IntroductionCycling has evolved into a popular mode of transportation, sport, and recreational activity. Whether you are a passionate cyclist or a casual bike enthusiast, the right clothing can significantly enhance your cycling experience. Technical cycling clothes and everyday casual wear may appear similar at a glance, but a closer examination reveals substantial differences. In this article, we will explore the key distinctions between these two types of apparel and why investing in the right gear can make a world of difference for cyclists.
1. Fabric and Material
Technical cycling clothes are specifically designed to meet the demands of cycling. They are typically constructed from high-performance materials that prioritize functionality, comfort, and breathability. Common fabrics used in cycling apparel include moisture-wicking polyester blends and synthetic fibers like nylon and spandex. These materials help regulate body temperature, wick sweat away from the skin, and provide a close yet comfortable fit to reduce wind resistance.
On the other hand, everyday casual wear often prioritizes style and versatility over technical performance. Casual clothes may be made from a variety of fabrics, including cotton, denim, and synthetic blends. While these materials are comfortable for daily wear, they lack the moisture-wicking and breathability features necessary for intensive physical activities like cycling.
2. Fit and Design
Technical cycling clothes come with a specialized design tailored to the rider's position on the bike. Jerseys, for instance, are usually longer at the back to cover the lower back when leaning forward, while shorts have a padded chamois to provide comfort and reduce friction during extended rides. These features are carefully engineered to ensure minimal chafing and unrestricted movement.
Casual wear, on the other hand, focuses on a more relaxed fit and varied designs to suit personal style preferences. While this is ideal for everyday activities, the loose fit and unnecessary seams in casual clothing may lead to discomfort and potential irritation during cycling.
3. Visibility and Safety
Cycling often involves sharing the road with motor vehicles, making visibility a crucial aspect of technical cycling clothing. Many cycling garments incorporate reflective elements, such as strips and logos, to enhance visibility in low-light conditions. This significantly reduces the risk of accidents and enhances safety during night rides.
Conversely, casual wear may not prioritize visibility, often leaving cyclists vulnerable when riding in low-light situations. Cyclists who choose to wear everyday clothes while biking should consider adding reflective accessories for their own safety.
4. Weather Protection
Technical cycling clothing takes into account various weather conditions, offering options for both warm and cold climates. For warm weather, cycling jerseys and shorts are designed to be lightweight and breathable, while thermal jackets and tights provide insulation in cold conditions. Additionally, technical clothes may include water-resistant and windproof features to protect against adverse weather conditions.
Everyday casual wear, while suitable for typical weather, might not provide the necessary protection from rain, wind, or extreme temperatures. Cyclists may find themselves uncomfortable and vulnerable to the elements when relying solely on regular clothes.
In conclusion, the differences between technical cycling clothes and everyday casual wear are substantial and cater to the unique demands of cycling. While casual wear is perfect for everyday activities, investing in specialized cycling apparel enhances comfort, safety, and performance during rides. The fabrics, fit, design, visibility, and weather protection offered by technical cycling clothes contribute to a more enjoyable and secure cycling experience. So, next time you hop on your bike, consider equipping yourself with the right gear to elevate your cycling adventures to new heights and when your not on the bike, feel free to wear whatever's nice. Happy cycling!

Mixed Martial Arts combines different arts and fighting techniques, including Boxing, Muay Thai, Judo, Karate, Wrestling, etc. However, MMA is quite an intolerant game, so one should use proper equipment to ensure safety and protection while working out. Practitioners usually wear MMA gloves to offer performance during training sessions. In addition, grappling gloves and Sparring gloves come with protecting knuckles and hands during a competition. The combat gear manufacturers design these gloves to support the wrists and add some extra strength to the fists.
It is essential to get the right gear to protect yourself, especially your hands, while having the grappling ability while moving around unrestricted. MMA gloves prevent your hands from injury during intense training sessions and competitions. Such gloves improve the chances of gripping, completing challenging moves, and enhancing performance. Boxing gloves or MMA gloves are essential for safe training so dig deeper to make the right decision. There are numerous gloves for MMA fighters depending on the type of training or competition.
Every kind of MMA glove serves a specific purpose.
The grappling gloves enhance finger movement to train well, along with some padding over each knuckle and finger. Adequate padding offers protection to your sparring partner, so it is much better for grappling. However, these gloves are best suited to practice grappling and clenching.
The Sparring gloves are used for practicing your striking. Therefore, they come with extra padding to protect your hands and your sparring partners while punching. Typically, these gloves weigh around 6-7 oz. There is a single large pad over the knuckles and fingers. Sparring gloves are similar to boxing gloves as they have a tight grip while punching. But the difference is gloves are fingerless, which makes them better than traditional gloves. Moreover, these gloves are ideal for striking accuracy and technique even during long, intense sessions.
The competition gloves come with less padding and weigh around 4oz. Usually, the weight depends on the competition rules. The finger slots are there for unrestricted movement, and the flexibility of fingers in competition gloves is more than in sparring gloves. This feature will be more effective during grappling moves. On the other hand, one must wear hand wraps during competition to ensure protection, as competition gloves have very little or no padding.
Gloves are essential to protect hands and knuckles along with the ability to grapple without any hindrance.
Mixed Martial Arts use various boxing techniques; although both sports are entirely different, the same gear won't work for both. MMA fighters adopt multiple positions, so they need gloves that ensure protection during movement.
Boxing gloves cover the entire hand, knuckles, and fingers to ensure protection, but they will not allow you to grapple or wrestle. Additionally, these gloves are heavier due to extra padding, and weight reduces movement. MMA gloves do not resist movement due to less padding and free movement.
The purpose of practice is Mixed Martial Arts, and MMA fighters use different gloves for sparring, competition, and working with heavy bags. While practicing sparring, you need a partner that is usually a coach or teammate, so without some padding, any wrong move can cause injury to him.
In contrast, while punching on a heavy bag, you do not need much padding for the protective covering of hands and fingers. Therefore, you need to add more protection during sparring to cover thin bones and the object. During the competition, the goal is to beat your opponent with the impact of each hit to cause damage. The suitable gloves allow any fighter to hit the opponent hard; that should be enough to win without causing severe damage.
If anyone is looking for training, sparring, or heading into the competition, two different palm designs come with potential advantages. One can choose any option that suits best their style
Mixed Martial Arts involves fast reflexes and movements with bare minimum protective gear. They design Sparring gloves and Grappling gloves in a way to protect hands and knuckles.
One must invest in MMA gloves and work on getting the right size for the best performance. After achieving the right thickness, design, and purpose, the next step is to get the right overall fit. Typically, MMA gloves come in small, medium, and large sizes, and some are even available in extra-large sizes. One must get the size that fits well as it will give an advantage in the long run.
Too big gloves make it hard to move your hands and lead to injuries in protection-lacking areas. Furthermore, too small sizes also restrict movements, cause circulation problems, and damage to hands.
Choosing the wrong style or cheap MMA gear can increase the chances of injuries, and you have to pay costs in the long run. However, choosing suitable MMA gloves for sparring, competition, and heavy bag work will make you grapple with your opponent quickly. Every fighter has their own merits depending on their demands. Always opt for the option that values the money, whereas glove material and padding are a personal preference.
Check here for the best quality boxing gloves, sparring gloves, and grappling gloves without breaking your bank and get something that performs well.

