I eat low carb, and I inline speed skate for fitness...?
I know that most people eating low-carb focus on strength training. Does anyone have tips on eating low-carb while exercising high-intensity, high endurance? Has anyone read "Paleo diet for athletes"? I take Potassium supps, and a multivitamin, and will be limiting my carbs to 60 per day.
I eat low carb, and I inline speed skate for fitness...what should I eat?
I know you eat low carbs (so do I), but there are a few natural carbs that don't spike your blood/sugar level and store as fat. They are absorbed slowly, and having a very good glycemic index diabetic people also eat them. They are:
Long Grain Brown Rice
Oatmeal
Sweet Potatoes and Yams
Eat a serving of one them before your workout (I also take a 250mg caffiene pill and a protein shake).
Reply:You're welcome. Report It
Reply:You are doing just fine. Low carb diets are actually better for endurance training than High carb diets do.
One thing you can do to help your cholesterol is taking in more oily fish like Salmon or Mackerel. Fish Oil capsules can help too if you don't like "fishy" fish.
Reply:You need high carbs for skating.
A low carb diet for skating is like a race car driving on 87 octane fuel and water. Sooner or later you will hit the wall.
Reply:Man, thats like the atkins diet! Not healthy! You need carbs for energy!
More importantly its about eating the right kind of carbs than limiting them.
Like carbs in yogurt and cottage cheese, fruits ans veggies are great whereas, processed foods are the killer!
good luck!
Reply:The Paleo diet is a fancy name for back-to-nature. Trans fats have been banned in NYC. But they are in man made foods not foods made by nature or God. Site below explains how good carbs are the best thing for you. Bad carbs are horrible. But the bad ones are made by man. Your brain needs lots of carbs.
Good carbs like celery and carrots will never make you fat. Bad carbs like cake will, but you don't need to know the whole science of glycemic index and load. See site below. You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin and healthy. Not a diet, but diet lifestyle. Find out about fastest way to lose weight, gradual ways to lose weight, most effective exercise, good and bad carbs and anti-water.
Lose bodyfat and retained water which also makes you a lot fatter (bloated). Links page has gov. BMI calculater to find out just how much overweight you are (teens plug in your age to compare to others your age). Get latest info like American Heart Association does not want you to eat more than 6 ounces daily of meat, fish or poultry. Most important-- make sure to read the last "fat loss tip", first before anything else, to see the number one food that causes Americans to be fat.

Do you think Inline Speek Skating should become an Olympic Sport?
Meet inline speed skating, a sport that's booming in many parts of the world but that's still in its infancy here. In essence, it's short track speed skating on wheels. The black and red clad skaters are members of CRISC, the Calgary Rollercade Inline Speed Club.
"The U.S., Columbia and Italy are clearly the three world powers now. But if you want to train seriously, there's certainly lots of possibilities down the road. Rollersports are one of the five new sports they are considering for inclusion in the 2012 Olympics."

Do you think Inline Speek Skating should become an Olympic Sport?
no i think they have too many boring events already
Reply:Based on athleticism then yes.
Its just finding the numbers, is it a sport internationally recognised on five continents and enjoyed and participated athletes in over 100 countries. Then the International Olympic Committee have to vote and change the laws alowing them to officially give inline skating the chance to make it on the International Olympic stage.
Reply:sure, why not?

I am training for a Rollerblade Marathon. I have some quick questions on skates?
1. Are swiss bearings the best bearings you can find?
2. What are the pros and cons of racing style inline skates.
3. How much of a disadvantage would I be at if I were to purchase regular workout blades, and after time, replace them with new wheels and the new swiss bearings. They come with SG9 bearings and 90 mm wheels to start. Crossfire 90II by Rollerblade.
I am training for a Rollerblade Marathon. I have some quick questions on skates?
1) no
Between the better bearings, there is actually very little difference to your speed. Your wheels will make a much larger difference. Take a look at the TwinCam (http://www.ilq9.com/) and Zero Drag(http://www.rollerbob.com/cat-8.html) bearings.
I use the Zero Drag racing wheels but I have 5x84mm frames and they don't make that wheel in 90.
RollerBob (www.rollerbob.com) has just gotten some AmWing wheels that the fast people have been raving about. They aren't on his web site yet so you would have to email him to get the details. They come in 90 to 110mm
2) If you are very fast, the low unpadded racing boot allows you to put more power into the stride.
If your ankles are not up to it or they don't fit you really well, they can kill your feet and time.
I know of one person who fought with them for many years and finally mounted his racing frames on a rec boot. He cut his time at the next Northshore Marathon by over an hour.
Bont (www.bont.com) introduced their semi race skate this year for those who want something better than the typical fitness skate but aren't ready for a race skate.
3) Your fitness and skill will each swamp your choice of skates.
Many (especially the more serious ones) people will keep a better set of wheels and bearings for race use and use their older ones for training.
You didn't say what level you are at. It makes a diffence if you are going for an hour twenty or will be happy with an hour fifty.
I am typically in the 1:45 area.

