Someone has said that the greatest cause of ulcers is mountain-climbing over mole-hills! Is that the way you get your exercise? Many folks allow themselves to be thrown off course by minor or imaginary threats. Often they interpret these as life-or-death, or do-or-die situations. They put so much energy into their worries that there is none available for progress. Some even believe that worrying demonstrates caring. This is misguided, too.The use you make of your energy is your choice. Simply use it consciously and constructively. Worry is neither.Bertrand Russell, philosopher and mathematician, tells of a technique he used on himself to calm down his worries and excessive negative excitement...

Climbing is rarely about actual strength. Of course strength helps but the better and more experienced you get you'll find that balance and technique are FAR more important. Climbing well does not always mean getting to the top. Climbing is about being in control, moving decisively and fluidly up the rock and not thrashing and scrambling. Work on balance and overall strength and not on building large muscle groups. Build your heart rate and work on finger strength. There are three types of climbing. Trad (traditional) climbing is identified as routes where you must place you own safety gear. You are free climbing and using combinations of stoppers, cams, hexes and even pitons as protection.

A classical guitar is slightly different in shape from an ordinary guitar (i.e. rhythm guitar, bass guitar, Hawaiian guitar, etc.) The fret board, also known as the neck of the guitar, is slightly broader than that of other guitars. As a result the strings are more distanced from each other. The guitarist must stretch his fingers a bit more than when he is playing an acoustic or an electric guitar. When it comes to the string, the difference is that a classical guitar uses nylon strings instead of metal ones, making for a mellower sound.Classical guitars are based on the classical mode of music and follow classically oriented instructions. But the modern day guitar tablatures follow a slightly...

A year ago, I wrote a passionate article on the merits of charging $15 when you sell your CDs. Some of my reasonings included: It's tough for indie musicians and you have a good music, so don't short-change yourself; you can always discount the CD for special reasons (2-for-1 special); and, the "high" sales prices also includes your various expenses. I made a few addendums, but that's the gist of it.But now, if you head over to and check out the Brobdingnagian Bards page at MP3.com, you'll notice something kinda hypocritical...none of our CDs are priced at $15! What gives??Well first let me say, yes, I do still believe in a $15.00 sales price for many artists. Certainly, it works best for folk...

Well I didnt get my head knocked on the rocks because my belayer got a hold of me and because all of my gear worked the way it was supposed to, this includes one of the most...

The first questions people will ask when you talk about stair climbing is: can someone really get in shape by simply using stairs? The answer to that question is absolutely! If you have ever walked up more than 10 flights of stairs you can understand what I mean. In fact my discovery of stair climbing came when I had to walk up 19 flights of stairs to visit a friend of mine.

Ever since then I have used stair climbing for myself, my high school students, college athletes, elite professional athletes, and most of my...
