumb, consider using softer balls in cold weather and harder balls in hot weather for optimal performance.
Are there specific golf courses where soft golf balls are better to use than hard ones, or vice versa?
While the type of golf course can influence your choice of a golf ball, it’s often more about your style of play and swing speed.
That said, on a course with many water hazards or dense rough, a harder, more durable, and often cheaper golf ball might be a more pragmatic choice.
Similarly, a softer ball might offer more control on courses with firm and fast greens due to its higher spin.
Do soft and hard golf balls sound different when hit?
Yes, the sound is different when hitting soft versus hard golf balls.
Softer balls tend to produce a softer, more muted sound upon impact. Conversely, harder balls can create a louder, higher-pitched sound. This sound difference is due to the different materials and compression rates of the balls.
Some golfers find this audible feedback useful in gauging the quality of their shots.
Does the age of a golf ball affect its hardness?
Over time, exposure to the elements, especially moisture and UV radiation from sunlight, can potentially degrade a golf ball’s cover and affect its performance.
However, under normal storage conditions, the hardness of a golf ball should not significantly change over time. It is always a good idea to keep your golf balls in a cool, dry place when not in use.
Does the altitude affect the performance of soft and hard golf balls?
Altitude can impact the flight of a golf ball due to changes in air pressure. At higher altitudes, the air is less dense, which reduces drag and allows the ball to travel farther.
However, this effect is not specific to either soft or hard golf balls. The performance difference at varying altitudes comes more from the specific construction and compression rating of the ball rather than its relative hardness or softness.
Can I switch between hard and soft golf balls during a round?
According to the rules set by the United States Golf Association (USGA), you are allowed to change your ball between holes but not during the play of a hole unless it is lost, out of bounds, or damaged.
This means you could use a soft ball for holes requiring more finesse and control, then switch to a harder ball for holes where distance is more crucial.
Do soft golf balls lose their softness over time?
Soft golf balls should maintain their softness over time unless exposed to extreme conditions, such as prolonged exposure to heat or cold.
However, repeated strikes can affect the ball’s performance characteristics. This wear and tear can gradually degrade the outer cover, affect the spin, or even alter the ball’s flight characteristics. That said, unless you’re playing professionally, these changes will likely be minor and not significantly impact your game.
Wrapping It Up: Soft vs. Hard Golf Balls
Choosing between soft vs. hard golf balls can greatly influence your performance on the golf course. It’s a matter of matching the ball to your personal playing style and skill level. A soft golf ball tend to lend themselves well to golfers with slower swing speeds, offering a pleasing feel and control. On the flip side, firmer golf balls often cater to those with faster swing speeds, providing more distance.
The selection isn’t a one-size-fits-all scenario. Pro golfers with high swing speeds might lean towards premium, harder balls, while your average weekend players could find they benefit from a softer golf ball with lower compression.
But remember the secret sauce to uncovering the perfect ball for you lies in experimentation. Try out a range of golf balls, taking note of their compression ratings and how they match your swing speed. Personal preference will play a part, too – how the ball feels as you strike it and the way it influences your shots, be they shaped shots or straight drives.

There’s been a lot of buzz around this shoe, the Nike Lunar Trainers, even if it isn’t out in the market yet. There was the Nike Lunar Test Run we had last August. And I read about Runwitme‘s similar experience in Malaysia. Plus, Jeannette Wang‘s positive experience using it when she won the Singapore Sundown Ultramarathon (84km) with a time of 9.5 hours.
The Lunar Trainers are set for a limited release this October 2008—meaning the distribution of this shoe is not massive and not a on a wide scale like other Nike shoes—while bulk of these will go on full blast in early 2009.
For those of you who would like to reserve a pair of Lunars (retails at P4,995), below are the contact numbers of Nike outlets. Nike says there are only 18 pairs each for men and women per outlet, except at Nike Bonifacio High Street where there are 30 pairs for men and 18 for women:
Black Cat, I-Np Glorietta 729.14.73 / 813.00.82
Nike Park – Greenbelt3 757.44.91
Nike Park – Sm Moa 556.07.89
Nike Park – The Fort 856.25.86 / 856.25.87