But he will continue as acting chief executive at Twickenham, chairman of Rugby World Cup 2015 - which will be staged in England - and as an RFU representative on the International Rugby Board.
The move followed a four-hour meeting of the RFU Council, which broke up at Twickenham around midday after discussing a review panel's 52-page verdict on the organisation's hiring.
The 58-man Council, it is understood, have decided that Paul Murphy will serve as interim RFU chairman, pending a Special General Meeting when Thomas' permanent replacement will be decided.
That meeting, though, cannot take place constitutionally for 60 days.
It is also believed that a vote of no confidence in the RFU management board was defeated by a majority verdict.

Nomex is the heaviest core option, which also makes it the loudest and most powerful. Paddles with this core tend to have the most “pop”.
Simply so, which is a better pickleball paddle?
The first factor to consider when choosing a pickleball paddle is the paddle’s weight. Pickleball paddles typically weigh between 4 and 14 ounces. A heavy paddle will drive the ball better than a light paddle. Conversely, a light paddle gives the player more control over the ball.
Also question is, how long should a pickleball paddle last?
Who is the best pickleball player?
Potential Injuries While Playing Pickleball
Any activity that has you stopping short, changing direction quickly and/or pivoting puts your knees at risk. Common injuries include sprains, and meniscal or ligament tears.

Training doesn't make you stronger. Say What?!
The act of exercising is catabolic which literally means "break down." Your whole body is under stress: muscle fibres are damaged, tendons and ligaments strained and glycogen stores are depleted. Yet, following a fitness program consistently will allow you to keep upping the weights, add muscle to your frame, and look + feel good. So what gives?
Simple - you are gaining strength, repairing damaged muscles & refilling glycogen stores during your recovery stage.
Scheduling days where you slow down, walk, stretch, flow or completely rest are just as important as scheduling your workouts. Yet, often it's hard for people to take a day or two off because of the belief that it will set them back in their performance and progress.
It seems easier to get to the gym and bust your butt than take a recovery day.
Squat 1RM stalled? More squatting!
Fat loss stalled? More cardio! is commonly the first thing people do in an attempt to get better results.
Here are 4 reasons why you need to make a mental adjustment and start believing that days in the yoga studio, or taking full days off from fitness are good for you, your strength, your fitness & your body composition.
1. REST BUILDS MUSCLE.
When you engage in strength training, you are essentially 'tearing' muscle fibres. The repair of these small tears is what causes the muscle to grow - for you to become stronger and for the change in your body composition to add muscle definition. Without a period of relative rest, your body does not get the opportunity to repair and grow. You are not getting the full benefit of your training if you are not resting.
2. YOUR PERFORMANCE WILL NOT SUFFER & WILL IMPROVE.
Generally speaking, it takes about 2 weeks of inactivity before you see a noticeable dip in your performance level. A day, or two off from training will not set you back from the hard work you've been putting it. In fact, a day or two off can lead to an even better training session when you return!
3. STAY SHARP
Taking a period of relative rest can keep your hunger for progress sharp, and help to prevent burnout. Mental fatigue can be as detrimental as physical fatigue. Taking a day off can recharge your body, and keep you excited for your training.
4. REST PREVENTS INJURIES
Taking a day off when something hurts might be common sense but still I hear "I thought it would go away" daily in my chiropractic clinic. Pushing too hard without time off can lead to overuse or repetitive strain injuries. These can take weeks and even months to recover from. Taking days off can be preventative and contribute to your longevity as an athlete.
Just like setting your performance goals, set your rest goals. What is something you want to accomplish on your day away from the gym? Get into the yoga studio for a flow? Hop on a spin bike for some steady state evercise? Go for a walk? Spend time playing pick-up with your kids? Look at your schedule and pick your weekly rest days. A day where your intense activity is limited to allow your body to recover. Try adding in a regular weekly rest day and I promise your fitness and health will only benefit.

From racing an Ironman 70.3 to climbing 6 mountains on 4 days in the French Pyrenees 2 weeks later. With the help of these periods I managed to recover quickly and smile to conquer the mountains.
Recovery after a triathlon or marathon is an essential part of a training plan. However, many athletes ignore this period.
Too bad, because if you ignore this period you risk injuries and increase the total recovery time of your triathlon or marathon. It also leads to stagnation of your progression and overtraining in the long run
Use these periods to help you recover properly.
The physical stress during a race is great for your body. All your systems run at maximum power. This actually causes damage to your body. It affects your muscles, it causes damage to your cells and it is an attack on your immune system.
The most obvious damage is of course to your muscles. This damage is not only caused by the race, but also by the period of training prior to the race. In a study both before and after the race inflammation and muscle fiber necrosis were measured in the calf muscles of marathon runners. Result: only 14 days after the race your muscles are back at full strength.
The impact on your immune system is great. Your resilience is reduced for a period of time after the race. During this period you are more susceptible to diseases or a cold. According to various studies among athletes, the immune system has been compromised for about 3 days.
The damage to your cells is mainly oxidation damage, increased production of creatinine kinase, and increased myoglobin level in your blood.
- Oxidation damage
- Creatine kinase is an enzyme that mainly occurs in organs that use a lot of energy. It plays a role in the production of ATP, the universal fuel of body cells. Research concludes that the increased production of creatinine kinase lasts 7 days.
- Myoglobin is an oxygen-binding protein that transports oxygen. Myoglobin is produced in case of damage to muscle tissue. Your body needs 3 to 4 days to get the myoglobin out of the blood.
Through these 3 phases of recovery you promote the recovery of your body in the days and weeks after a race. This way you are not only physically rested but also mentally ready for a new training period.
- 1-2/3 days after race
No training or cross training. Your body must first restore your blood values to normal. Support your body by drinking enough water and eating healthily. Take plant-based foods with sufficient carbohydrates and proteins to promote your recovery. Green vegetables, legumes and fruit are good foods.
- 2/3 days – 14 days after the race
<Now that your blood values slowly return to normal and your resilience improves, you can quietly resume your workouts. Listen carefully to your body, because you don’t want to go into red. All at a low intensity. Each day you will see what you can handle. During this period you gradually rebuild the sense and strength to start a new training block.
- 1 – 3 weeks after the race
You’re in the mood for it again. The race is behind you. The lessons of the previous race have been discussed with your coach. Let the new training schedule begin. But beware! Build up the intensity of your new schedule slowly. You’ve been training more quietly for a few weeks, so don’t expect miracles. The first weeks of your new schedule focus on getting used to the intensity of training again.
Keep in mind that the above periods depend on the length of your race. For a complete Ironman the periods are a bit longer, while a sprint triathlon requires less long recovery periods.
Fit and fresh
Recovery is essential for future performance and to prevent injuries. But also to be mentally fresh at the beginning of a training period. The duration of recovery from damage to your muscles, recovery of your immune system and damage to your body cells is different. Respect these periods and give yourself the chance to recharge your batteries for upcoming races!
I always like to do some coffee rides with friends during these periods. A quiet round with a nice stop for a cup of coffee on the way. Just not paying attention to heartbeats, intervals and distances.
I am curious how you recover from a race. Let me know in the comments!

