Golf fitness

I’ve always lived and loved fitness (running in particular), I completed a half marathon in may, and while training I got shin splints, which I am still trying to get over. I am gradually increasing my milage, and mainly running on grass (with each time I go, which I have limited to once every 3 days) a few more seconds on the pavement. I have started walking, and usually walk about 5 miles each day. However, I have noticed pain in my achilles tendon, and I also have a painful hamstring. I desparately want to increase my fitness but it seems I am plagued with injuries.. Has anyone got any advice on how slowly to take it? I would love to be able to run on the pavement for miles at a time several times a week..
oh, and I am joining the gym in late september as soon as I get back to uni.

My soccer games go for about 70min, and I usually tire around 50min. I’m a central midfielder, so I do lots of running. In the last 20mins this is where the games is won and lost, so how could I improve my fitness level? I only have about 30min a day spare that I can train. I’m 15 by the way.

Is it really possible to achieve a level of fitness that would allow one to operate for long periods of time without losing his strength on an operation?

I am an athlete and I play pro basketball at my local club. I also am an occasional jogger and love to play other sports as well. But occasionally I go out on weekends and consume alot of alcohol. Im talking about beer, rum, tequila, vodka, and many other kinds! I dont get to the state of getting drunk, because I usually stop when I feel like Im getting there. I know that alcohol cant be good in any form, but I just would like to know what kind of damage are we talking about here? I have an almost perfect fitness level according to recent tests, but I wasnt consuming much alcohol then as well.
Now Im planning to take a vacation and I KNOW that ill be drinking alot, therfore I would like to know what are the given consequences if any with regards to my fitness level.
Thanks for the input.

I’m just begining to get in shape, and I’ve got a long way to go. How in shape do you have to be to be able to keep up in a beginner’s Tai Kwan Do class? What fitness “landmarks” should I be able to reach to be successful?

The color, surface finish, size and shape of the target will affect the reflectivity and the range. The brighter the color, the longer the range. Red is highly reflective, for example, and allows longer ranges than the black color, which is the (more…)