Are there any inline skaters in Lakewood, Ohio anymore? An "Ol'Skool" skater dusting the dust off skates
I use to skate aggressive almost 10 years ago and I decide to pick it back up. I'm trying to make a come back. Rails, ledges, stairs, and gaps were nothing. Where are all the inliners at in my city?

How did you used to keep your roller skates attached to your shoes?
Before inline skates!
How did you used to keep your roller skates attached to your shoes?
I can remember roller skates that you slid to fit your shoe.. and you used a key. the top still tied some.
Reply:LOL! I remember when the skates WERE shoes or boots with wooden wheels attached!
Reply:uh, in 1961 there were screw like thingy's that you clamped to your shoes.? LOL, I hadn't thought about that in awhile! I hated them because they always fit so funky.
Reply:We used to wear our leather 'school shoes' with our skates, which upset Mom NO END!!!

How long does it take to learn to inline skate?
Just bought the family skates/pads/helmets...me the wife and our 9 yo boy...wonder what to expect.
How long does it take to learn to inline skate?
A lot depends on the person. I have seen people pick it up immediately (like in strap them on and start moving comfortably) with no help and I have seen people who needed a couple hours of help just to move awkwardly.
If you have ever skated on ice or quad (aka old style) skates, you have a significant advantage.
Downhill skiing seems to be a slight hinderance. It seems that they put more weight on their toes, which is wrong for inlines.
I would suggest looking at Liz Miller's Get Rolling web site (www.getrolling.com/). There are some good hints there.
If you have a local person who KNOWS (not most skaters) how to describe the peoper techniques, it can take off a lot of time. You can search the web for local clubs. Most have people who are very willing to teach beginners.
You started right, with helmets and pads.
The basic stance is the "ready" position.
Feet shoulder width apart
Knees and hips slightly bent.
(Nose, knees, and toes in a vertical line.)
Arms slightly forward with hands up between the shoulder and waist and palms (covered by wrist guards) forward.
This position gives you the best ability to shift your weight to balance yourself.
Your balance should always be slightly forward. If you try to stand straight up, you are likely to fall backwards and smack the back of your head.
That does not mean to push on the toes.
For standing or gliding you want the weight balanced over the skate.
When you push, you want the main push to be through the heel.
You can start to learn by standing and walking on carpet or grass. This lets you get a feel for the balance.
The basic beginners stride is to point the toes slightly out and push to the side, then glide a little.
There are more people at the usenet group rec.sports.skating.inline that can help. If you don't know how to read usenet groups, you can do it via Google Groups.
If you let us know where you live, I may be able to help you find a local club that can help you.
If you can't find people locally to help, Liz Miller's book is good. I also found an out of production video tape that is very good at http://www.surfvideo.com/product_info.ph... . I wish that they would reissue it as a DVD.
Reply:Depends on what you call inline skating. Inline skating has been assigned to the more Extreme Skating sort of activities, and if you are talking about that, it took me about 2 years to become decent. If you are talking about skating with rollerblades, the skates with the inline 4 wheels, it can take anywhere from a day to a year depending on how long you try for and how well you can balance naturally.
Reply:Woa, woa, woa. Back it up a minute!
"Me, the wife and our 9 yo boy"? And here I was thinking you were a single man! Well my day is ruined. I'm so hurt. I feel as if you have led me on for so long...lol. justa kiddin.
it took me about two weeks but I went to practice every other day or so. Plus I'm just really talented.