Cycling can get a little scary at times, especially on busy roads or technical race courses. If you find that your training and racing is being hindered by a lack of bike handling skills and nervousness on the roads, we're here to help.
Practice your bike handling skills
This is something that all cyclists should be doing in order to improve their training and racing. If you lack proper bike handling skills, you will find that technical courses are a nightmare and that unforeseen circumstances like bad weather could mean a premature end to your race.
Skills such as riding on loose gravel, on wet roads, down steep descents, and round sharp bends are things that come with practice. Start off slow and somewhere you know well and build yourself up; the more you practice, the more your confidence will grow. Other skills such as single-leg riding can be practised indoor on a Wattbike, turbo trainer, or even just a stationary gym bike.
Ride in a group
They say there's safety in numbers, and this can certainly be true when cycling. When cycling in a fairly large group, you'll find that hazards become less scary as you can watch those up ahead tackle them first and motorists should give you more space.
Of course, that's not to say that cycling in a group is always safer and that you're guaranteed not to have run-ins with cars. However, working together as a team to overcome tough conditions can really help with your confidence.
Other skills to practice when riding in a group include making contact with other cyclists and riding very close to others. Your instinctive reaction when touched by another cyclist will be to look around at the person you've touched, but it's important to stay looking ahead at where you're going. Practice making quick contact with a friend or fellow group rider and then move on to practising keeping your hand on their shoulder as you ride. Skills such as this can improve your confidence in mass start events and will mean you know what to expect.
Get comfortable in the saddle
Receiving a proper bike fit from an accredited bike store can make a huge difference to your cycling, and it doesn't have to be expensive. Unless you're looking to really maximise your power output and aero position for serious racing, a basic bike fit can be inexpensive or even free of charge.
If you're comfortable in the saddle and your position over the handlebars feels good, you will feel much safer on the bike. If you constantly feel like you're over-reaching for the handlebars and brakes or that your legs are overstretched and you can't reach the ground comfortably, you might feel more nervous on your bike. Once you feel secure and like the bike is an extension of yourself, you will be able to handle it much more confidently and co-operate better together. Make sure you're in control of the bike and not the other way round!
Do a sportive
If you're nervous to ride on busy roads or in places you don't know well, it's a good idea to ride an organised race or sportive. These will always be well sign-posted so that you can't go the wrong way and you will be forced to face any challenging conditions that you'd usually avoid on your own.
This will be a great way of getting out of your comfort zone by riding somewhere unknown and having to face challenges head-on.
Once the initial novelty has worn off, it can be hard to stay motivated when working out at home. Here are 5 top tips to help you maximise your workout time and get the best results with limited resources.
1. Change into activewear
It can be tempting to stay in your comfortably pyjamas all day and to even do your workout in them, but this won't help with motivation or with a good workout. Change into your activewear like you would when going for a run or to the gym so that there is a definite difference between rest time and workout time. Being comfortable and able to move freely will also improve the quality of your workout and will mean you won't be worried about working up too much of a sweat and ruining your comfy clothes!
2. Remove all distractions
When we're at the gym, we're able to just plug in our music, zone out the rest of the world, and get on with a great workout. Unfortunately, at home there might be any number of distractions from kids and pets to noisy neighbours or the temptation to have the TV on in the background. Eliminate as many distractions as you can so that you can focus on your workout and make the most of your exercise time.
3. Set a time and stick to it
When there is no clear line between your home space and your workout space, it can be easy to keep putting off your workout and finding other things to do. Set a specific time of day when you're going to work out and make sure you stick to it. If you're at home with a partner and children, let them know what time you intend to exercise so that they know not to bother you and allow you the time to get on with your training.
4. Choose your workout routine in advance
Making your workout up as you go along is never a good idea, even when going to the gym. By having a great workout routine already written down, you know that you'll have a meaningful workout and your time won't be wasted scrolling through your phone or thinking up the next exercise. It will also mean you're more likely to workout for longer and not give up after only a couple of exercises.
5. Have a dedicated space
One of the hardest things about being stuck indoors is that your home becomes your office, your canteen, your kids' school, and your gym. It can be difficult to get motivated to workout in your living room if this is a space you usually associate with relaxing at the end of the day, and it can become equally difficult to relax if you start associating certain spaces with educating your kids or working out.
Try to dedicate certain areas of your home for different chores and activities. Have a dedicated workout space away from where you usually relax. If you can't do this because you don't have enough space in your house, not to worry! There are ways around it, such as rolling out a yoga mat in your living room to turn it into your workout space, and then putting the yoga mat away again once you're done.
Resistance bands are a great way to get a workout in wherever you are. You don't need expensive equipment or even a gym membership, just a resistance band and your body weight. Follow this resistance band workout with exercises for arms and legs for a full body workout that will get results.
What are the benefits of resistance bands?
There are many benefits to using a resistance band to workout. They are very convenient and portable so you can take them with you wherever you go for an outdoor or home workout. You could even take your resistance band on holiday to keep your fitness and strength ticking over while you're away.
Body weight exercises are great, but adding resistance will really ramp up your workout and give you better results. By using a resistance band you can increase the return on your workout and get better results in a shorter time. They are not only great for strength workouts, but also for lower intensity training like stretching and physio.
Resistance band exercises for legs
Using a resistance band when you train your legs can not only strengthen the muscles but also the joints and supporting muscles which will lead to better balance and reduced risk of injury. Try some of these resistance band exercises for the legs and feel the burn!
Place the resistance band around your ankles and stand square with your hands on your hips. Find your balance on your left leg and lift your right leg out to the side as far as you can. Make sure you keep your foot facing forwards and squeeze from the hip. Repeat 10 reps on each leg.
With the resistance band still round your ankles, this time squeeze your bum and lift your leg out behind you, keeping the leg straight. This will really challenge your glutes and hamstrings as well as working your core. Do 10 reps on one leg then swap and do 10 on the other.
Lie on the floor and bend your knees so that your feet are flat on the floor. With the resistance band just above your knees, lift your back off the floor and squeeze your bum into the air. Keep your arms and hands flat on the floor and use them to help push you up. Keep your knees out and push them against the resistance from the band. Do 10 repetitions.
This is a great exercise if you've got flat feet or if you struggle with your squat form. Place the band just above your knees and make sure you use a fairly light weight. Drop into a squat, but keep your knees pushed outwards against the resistance of the band the entire time. You'll notice that they want to cave in, so stay strong. You'll realise how much you need to use your glutes to fire you back up, and this will highlight any muscle weaknesses. Try 3 sets of 10 reps.
Sundried recently ran a poll and found that 80% of people felt nervous the first time they set foot in a gym. This statistic doesn't come as a surprise as the combined fear of the unknown and feeling self conscious can make going to the gym a difficult step for a lot of people. We're here with our top tips so that you can feel confident in the gym and enjoy your workouts more.
Wear the right activewear
If you look good, you'll feel good. If you're wearing old fitness clothing that doesn't fit properly, you are far more likely to feel self-conscious and constantly worry about how you look, distracting you from your workout. By treating yourself to good quality activewear such as cute sports bras and flattering gym leggings for the ladies and a well-fitting technical gym t-shirt for men, you will instantly have the confidence you need to go and do an awesome workout.
Go with a buddy
If you're too nervous to hit the gym alone, buddy up and take a friend with you. With a trusted pal by your side you will instantly feel protected from whatever it was that was causing you anxiety and you'll be able to workout together and enjoy your time. Having a friend to go with can alsoboost your motivation when you don't feel like going to the gym.
Get stuck in
The free weights area can be a daunting place, especially for women. One of the best ways to get over this fear is just to get stuck in and head over there. If the free weights area seems very busy and full of grunting men from afar, once you're in it and you've found your space you'll realise that it doesn't feel as busy and all the guys are just busy getting on with their own workouts and aren't paying any attention to you.
If it's the other people in the gym that seem scary, the best thing you can do is befriend them. They're just people after all! Not only this, they are like-minded people who have the same goal as you and so chances are you will get on well. Strike up a conversation by asking someone about their workout or their goals to break the ice.
However, make sure you don't interrupt someone when they are in the middle of a lift or exercise as you may put them off and annoy them. Save the chatting for when they are resting or finishing up their workout.
Ask a professional
If you're nervous because you're not sure what to do at the gym or how any of the machines work, go ahead and ask one of the personal trainers or fitness coaches. It's what they're there for! A member of staff will also be more than happy to help you out and show you the ropes, some personal trainers will even offer you a complimentary training session. Most if not all gyms also offer a free induction when you first join. If you missed this and are no longer a 'new' member, most gyms will still be happy to honour the free induction and have someone show you around.
Staying fit and active in winter takes a lot of motivation and it can be easy to succumb to hibernation mode and comfort food. Try this heart-pumping winter metcon workout to keep your fitness up this festive period.

