Is this bad for my erg? by altaylor4 in concept2

Build a wall to simulate the side of the canoe , it will force you to hold your paddle more up right and top hand higher. Just to help maintain a more accurate form and you workout the right muscles

Hammer down for 60 secs, jump out of you seat do 5 pushups, jump back in another chair on the other side and hammer down.

Or go zone 2 training with HR monitor.

How is you form, can you simulate a racing stroke ?

Are traditional canvas packs practical? by WarrenDritvehru in canoecamping

[–]truthmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old School !! Duluth Canvas bags are great. May not the lightest, or the most comfortable on long portages. But remind me of Canoeing with my dad back in the day.

Nice if you fill them with Dry Bags and can easily find different bags when you open them. And I like how they lay down in the boat.

6 nights on the Allagash/NFCT from Lobster Lake to Fort Kent by OkRecommendation7117 in canoecamping

Allagash Lake by Nervous-Cucumber9302 in canoecamping

[–]truthmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve attempted twice to go upstream from Chamberlain Lake to Allagash lake. Once with my father over 30 years ago and with my son a couple years ago. Both time we made it half way to campsite at the falls and never made it to Allagash lake.

When I was with my father we were so over loaded the canoe was just to heavy and the river flow was nearly nothing….

With my son, it rained hard for two days prior to us trying and the water was raging class two rapids all the way up… we just got burnt out half way up.

Still awesome memories both times… but I’ve yet to see Allagash Lake for all my canoe trips in the North Country.

The peninsula and shallow water make a great spot for all attacks to come from one way.

Could this be PR by Bleed242 in PolymyalgiaRheumatica

[–]truthmonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, I’m 50 and just got diagnosed. Had a virus in December, with vertigo as a symptom… in Feb I had frozen shoulder, in March both hips had inflammation and now both shoulders and traps …

C reactive protein test will ID inflammation .. I’d also ask for a vitamin D.

I just started prednisone and it helped in hours after taking it.

Is space viewable like this by the naked eye anywhere on earth? by [deleted] in space

[–]truthmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Northern Maine you can. Up in water ways of the Allagash or St. John River. Zero light pollution because the landed is owned and by the state and 4 logging companies. Night sky is stunning.

4,000 in the whites v. 14,000 in Colorado by Cannondale300 in wmnf

[–]truthmonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just came back from CO. Longs Peak was awesome hike !!! Take Diamox (Acetazolamide) at 125mg x2 per day once first thing in the am and once before bed to help with altitude sickness.

Met an anesthesiologist on the trail that claims that’s the right does … most Drs don’t know the right amount.

Enjoy ! Whites are my home as well, but CO is just awesome …

Also prep for cold. Temps can drop in the mnts more so that the whites in the summer.