When it comes to enhancing athletic performance and achieving a chiseled physique, selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) have gained immense popularity in recent years. Among the various SARMs available, Rad 140 and Rad 150 are often considered top contenders. Both compounds have been extensively studied for their potential benefits in muscle growth, strength gains, and fat loss. In this article, we will dive deep into the similarities and differences between Rad 140 and Rad 150, allowing you to make an informed choice regarding which SARM may be better suited for your fitness goals.
Overview of Rad 140
Rad 140, also known as Testolone, is a SARM that was developed to offer an alternative to traditional anabolic steroids. It has gained significant attention for its ability to selectively bind to androgen receptors in muscles and bones, leading to increased protein synthesis and enhanced muscle growth. Unlike anabolic steroids, Rad 140 does not cause the same level of androgenic side effects, making it a popular choice among athletes and bodybuilders.
Overview of Rad 150
Rad 150, also known as TLB-150 or TP-150, is another SARM that has caught the attention of fitness enthusiasts. Like Rad 140, Rad 150 is designed to selectively target androgen receptors, stimulating the growth of muscles and enhancing overall athletic performance. While Rad 150 is relatively newer and less researched compared to Rad 140, its potential benefits are gradually being explored.
Comparison of Mechanism of Action
Although both Rad 140 and Rad 150 belong to the same category of SARMs, they have distinct mechanisms of action:
- Rad 140 selectively binds to androgen receptors in muscle and bone tissues.
- It increases protein synthesis, leading to enhanced muscle growth and recovery.
- Rad 140 does not aromatize, meaning it does not convert to estrogen, thus avoiding the typical estrogen-related side effects.
- It helps in burning fat by increasing metabolism without impacting muscle mass.
- Rad 150 also selectively targets androgen receptors, primarily in muscle tissues.
- It enhances protein synthesis and muscle growth.
- Rad 150 may have a stronger anabolic effect compared to Rad 140, potentially resulting in more significant gains in muscle mass and strength.
Benefits of Rad 140
RAD 140 offers several potential benefits for athletes and bodybuilders:
- Significantly increases muscle mass and strength
- Enhances endurance and performance
- Promotes fat loss without impacting muscle mass
- Improves recovery and reduces muscle soreness
- No androgenic side effects such as hair loss, acne, or prostate enlargement
Benefits of Rad 150
While research on Rad 150 is still relatively limited, some potential benefits have been reported by users:
- Promotes significant muscle growth and strength gains
- Shows potential for accelerated recovery and reduced muscle fatigue
- May enhance overall athletic performance
- Minimal androgenic side effects
Side Effects and Safety
When used responsibly and at recommended dosages, both Rad 140 and Rad 150 are generally considered safe. However, it’s crucial to note that as research on these compounds is ongoing, there may be potential risks or long-term effects that have not yet been identified.
Some common side effects associated with SARMs usage may include:
- Mild testosterone suppression
- Increased aggression (rare)
It is recommended to adhere to the recommended dosage guidelines and consult with a healthcare professional before starting any SARMs cycle.
Which SARM to Choose: Rad 140 or Rad 150?
The choice between Rad 140 and Rad 150 ultimately depends on your specific fitness goals, preferences, and experience with SARMs. Here are a few factors to consider:
- Muscle Growth: If your primary goal is to maximize muscle growth, Rad 150 may be a better option due to its potentially stronger anabolic effects. However, Rad 140 has also been proven to provide significant muscle gains.
- Fat Loss: Both Rad 140 and Rad 150 have the potential to aid in fat loss, but Rad 140 is particularly known for its ability to increase metabolism and promote fat burning.
- Endurance and Performance: Rad 140 has been reported to improve endurance and overall performance, making it an excellent choice if you are looking to enhance your athletic abilities.
- Safety: As both compounds are relatively safe, the choice does not significantly differ regarding safety profiles.