Which folding exercise bikes are best?
Bicycling is a practical, multipurpose form of exercise, but some traditional bikes are cumbersome and difficult to transport. Folding exercise bikes offer a portable, more compact option for customers who value transport.
When choosing a folding exercise bike, there are many features to keep in mind. Ease of storage, material quality and price are just a few important considerations. For a fully featured option that doesn’t sacrifice quality for convenience, the Swagtron EB-7 Elite Plus Folding Electric Bike is a seven-speed model with a 19-mile electric battery and enhanced rear suspension.
What to know before you buy a folding exercise bike
Bicycling is a great means of transportation, and folding bikes help commuters by being incredibly portable. A folding bike’s weight determines how easy it is to transport and how much weight it can support. A bike with a heavier frame will be able to carry heavier riders, but a frame with more weight could make the bike difficult to fold and transport. However, a lighter bike will often be easier to fold and transport, although this comes with a sacrifice in sturdiness.
What a bike is made of is incredibly important. There are two materials commonly used in a bike’s frame: aluminum and steel. Aluminum is lightweight, convenient and cheaper than steel. In addition, the relatively low weight of an aluminum frame makes it easier to fold. The downside is that aluminum is less shock-absorbent than steel, meaning it will be necessary to consider suspension. On the other hand, steel is naturally shock-absorbent, allowing for smooth and easy rides. Sadly, steel frames are less common because they are heavier and typically more expensive.
Gearing is a key factor to consider when purchasing quality folding exercise bikes. Bikes with multiple gears help you adapt to different surfaces and trails with hills. A high gear is best for fast riding, while a low gear is best for ascending a steep surface. What’s more, some folding bikes are single gear, meaning that customers will not be able to change the gear, limiting where the bike can be used and leading to difficulty while pedaling.
What to look for in a quality folding exercise bike
Folding bikes typically have wheels with 16- or 20-inch diameters, though some come with 26-inch wheels. Bikes with larger wheels are higher performing and can withstand tough terrain, but larger wheels add to the bike’s size, making folding more difficult. The ease of folding and transport makes smaller, 16-inch wheels common in folding bikes. The drawback to a bike with smaller wheels is that it will be less stable on rough surfaces.
While the bike’s frame and wheels are what you see first, the pedals are an essential component. The best folding bikes will include folding pedals, making the product more compact and easy to store.
Be sure to also consider the material of the pedals, as some plastic pedals are seen as lacking in quality when compared to those made from sturdier material.
An advantage to biking is that it causes no joint strain the way running does. Still, be on the lookout for folding bikes with full suspension, as they will give you an even smoother ride. If a bike has a steel frame or large wheels, which are more shock-absorbent and allow for smoother control, suspension is less of a concern.
How much you can expect to spend on a folding exercise bike
Size, weight, suspension and additional features all factor into a folding exercise bike’s cost. Generally, you can expect most folding bikes to cost from $100-$600, though some high-end models cost up to $4,000.
Folding exercise bike FAQ
How do folding exercise bikes compare to standard bikes in terms of structural quality?
A. In order to properly fold, a folding bike will contain one or more hinges or joints, but this does not have to affect the quality of your folding bike. The vast majority of modern folding bikes are sturdy and safe, often matching the quality of standard bikes.
Are folding exercise bikes adjustable to suit users of different heights?
A. While weight and wheel size vary, most adult folding bikes are designed to be one-size-fits-all. Like traditional models, folding bikes have adjustable seats and handlebars that let you customize your riding experience. It is advised to physically test a folding bike before making a purchase.
Does a folding exercise bike require more pedaling?
A. Compared to other options on the market, folding bikes typically have smaller pedals and wheels. However, this does not mean that you will need to pedal faster. The front chain and gearing are designed to compensate for the smaller pedals, meaning that you will be able to pedal at a normal pace.

