Improve Athletic Performance: Faster and More Complete Recuperation
June 9, 2010 – 2:07 pm | No Comment

Fast and complete recuperation are two of the most important elements of improving your athletic performance – especially if you run a hard training schedule. Faster recuperation means you don’t fall behind: you can fit more training sessions in, and you’re not out of commission for a week or two after a big event. More complete recuperation means your training sessions will be more productive: you’re body is stronger and more fully healed, ready to push harder.

Shaun McDaniels Pushes For World Record

backs-of-hands-pushups-weightsShaun McDaniel is on his way to becoming an international champion. Last week, the twenty four year old New Yorker famous for training in a thrift-store basement (link to original article) unofficially broke the world record that his longtime hero, Paddy Doyle, established in 2008. With a forty-pound weight strapped to his back, Shaun managed to pump out 719 back-handed pushups in an hour, topping Doyle’s previous record of 663. “I didn’t know I could do it,” said Shaun, “I thought it would just be a practice session.”

To make the record official, Shaun will repeat his performance next month while being filmed from both front and side angles. To best his own recent performance, he’s now training with seventy-five pounds stuffed into his book bag, so that “a forty pound weight will feel like nothing in comparison.”