The Encyclopedia of Sports and the International Olympic Committee are among the reliable sources that consider swimming a sport. However, there’s a bit more to it when it comes to answering the question of whether or not swimming is a sport, which is a debate that’s been going on for years. Nonetheless, we make an attempt to provide some answers by diving into this topic below.
Swimming for competitive purposes can take many forms. It can involve amateur competitions in high school or college. It can also involve competitions with more serious stakes, like what’s common with events that could result in a shot at an Olympic medal. Realistically, most competitive swimmers fall somewhere in the middle of this spectrum. The point is, if you’re swimming competitively at any level, swimming can be considered a sport. According to the Global Association of International Sports Federations, a “sport” is defined by characteristics that include:
• Having an element of competition
• Not relying solely on the element of luck
• Having no unreasonable health risks for participants
The Encyclopedia of World Sport further defines a “sport” as a competition involving two or more individuals or teams. There must also be a primary goal of victory, which should be determined by participants’ physical abilities. For competitive purposes, swimming typically checks all of these boxes. Therefore, when taking the criteria mentioned above into consideration, swimming is absolutely a sport.
A more casual approach to swimming doesn’t exactly meet all the qualifications for being considered a sport, at least going by the criteria stated above. It also depends on why you’re swimming in the first place. For example, if you’re casually swimming at the beach or in a saltwater pool in your backyard, swimming would be considered more of a recreational activity than a sport.
We say this is a grey area of sorts because there are different ways you can swim for exercise purposes. For instance, if you work out in the pool to practice for competitions, swimming could be considered sports related. However, swimming could be classified as simply a water-based form of exercise if it’s done purely for exercise or fitness purposes.
Ultimately, swimming can take many forms as far as how it’s enjoyed and classified. Generally, if it’s competitive in nature, it’s a sport. Otherwise, it’s more of an activity or form of exercise. Regardless of how it’s enjoyed, swimming can be a part of your life in any way that’s right for you. What’s also great about the fluidity of swimming in terms of how it can be classified is that it allows you to:
• Do what’s comfortable for you at any given time
• Enjoy the many mind-body health benefits associated with swimming
• Have a great excuse to invest in a backyard pool
If you’re looking for the perfect way to boost your physical and mental health, swimming can be exactly what you need. As an award-winning swimming pool contractor San Diego families and businesses have trusted for more than four decades, San Diego Pools can create a custom pool for you that offers a great way to exercise as well as a place to relax and get away from it all.

The major health problems we are facing today are lifestyle diseases (diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia etc). The best solution for these problems are physical exercise, proper and well planned dieting habits.
Ideal recommendation is that; moderate physical activity, at least 150 minutes/week, which should include both aerobic exercise (which increases heart rate like jogging, brisk walking, cycling etc) and anerobic exercise which keeps you look younger (push ups, weight lifting and other stretching exercises).
Here in Phoenix Fitness Centre, each and every person is individually attended by the trainers and ensure that all are getting the proper work outs according to their requirements.
Unlike other fitness centres, Phoenix is unique in that, they promote lots of out door activities like beach side workouts, cricket and badminton tournaments and many other entertainment programs.

Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver Review
The Straightest Driver of 2023
I used the Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver for 6 rounds of golf. It is an update to the ST-Z driver from 2022. That was one of the straightest drivers I’d hit, and the ST-Z 230 driver is even straighter. Yet it maintains low spin and easy launch. Testing was on-course, at the range, and indoors in the iGR Office by Carls Place DIY Sim which collected data on my FlightScope Xi Tour Launch Monitor.
Here is my overall experience and thoughts on the Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver for 2023.
Mizuno is so famous for their irons that their woods have gotten overlooked. While this might seem like a broken record over the years here at iGolfReviews but data says it remains to be the case. Tour players often have a different brand driver when they play Mizuno irons. Golf stores sell all kinds of Mizuno irons, but not nearly as many woods. This is unfortunate because Mizuno makes excellent woods. The Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver is the straightest driver for 2023 and should be at the top of the demo list for golfers looking to upgrade.
The Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver gets its biggest technology boost from the CORETECH Chamber. It is a slot system behind the face to create faster ball speed while retaining low spin and forgiveness. The TPU, Carbon and Stainless Steel slot/insert creates flex, feel and forgiveness all in one swoop. More trampoline effect, means more pop. More muted sounds and vibration reduction means better feel and more speed for off-center hits means more forgiveness. Add a little weight and now it reduces spin. One little blue slot does so much to improve this driver for straight and low spin drives.
The Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver continues the Mizuno tradition of using an ample amount of carbon paired with titanium. Everyone talks about how good Mizuno irons feel, but their driver feels just as good. That muted crack at impact is so solid and powerful feeling. The combination of weighting, titanium and carbon all create this pure feeling at impact. #NothingFeelsLikeAMizuno.
The Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver has a variable thickness face to keep ball speeds high on miss hits. They use a different titanium than other brands: Forged SAT 2041 Beta Ti Face. This is a more complex and more resilient blend which allows them to manipulate the thickness more for even greater forgiveness and pop. When this face is paired with the CORETECH Chamber it creates fast ball speeds with lots of forgiveness.
The Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver has a weight set low and back on the sole of the driver which creates power along the Z-axis. This is key to straight drives. The weight along this line creates force in the direction the ball is going. While it won’t necessarily fix a slice or a hook, it works its magic to simply hit the ball straight. I’m amazed at how the line I aimed on and started the ball on was the same line that the ball ended on. I played some 90+ holes with this club and outside of a few terrible swings, this club hit the ball straight every time. If you can put a halfway decent swing on it, you will see straight drives that have low spin and slightly lower launch than the previous version.
The Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver comes stock with a number of stock shaft options, one being the Mitsubishi Chemical Kai’Li Blue 60 Stiff Shaft. This is a mid/low launch shaft with good spin control and amazing feel. It compliments all the features of the head with exceptional feel. This means smooth swings, mid launch and low spin for long drives with good carry and very straight.
Mizuno ST-Z 230 9.5* Driver Stats
Data from Flightscope Xi Tour Launch Monitor
➜ Spin: 2072 rpms
➜ Launch Angle: 13.5*
➜ Dispersion: 5.7 yds
➜ Club Head Speed: 103.2 mph
➜ Ball Speed: 153.8 mph
➜ Total Distance: 289.1 yds
➜ Carry Distance: 268.7 yds
Mizuno upped their game for 2023. The Mizuno ST-Z 230 Driver is straighter, lower spinning and a little lower launching for even straighter and longer drives thanks to the CORETECH Chamber. Compared to the other drivers in 2023, this one is the straightest. Don’t sleep on Mizuno because #NothingFeelsLikeAMizuno applies to their driver and has performance to match. If you could use a little more “straight” off the tee, this is as good as it gets. If you need some draw bias to cure a slice the ST-X 230 is your choice. But for straight, long, low spin drives, the Mizuno ST-Z 230 is the straightest driver of 2023.

NEWS AND EVENTS – SEBIT Interest In Computer Aided Education Have Doubled In 2011 11. This article needs additional citations for verification. Air Jordan is a brand of basketball footwear and athletic clothing produced by Nike. It was created for former professional basketball player Michael Jordan.
The original Air Jordan I sneakers were produced exclusively for Jordan in early 1984, and released to the public in late 1984. Since its introduction into the sports shoe market, the Air Jordans evolved from the original basketball shoes to models for different uses, including I-XXXII. The Air Jordan 1 was first produced for Michael Jordan in 1984. It was designed by Peter C. The success of the Air Jordan 1 encouraged Nike to release the New Air Jordan in 1986 for the new basketball season. Designed by Peter Moore and Bruce Kilgore, the original Air Jordan II was unique in that it was made in Italy.
The Air Jordan 2 also retailed with a full length encapsulated Nike air bubble for maximum comfort. The Air Jordan 2 was the first Jordan not to have the Nike swoosh on the upper. The Air Jordan III was designed by Tinker Hatfield who works for Nike as a designer for stores and offices. By that time Michael Jordan was ready to leave Nike, but the Jordan III changed his mind.

The specific promotions described in this article have now passed, but it remains online so that the resources named will be of future use to travelers.
With the 2006 Professional Golf Association tour picking up speed and the Golf Channel about to unveil a reality show for golfers with tryouts nationwide, it's time to get your swing back in shape. What better way to do it than a top-notch play-and-stay golf vacation to some of the best golf destinations in the United States? Lucky for you, online resources for golf vacations are improving with every new season. Here's a list of some sites where you can do everything from a book a trip to get a rundown on course information.