After spending about a month, over 10 CrossFit workouts, and a number of runs in my New Balance Minimus Life shoes I’m ready to write a quality shoe review.
I had wanted to test/review a pair of the New Balance Minimus’s for quite some time. I have a few friends that swear by them as their go to CrossFit training, road running, and trail running shoes, so I was dying to give them a try.
When you first slide the New Balance Minimus Life on your feet they feel amazingly comfortable like very light weight slippers. The Life Minimus’s don’t have traditional laces, they have non adjustable thick elastic laces. This makes is very easy to slip them on and off. I don’t like my shoes too tight unless I’m trail running, and I don’t plan on using these for the trails, so I love the elastic laces.
The New Balance Minimus’s are very light wight, which I love, but the toe box gets a little narrow for me to have an ideal fit. Unfortunately getting a wider size wouldn’t help because the heel and arch of the shoe fit great. My foot is somewhat narrow near the heel and with a wider forefoot. To some extent the toe box has stretched and conformed to my feet, but there’s still a little rubbing on my third and forth toes. I give the fit a 7 our of 10 for my feet, but they could fit your feet great. They would get a 10 out of 10 for fit if my toes didn’t slightly rub.
The Road Ride
The Minimus has a cushy but thin rubber/foam bottom. It’s a great combination of being able to feel the ground, but not having rocks destroy your feet. I give the road (and other flat surface) ride a 10 out of 10!
The CrossFit Ride
One of the major reasons that I wanted to get a pair of New Balance Minimus’s was to crush CrossFit workouts. For the most part these are great CrossFit training shoes. Your feet stay comfy and very light durning box jumps and double unders, and can feel the ground during dead lifts and squats. The only issue that I ran into while CrossFitting was when running and having to cut quickly. When I cut quickly my foot slid around in the shoe and resulted in an unstable environment. As a CrossFit shoe I give them an 8 out of 10.
If you’re going to slide these shoes on with your favorite jeans they are the bomb! Quick to get on, comfy like your favorite slippers, and can do anywhere. For Just chillin’ I give the Minimus’s get a 10 outta 10!

Sun Dolphin Bali SS Kayak 10 vs 12 Foot
What are the price differences between these two different sizes, are they good fishing kayaks
One very common question asked by anglers just getting into the sport of kayak fishing, “Is there a good, cheap sit-on-top fishing kayak I can buy?”. Considering the hefty price tag of many models on the market, finding something cheap can be quite a daunting task.
And also, when you’re a beginner just starting out in the sport, the task of finding a good, inexpensive fishing kayak can become even more difficult since you may not have any experience at all in judging the quality of a kayak.
The bad news, these types of kayaks can be very expensive. Some run over $3000! And if you ask, many experienced anglers will say you will need to spend at least $700 or $800.
But the Good News is…
There are more than a few quality choices for you that won’t hurt your wallet too much… But you need to be realistic your not going to get anything worthwhile for $150.
The Sun Dolphin Bali SS Kayak
In our opinion this is one of the best cheap fishing kayaks on the market. It has a dry storage compartment behind the seat, bungees in the front and back (for holding extra gear), it has rod holders, foot braces all the common components of a true fishing kayak.
It comes in three different sizes:
- 8 Feet
- 10 Feet
- 12 Feet
We want to make sure you know this. The 8 foot version of this model is not actually a fishing kayak, it doesn’t come with rod holders or foot braces.
10 and 12 Foot are both made for Fishing
Bali SS 10 vs 12
If you are thinking or concerned about price. The 10 foot model is going to be less expensive by almost $200. This price difference is astounding.
Many kayaks models have both 10 and 12 foot versions. The 10 and 12 foot of the Bali have the largest price difference we have even seen.
Not sure why…
You should be able to buy the 12 foot Bali SS online for just under $500. This is not a bad price but if you are will to pay $500 there are many other models by other companies you might also want to consider.
What we think is the Best Deal
Sun Dolphin Bali SS 10 Foot kayak has a price tag of right around $300. There is no question… For the price, this model is absolutely one of the best fishing kayaks you can buy.
It’s very lightweight at 44 pounds and has a weight capacity of 250. If oyu want something cheap to get into the water this is quality choice. Our only precaution, if you are super tall with long legs this might not be a good fit. Bit if you are around 6 feet tall or shorter this should fit you just fine.
If you need other suggestions we have 100′s of different kayak reviews on this site. You might want to check out our homepage.

These have a nice wrap to face. Have a solid feel yet not to heavy considering there is metal on them. Banged them up in the pocket skiing, and they held together like it never happened. I have the matte black/black iridium.
I have ridden in this helmet since its release. Its is a bit larger looking than a D2. Carbon is lighter than the composite, and more impact protection that the D2. The shape is more aerodynamic. Has removable liner washable liner. Has more ventilation than the D2. I have only used it for skiing.
I have been using these helmets for skiing and DH mtbing for many years, the D2 is the original Troy Lee full face. The exterior size fits well with your head size, meaning you don't look like a bobble head. Works well with goggles, yet you can fog easily while standing still. Fit is true to size and has a secure chin strap. If your gonna send it, get one.
It fits well and is easy to take on and off. Have only used for skiing. Make it very tight for best results, some like extensions to get the camera up and more adjustability, but to much and back to bounce cam. Is kind of bulky for storage in pack, but I use small packs.
These fit and feel great. Yet getting them on and off can be a challenge. They are thin. I have been skiing in a sock like this for the last 4 years and its made a big difference on my all day comfort. If you are having feet problems and spend to much time tinkering with getting you boots to feel better this is a great place to start.

Avoid Wearing a Tent Heavy waxed cotton, oilskins, or even plastic capes might be good if you are on foot, but they seldom do much good when you are on a cycle.
They leave your feet and legs exposed to the wet thrown up from the road and act like a sail in any wind..

