RAINBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

sex

When paddles become playthings meant to be broken.
When biceps can just grow no bigger.
When your shirt hugs you so tightly.
When your body's filled with neverending rigour.

Kudos my friends, it's time to build some hurt-making bombs(metaphor for biceps).

Motivation

Think about it guys

"Motivation is a fire from within. If someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly. "
~ Stephen R. Covey

Time to burn that passion of yours yourselves.

Hey everyone,

Kayaking Videos

Hey guys, below are some of the links that zhen xiao personally recommended for the K rowers to take a look at, please do read the respective captions to get a clearer idea of what is happening in the video.



For this one (Adam Van Koeverden) it's quite complicated but it basically talks about how the boat should be balanced during rowing. Listen to the commentator. What he is saying is that the boat only tilts when the paddle exits the water.



This next dude tim brabants has quite an unorthodoxed style but hes still a world champion nonethless. If you watch carefully basically his punching hand is well above his head. Try not to follow that but instead focus on his twisting motion.



This video offers a very good close up view on the actual rotation. But what to really look out for is that he is actually pulling away from the boat and not pulling so close to the boat i.e. its like he is creating a triangular shape converging at the tip of the boat. This is due to him actually keeping his pulling arm straight and using the body twisting motion as the main source of power.



This one is a good view of Van Koeverden in slow motion.



Whereas this is like the side view profile.



This one is multiple views, as you can see Van Koeverden also does the triangluar shape pulling thingy i.e. not pulling right at the side of his boat.



Now a tim brabants video but its more like an interview with some footage as well.

Do go and youtube some videos especially for the C rowers cause i couldnt get access to a C rowing senior who has like the good video links. Right now its not exactly convenient to ask jairus also so yah go and search for C1 500m, 1000m etc.

Same for K rowers go search for K1 500m, 1000m flat water kayaking, youtube is a sea of knowledge waiting to be explored and dissected.

Dont just watch, think, learn and practise!

If i have more resources i will post, so should the rest of you! Let's all help to make each other better.

Loves,
Jin Fu

Where do girls like these come from? O.O

 NATIONALS

GOOD LUCK SENIORS :D

What we've all been waiting for.

Don't we all love this jersey.

Nationals!

Nationals is in 2 days! Best of luck to seniors and Alvan (and Sandra and Athelia)! But this post is not about the Nats, since we're not participating, but after the Nats. The 2011 Nationals will be around July, if I'm not wrong, and that means more than 1 year of HARDCORE training, no slacking off.
With Nats this week, there won't be training in school and our 7 sets. But I just want to remind you guys to continue with some self-training in your spare time to keep up the fitness.

A wise man once said:

If you train hard, you won't be hard, but instead be hard to beat.

Daniel

Fails.

Hehehe.

Seeing as how this blog has been left stagnating for the past few days, i will write something here.

And guess what, the only things i write are all quotes.

Today's quote: It is not the size of the dawg in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dawg.

As my homies in the west bronx be saying, the above is quite deep for understanding.

Think about it guys, think about it.

Nick Siew.

BLAH

AHAHAHAHAHA JIGGLYBUFF :DD

Nothing is impossible if we realise that:

There is no spoon.

Yay let's jump on the nick siew quotes bandwagon.

Hey guys,

Got this from a show.
Just wanted to say.

There comes a time, when people have finished everything that is possible, but cant do everything that is impossible. It is then that they venture into a region where the possible and the impossible meet, to become, the posimpible. Yes, that's right, the posimpible.

If there is one thought that i could leave with you guys today, it is that nothing, and everything, is, posimpible.

Think about this guys, think about it.

Nick Siew.

Videos

Hey guys,

I think especially for the guys, it's quite frustrating that right now we aint getting much water time and all. In the mean time as we tahan that, try watching some videos of world class kayaking competitors on youtube. Could help motivate you abit or you can even look at their strokes and pick up a few things here and there.

Just go youtube search flat water kayaking and im sure you'll get plenty results. Try to get those with commentators in english cause sometimes they do talk about techniques etc.

A link i found to be quite exciting to watch:

If you guys find any feel free to share it with everyone else!

CANOEING OUTING THE FIRST

Hey JigglyBuffs,


Ever since all of us joined canoeing in early Feb, we have always been training hard, pushing our limits beyond what we thought we were capable of. Moreover, NJCC had just recently concluded, and most of us had been there to support the seniors through thick and thin, seen that victory comes by only if you put your heart and soul into it. This is what we call sheer HARD WORK. Even though our holiday schedules have been filled up with trainings and homework, we must also not forget to PLAY HARD. Yap, although we don't have canoeing camp, we can organize outing by ourself easily.

That is right, LETS HAVE OUR VERY FIRST CANOEING OUTING, for our batch to bond, as well as to strengthen the team spirit! Im asking all of you 'buffhearts' out there, to reside one day free, to push aside other commitments (class outing, mugging), and come for this day of bonding! this outing will be decided by all of you, so do voice out any ideas/ activities, the one stated below is tentative, suggested by me and a few others

Date: 19th of March, Friday OR 1st of April, Thursday
Duration: 11.30am - 6.30pm
Activity: Lunch cum Dinner at Soul Garden
Venue: Soul Garden at Takashimaya
What to Bring: money, fun, and no anti social devices (books, ipods)

Since work will start to pile up, and we wont be able to have so much free time anymore later this year due to CT and Promo, it will be better if we have an outing within the first semester. Do decide fast, especially on the date! All please give comment, email or sms me, even if you are all for this outing and this eat-all-you-want activity.

See ya all during training!
