Since this thread was started by a misplaced gymnast (I guess thats evident from the intial whining in his first post).....I suggest all REAL swimmers ignore it. I guess you're too late Paul b/c this real swimmer has already joined in....It was an invitation to cast puffballs at the British dude...So how was I suppose to resist that now?...LOL!

They have over 40's here and I think we have some 60 ish guys playing. Of course the running may be less...but some of these guys are so good they make the ball do the work anyhow. Although I;'ve retired from competitive play for my back's sake.

As for hanging upside down, I'll leave that to bats and people who swim bizarre strokes. -- mel Ah Mel I see we're land and hydra bretheren...I just realise bizzrre stroke mu st be referring to Fly or Front Crawl. Icky! Sounds like something found in a damp basement.... I do hyperextension press ups...trouble is MrsStud is cracking the whip over me to tile the floor...and tiling is just a guarantee of disc aggravation...

Don't know about inversion tables but I used to have lower back pain so bad that I couldn't crawl out of the pool after a workout or drive a standard shift car (couldn't move my foot from the accelerator to the brake fast enough to be safe in traffic). Flip turns were impossible. The origin was probably poor kicking technique in soccer. Now, I have NO back pain at all, attributable mostly, I believe, to owning a back hyperextension station in my home gym. I routinely do back hypers, situps and shoulder rotation rehab exercises (damage also due to soccer injuries). Even though these are BORING (as some have noted before) they are just as necessary as my standard training. Since my training is my life (sorry Mr Smith the Younger), they don't really bore me. It took me about 3 years of steady training to eliminate the lower back pain issues. As for hanging upside down, I'll leave that to bats and people who swim bizarre strokes. -- mel