How do I protect my balls when cycling?
PreventionStand out of the saddle and pedal regularly to allow blood flow to resume to the testes and genitalia.Choose a pair of padded bicycle shorts which will provide protection to your undercarriage while cycling.More items…•
Are bike shorts worth it?
Are Bike Shorts Necessary? While you don’t need bike shorts to ride a bike, you won’t see many cyclists – least of all racers – opting against them. It’s worth trying a pair. Many riders find it’s a lot more pleasant to pedal with bike shorts than without.
Why do cyclists wear tight clothes?
To a beginner, cyclists seem to do some odd things. They wear tight clothing, they ride downhill in a tucked position, and they ride very closely together. … The main thing that slows cyclists down is drag. Drag is a backward force created by air friction.
Why do cyclists wear bib shorts?
The chamois stays in place. Traditional cycling shorts will end up slipping down over time, and that means the chamois, or pad, will shift as well. … Bib shorts by nature are designed in a way that guarantees the chamois stays perfectly in place.
Should cyclist shave their legs?
Reasons to shave your legs as a cyclist One of the main reasons professional cyclists shave their legs is to make their frequent post-ride massages more comfortable. … If you are riding in messy conditions, hair will also attract and hold a lot more dirt compared to smooth legs which will also then be easier to clean.
Do you wear anything over bike shorts?
Padded cycling shorts can help make your ride much more comfortable, but should you wear underwear underneath them? The short answer is no – you do not wear underwear or knickers under padded bike shorts. The pad is designed to sit next to the skin.
Do you wear undies under bike shorts?
Rule #1 – you do NOT wear your underwear under cycling shorts. Having a pair of cotton underwear inside your cycling shorts negates all of the benefits provided (friction control, moisture management). If you have bib shorts or bib knickers, your cycling jersey goes OVER the bib straps, not under.
Can you use Vaseline instead of chamois cream?
A lot of riders swear by petroleum jelly (or diaper rash ointments containing it) as cheaper versions of chamois cream, but that can actually be a costly mistake. The petroleum jelly won’t wash out of your chamois properly, can trap bacteria in there, and can wreck the antimicrobial treatment, explains Mathews.
How does chamois cream work?
Chamois cream helps to prevent friction between the skin and your saddle, some types are anti-bacterial and might even have a cooling effect on your skin. … However, it works really well when you spend a lot of time in the saddle, like long rides and multi-day bike adventures such as stage races and extended bike travel.
Why are cycling shorts so long?
Cycling shorts should fit like a second skin, snug and comfortable with no bagging or wrinkles. Leg lengths vary anywhere from 3 to 10 1/2 inches. Traditional wool racing shorts were usually cut long so that the fabric covered the quadriceps muscle, keeping the short from riding up into the crotch and chafing.
Why does cycling hurt your bum?
It’s normal for your butt to feel slightly sore after a ride, because when you sit on a bike seat, most of your weight gets distributed on two very small bones on the bottom of your pelvis. That can lead to soreness, especially if you’re on a long ride, explains Maddy Ciccone, a SoulCycle instructor in Boston.
Are padded bike shorts worth it?
Cycling shorts are really tight. They make a strong fashion statement — and not necessarily in a good way. But the truth is that padded cycling shorts make cycling much more comfortable and efficient, and help you ride faster and longer. If you’re going to get serious about road riding, you’ll want to wear them.
Can you wear 2 pairs of cycling shorts?
Yes – I regularly wear two pairs of padded shorts on longer rides. Or a pair of padded shorts with a pair of padded bib tights on top. Also plenty of chamois cream and a good shower afterwards.
Can you wear cycling shorts under jeans?
YES and you can wear whatever you want. The problem with wearing denim or any fabric that fades and wears easily is a sweat ring around the rump. Certain fabrics don’t do well and deteriorate from rubbing and sweat even with the bike shorts worn under.
How do I make my bike seat not hurt?
Let’s review!Stand on the pedals once in a while (or at least shift your position on the seat).Adjust the tilt of your saddle.3 Grease Up.Try a different style underwear.Adjust your bike.Get a pair of real bike shorts (and ditch the underwear altogether)Lose weight… Eat less, ride more.Change your saddle.More items…
How long should bike shorts last?
Those should last 3 months to a year when laundered weekly. Cheaper ones tend to last 3-6 months, better ones closer to a year. I’ve had some shocking experiences with branded cheap shorts lasting a month, and other times apparently identical shorts will last a year. I regard anything over 6 months as a win.
How often should you wash cycling shorts?
Bike shorts – no, not after every use. If it’s a long ride, I will. Otherwise, I wash them about every 3-4 rides.

To call YT the biggest disruptor of the mountain bike industry in the last decade is probably not an exaggeration. The biggest success story of the direct-sales model, they’ve put fear in the eyes of big players by offering cheap high-end bikes while building a local presence with good, proven support.
The new Capra comes in both aluminium and carbon versions, both 27.5” and 29”. All are equally burly with massive tubing, wide pivots and the signature brace across the front triangle. I like the brace – the seat tube gets a very hard life when there’s a pivot halfway up it, and the brace is telling me that the Capra is all about strength and less fussed about water bottle compatibility. Something else that alludes to this bike’s intentions is the travel: The 27.5” wheeled bike is 170mm or 180mm, and the 29er either 160mm or 170mm depending on spec. Despite this, weight is competitive with our large 27 CF Pro sitting at 13.4kg without pedals.
Head angle: 65°. Seat tube angle: 76°. Low bottom bracket. Chainstays: 427mm in short and medium, 432mm in L to XXL. Awesome that it’s no longer just Norco scaling chainstays with size. Reach: your choice. And I mean that – YT have kept the seat tube lengths fairly short, and between the five sizes most people will find that they have some degree of choice as to how much length they want in the front triangle. I’m used to having only one viable option – the largest frame I can slam a 150mm dropper into without the seat being too high – so looking at the sizing and finding that a 6’ tall person could easily choose anything from Medium to XL depending on their leg length and ape index was a pleasant surprise. I chose my usual, the Large, but you gorillas out there with long torsos, long arms and short legs may have found your new favourite thing.
This is not the spec you’re used to. One: because at $6999 this carbon build kicks the pants off anything else in the price range, and two: because rather than the disappointingly SRAM-plastered builds I’m tired of seeing this is a well thought out, effective collection of parts.
Fox is on dropper and suspension duty with a Transfer seatpost and 36 fork/X2 shock, both Float Performance Elite – that means air sprung with the good dampers. We get E13 TRS+ wheels, cassette, chainring and tires, XTR shifter and derailleur, SRAM Code RSC 200mm brakes, and a Next R carbon crankset and Turbine R cockpit with 40mm stem and 800mm bar from Race Face. SDG Fly saddle and ODI Elite Motion grips.
The Goat Descends
YT are proud of their hooligan image, and it’s certainly well deserved with their dirt-jumping roots and the huge success of their Tues downhill bike in the freeride scene. You could be forgiven for writing them off as simple, unrefined, or built to huck, had Aaron Gwin not turned his utter domination of the downhill circuit up to eleven aboard a bone-stock Tues during his first year with YT in 2016. The truth is that tattooed hooligans doing backflips need all the refinement and performance a bike can offer, and getting rowdy on the trail is the most fun when you’ve got a bike that’s cool, calm and collected to watch your back.
Freeride bikes of old never had a future. Despite freeride being alive and well, I bet when you think of a “freeride bike” it’s probably an old Kona or a Rocky Mountain being flogged to death on the North Shore. By the time freeride was big enough to have bikes named after it, they were just DH bikes that had been gimped by the manufacturer with a single crown fork, worse geometry, and if you were particularly unlucky a 24” rear wheel. Aside from the odd “park bike” that the industry didn’t want to assign the F-word to, we either gave up and rode DH bikes or clenched our teeth and swore that our trail bikes were “just as good, honest!”, with their tiny wheelbases, steep angles and flexy parts. At least we made it up the hill.
This is where I actually get to my point in what is supposed to be a ride report... Freeride is back! But not as we know it.
There are very few DH trails I’ve ridden where I’d confidently put money on my downhill bike being faster than the Capra, and I’ve never felt that way about a trail bike before. There are certainly no trails that are out of its depth. It’s not that the bike is super-slack or super-long; it’s pretty normal for an aggressive trail bike these days. It’s how the bike is balanced and how “in” the bike I am, how solid and trustworthy the stiff frame feels, and how damn well that suspension works.
The 36 fork up front is a gem, and would be my pick of the bunch thanks to its awesome stiffness, good air spring and exceptional responsiveness and damping. Gone are the days where the 36 only felt good when you’re at race pace.
At the rear the Capra’s V4L suspension design is tuned so that the last few millimetres of travel is hard to get to – there’s nothing but supple grip through the top and mid stroke thanks to the superb Fox X2 shock, but the progressive linkage ramps up substantially to give a very supportive and well controlled end of stroke. It’s a very different feeling than simply packing a shock full of volume spacers – rather than feeling rampy and uncontrolled the Capra feels like it gains an extra 10mm of travel when you really push it in to something rough and nasty, and the bike recovers from big hits so predictably that it’s begging you to find the bottom-out. 170mm doesn’t feel like too much travel – for the most part it’s happy in its mid-travel and feels supportive there.
The V4L design provides what I’d describe as an invisible pedalling platform – there’s no bob, there’s no discernable pedal feedback through the suspension that I’ve noticed, and it’s predictable when on the gas in any gear, even over rough stuff. The braking performance is similar – works great, stays neutral, no weird stuff.
The Capra rips corners, the low BB giving big confidence and the low slung frame giving so much room to move on the bike. The bike is quick to lay over so stacked corners are easy, even if they’re tight. Given how hard it can be pushed though, it’s writing cheques that the rear tire can’t cash. The E13 tires have awesome grip but the single ply casing is a bit unstable in my opinion, rolling a little in corners and feeling a little wobbly when loaded up. More pressure helps, but a dual ply tire keeps that compliance while feeling stable. I’d prefer something faster rolling for the rear as well.
The Capra then, is a bike that has my back – aside from its rubber I can’t fault its downhill prowess and over these last two months I’ve come to trust it. I’d ride anything on it from big senders to DH tracks to off-piste scree chutes halfway up a mountain, and unlike the freeride bikes of old I’d be happy riding or carrying the thing back to the top to do it all again.
Wait, isn’t this an enduro bike?
I don’t like that term. The Jeffsy, YT’s shorter travel trail bike is a perfect bike for many enduro races. The Capra is the perfect bike for other, more gnarly ones. They are very different bikes.
I saw someone on Pinkbike refer to these longer travel enduro bikes as “double-black-diamond trail bikes” and thought it was smart – trail bikes that go great up hill, but for gnarly stuff. I liked it until I realised we’re just avoiding the F-word all over again. This is the Freeride bike I’ve always wanted. F*#k yeah.
It also climbs!
This isn’t a Jeremy Clarkson style review where I go on about something’s merits before trashing it in the last part of the piece. The Capra climbs pretty well, and to prove it I gave it to a few people that ride your average 150-160mm bikes and sent them up a hill. I got a “pedals well!”, a “huh, this is better than my bike”, and a “the position is really nice.”
That sums it up – it puts you in a good position on the bike, has a very neutral response to pedal input, and allows you to get on with it. Of course with that much suspension travel technical climbing can suffer a bit, especially when there are holes to grab your tires. The bottom bracket is also quite low meaning that pedal strikes weren’t uncommon. The rear shock does have a lever to firm it up and although I never needed it to combat bob, it did make technical stuff a bit easier. This is all stuff you should expect from any bike over 150mm, so this is definitely a victory for the Goat.
So the spec is unusual... How was it?
Flawless. A welcome contrast. Nothing broke, nothing sucked, and nothing needed maintenance. The e13 wheels were thrown at rocks with no ill effects, and the E13 cassette paired with the XTR drivetrain is excellent – it does super-wide range better than SRAM Eagle because the shifting in the lower gears is a little smoother and you’re less likely to be blowing up a derailleur. The E13 wheels do have a Shimano hub driver available to let you match your cassette to the derailleur if you prefer, but I was pleasantly surprised by the E13.
The Code brakes are stonkingly powerful and consistent with better modulation than the Shimano 4-pots, though if you’ve got small hands the reach to the shifter may be a little far (psst, there’s SRAM-to-Shimano matchmaker adapters online that fix this if needed). The Fox transfer dropper is awesome and their suspension is at the top of the game. Even right down to the ODI grips the spec is unbeatable.
Look, my biggest complaint is that the bike is too good for the rear tire it comes with. If you want a refined bike that you can get stupid on, then go buy it. If you want to get serious and race it then I’d say that’d go pretty well for you too because enduro only seems to be getting gnarlier. Once I manage to sell my trail bike I’m buying one of these myself.

