Gorgo, I think that training schedule is probably about right for the elite. Of course the not quite elite will scale it back !!
4.30 in SE Qld is kind of like 5:30 for the rest of us, as it should be on daylight savings!
Plus some people function well on 5-6hrs sleep, plus we don't know what time is her bedtime!

I was actually wondering if OG SUP was the one planning on getting into a bit of racing! As opposed to asking on behalf of Kristi!

Angie, can you suggest a slightly scaled back training schedule. The pictorial diet was great! No processed food there (other than some very lightly processed tuna, crackers and muesli bar). Thanks.

Hey Simmondo,

I havent quite found the right battleship yet but I am still using the dogman training diet in hope, pies beers all the stuff he's recommended so I hope someone is gonna build an 14 x 65 x 11.5 (3000 l) race style board with 2 x 250hp V 6 Yamahas on it. We have 3 boat ramps so launching it shouldnt be an issue.

PS if Kialoa are listening on an 11 inch thick board your paddle shafts are too short

The only competition I am inteested in is wooping your ass in the river on a pylon run one day soon ya big grom.

PPS Get ya Grom slack ass home we have training to do, a flow bench to build, that wind tunnel is still faulty ( the jet turbine has a little too much thrust) and a 40 board capacity board trailer to build to cover all of lacey's recommend boards for different conditions !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sheesh man you have noooooooooooooooooo commitment!

i decided to go hardcore 12'6. getting a secret agent. i have a super duper stable 14' er with rocker and big double concave which straightens the rocker. it's reasonably fast, surf waves and i can stand on the back corner of the board and it wont flip. it's the yellow with black speckled board in piros kirra stock race vid.www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Stand-Up-Paddle/SUP/Battle-of-the-Paddle-featuring-Von-Piros-Girls/. 18 secs in. had some repairs. would really suit a bigger guy looking for something other than a fanatic.$700
cheers

My best advice .... especially for a teenage girl will be to see a sports nutritionist to get a proper diet sorted for her height/weight/ training needs.. and also get her to take iron supplements and possibly magnesium..shouuld fatigue start to kick in. Endurance training is taxing on your body and takes a while to start building.

Golden rule - be sure to eat low GI complex carbs and protein. You need slow release energy so you don't spike - whilst protein for muscle building/ repair!

One word for all of these things...... Spirulina. Natures richest source of protein, iron, magnesium and almost every other vitamin and element. A true Superfood! Better than protein shakes and multivitamins by a long shot.

I swear by this stuff, my wife even knows when I have run out just by my mood and appearance. She comes home with a fresh bottle and says 'I could tell you run out you seem a bit flat'.

If you don't know about this stuff already do some reading, speak to a Naturopath. They use it to treat the sick, the Cuban and Chinese olympic teams use it and it's use as a food dates back centuries. It's natural, cheap and is amazing! You can even buy it from Coles these days. Been taking it since I was 18 and probably will for the rest of my life.

An interesting start to your research if you are interested is at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirulina(dietary_supplement)

this topic almost got away, its been the only interesting thing on here for a while so we should keep it going.

i'd like to give some good input but my 8-10km a day is probably cancelled out with a six pack and a 1/2 bottle of wine a nite , but i work in retail and customers are to demanding to stay sober