Progressive Muscle Growth by semaglutide 5mg vial refers to the gradual increase in the size and strength of muscles over time. It involves a strategic and sustained approach to resistance training, where the intensity of workouts is progressively adjusted to stimulate continuous muscle development. Essentially, it’s about consistently challenging your muscles to adapt and grow.
Importance of Progressive Muscle Growth in Bodybuilding
Progressive Muscle Growth is a fundamental concept in bodybuilding for several reasons. It forms the core principle that drives muscle hypertrophy, which is the process of muscle cells increasing in size. Achieving this growth is crucial for bodybuilders aiming to enhance their physique, strength, and overall athletic performance.
- Strength Improvement: Progressive Muscle Growth is directly linked by buy arimidex uk to strength gains. As muscles grow, they become more robust, enabling individuals to lift heavier weights and perform more challenging exercises.
- Metabolic Benefits: Increasing muscle mass through progressive growth has metabolic advantages. Muscles are metabolically active tissues, and as they grow, they can contribute to a higher basal metabolic rate, aiding in weight management and fat loss.
- Injury Prevention: Well-developed muscles provide better support for joints and bones, reducing the risk of injuries during physical activities. Progressive Muscle Growth, when approached systematically, helps create a solid and resilient musculoskeletal system.
Setting Clear Goals
Before embarking on a fitness journey, it’s crucial to understand your fitness objectives clearly. This involves reflecting on what you hope to achieve through bodybuilding, whether building muscle mass, improving overall strength, enhancing endurance, or performing a specific aesthetic goal. Understanding your objectives helps tailor your workout and nutrition plans to align with your unique aspirations.
Once you’ve identified your fitness objectives, the next step is to set realistic and achievable goals through thermo lipid. This involves breaking down your broader aspirations into smaller, manageable targets. Realistic goals are crucial for maintaining motivation and ensuring sustained progress.
- Specificity: Clearly define what you want to achieve. Instead of a vague goal like “get fit,” opt for specific targets like “increase bench press by 10 pounds” or “reduce body fat by 3%.”
- Measurability: Ensure that your goals are measurable so that you can track your progress. Use quantifiable metrics such as weight lifted, body measurements, or workout frequency.
- Achievability: Set goals that are challenging yet attainable. Unrealistic goals can lead to frustration, while achievable goals provide a sense of accomplishment and motivation.
- Relevance: Align your goals with your overall fitness objectives. Each goal should contribute to the larger picture of what you want to achieve in your bodybuilding journey.
- Time-bound: Establish a timeline for your goals. This creates urgency and helps you stay focused on your progress.
Designing a Customized Workout Plan
Crafting a personalized workout plan is essential for achieving your fitness goals effectively. A well-designed program considers your needs, fitness level, and specific objectives. Before starting any workout program, assess your overall health. Consult a healthcare professional or fitness expert if you have any pre-existing medical conditions or concerns.
Choosing the Right Exercises:
Compound vs. Isolation Exercises: Integrate a mix of compound (multi-joint) and isolation (single-joint) exercises. Compound movements engage multiple muscle groups and are effective for overall strength and muscle development.
Exercise Variety: Include a variety of exercises to prevent monotony and stimulate different muscle groups. This also helps prevent overuse injuries.
Structuring Your Workouts:
Frequency: Decide how often you’ll work out per week. Depending on your schedule and recovery capacity, this could range from 3 to 6 days.
Splitting Workouts: Consider dividing your workout routine into specific muscle groups or focusing on different fitness components on different days (e.g., upper body, lower body, cardio).
Progressive overload is a fundamental principle in strength training and muscle development. It involves systematically increasing the stress on your muscles over time to facilitate continuous growth and adaptation.
Methods to apply progressive overload are as follows:
- Weight Progression: Gradually increase the amount of weight you lift. This can be done by adding small increments to resistance training exercises.
- Resistance Bands: Integrate resistance bands to add extra tension, providing a different form of resistance and challenging your muscles in various ways.
- Repetition Increase: Increase the number of repetitions (reps) for a specific exercise. This can contribute to muscular endurance and growth.
- Set Volume: Gradually add more sets to your workout routine. This increases the overall workload, promoting muscle adaptation.
- Volume Tracking: Keep track of your overall training volume, the total weight lifted multiplied by the number of sets and reps. Aim to increase this metric over time progressively.
- Intensity Management: Manage the intensity of your workouts by balancing heavier, low-repetition sets with lighter, high-repetition sets. This variation challenges your muscles in different ways.
Balanced nutrition is a crucial component of any muscle growth plan. Providing your body with the proper nutrients in proportions supports muscle development, aids recovery, and enhances overall performance. Here’s a guide to achieving balanced nutrition for muscle growth:
- Protein: Protein is essential for muscle repair and growth. It provides the necessary building blocks (amino acids) that your body utilizes to rebuild and strengthen muscle tissues. Include lean protein sources such as poultry, fish, lean meats, eggs, dairy products, legumes, and plant-based proteins like tofu and quinoa.
Consuming protein before a workout helps provide amino acids during exercise, aiding muscle preservation. A protein-rich meal or shake after workouts supports muscle recovery and promotes protein synthesis.
- Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates are the body’s primary energy source. Adequate intake ensures you have the energy to perform intense workouts. Choose complex carbohydrates like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables for sustained energy release.
- Fats: Healthy fats play a role in hormone production, including testosterone, essential for muscle growth. Include sources of healthy fats such as avocados, nuts, seeds, olive oil, and fatty fish into your diet.
- Hydration and Recovery: Proper hydration is essential for optimal muscle function. Dehydration can impair performance and recovery. Consume water consistently throughout the day and pay attention to hydration during and after workouts.
- Electrolytes: After intense workouts, consider beverages or foods that replenish electrolytes lost through sweat, helping to prevent muscle cramps and support recovery.
- Whey Protein: A convenient and effective way to supplement protein intake, especially post-workout.
- Casein Protein: A slower-digesting protein ideal for sustained amino acid release, suitable for pre-bed consumption.
Rest and Recovery
Resting is super important when you’re building muscles. It’s not just taking a break; it’s when your muscles fix and strengthen after workouts. Also, easy activities like walking or stretching help your muscles stay healthy. Taking days off from intense workouts is like giving your muscles a vacation to return even more vital.
Remember, it’s a holistic approach – nourishing your body, pushing your limits, and giving it the rest it needs. By applying these principles, you build muscles and cultivate a sustainable and healthy lifestyle, supporting long-term fitness success.

The second release in Under Armour’s attack on the soccer market is the Under Armour Create soccer cleat. At first glance, the Create is very different to any other cleat in the market, with Under Armour definitely stamping their style on the cleat. Technology is something that UA have placed an emphasis on, with comfort and injury control topping the list. ‘Create with Speed’ is the motto used by Under Armour for these cleats and that gives you an idea of where their marketing approach has gone with this cleat. My personal opinion is that the cleats suit another set of players, as I will discuss later.
Size wise, the Create runs long. In fact, they run a lot longer than any other cleat on the market. They are very unlike Under Armour’s other release the Dominate, which have a wide front fit rather than a long. Another different dynamic about the Create is that they are designed with a higher frame, almost like an American Football cleat. They fit a little higher on the ankle than a normal cleat would. They seem to offer more protection without an increase in weight. In fact, the Create weighs in at a nice 9.9oz, giving it a very balanced feel. It is UA’s Exoskeletal FootFrame that adds support to the upper. The Exoskeleton Footframe is noticeable when looking at the cleat, it is the lining that runs across the top of the cleat. They are almost like little ridges, and I feared that these would impact the direction of the ball on contact, but thankfully it doesn’t as it is soft. There are two colorways available: Black/Neon Yellow and White/Red. I tested the black/neon yellow version, the black color frame is blended with the black Footframe lining to create a defined look of black on black. Add to this the neon yellow lining, and the Create is an extremely visible cleat! I got a few comments while wearing them at practice about their look.
As I previously stated, injury prevention has been a key philosophy for UA in designing their current range. The Create has the extremely beneficial modular protection zone (MPZ), that absorbs shock and offers impact protection for the foot. This is something that was interesting to me as I know how prominent foot injuries have become in the game. Think of David Beckham before the 2006 World Cup. One of my favorite things about the Create is the comfort supplied by UA’s inserts. When you wear the cleats, they offer an amazing level of comfort. ArmourForm insole reduces stud pressure and increases stability and comfort, while a layer on top of the sole, known as ArmourBound, adds increased cushioning. Honestly, if there is anything that would make me buy these cleats it is the protection offered to your feet.
In terms of studs, Molded ArmourGuide TPU with triangular shaped studs in the forefoot for optimal traction in all directions. I wore the cleats on both grass and turf with good results. I would not recommend trying to wear these cleats on a hard surface, the studs are not as well suited to harder surfaces and really need a little give on the surface. Also, rather than being round, the studs are created in a triangular shape which is very unusual. These cleats offer better traction on surfaces with longer grass/turf, mainly due to the triangular shape of the studs.
To sum up, if you are interested in something different, and something that will stand out, the Under Armour Create might be the cleat for you. Currently UA are advertising them as a boot that is suitable for playmakers and wingers, but I don’t think this is necessarily true. I would almost recommend these cleats for defenders, as they offer a lot of protection for players that get stuck in to tackles. And I also think they are not the right fit for wingers, who need light cleats with little material. In fact, I feel like these cleats could actually become popular with Rugby players, as they offer a lot of comfort, support and excellent grip. Having the over sized frame is also beneficial. My favorite thing about these cleats is definitely the comfort level they offer, it ranks among the best of any cleats that I have worn! They are available right now in two levels, the UA Create and the UA Create Pro.
