Most of today’s society is plagued with muscular imbalances due to repetitive patterns of movement which place undue stress on the body. That includes sitting or standing for long periods, and repeating the same movements overtime. Muscular imbalance are a result of poor movement of the joints, inappropriate muscles taking over the function of the primary muscles, and decreased nueromuscular control. Static stretching is a great way to correct this.

No matter what your fitness lever or your age, you can benefit from static stretching. Stretching will improve neuromuscular efficiency, improve joint range of motion, and improve the overall function of muscles. This helps to prevent injury and relieve pain.

You can perform static stretching before and after workouts. Before a workout stretching will help prepare your muscles for exercise and prevent injury. After exercise it helps to recover your muscles, increases flexibility which improves joint range of motion, and it also helps to reduce muscle soreness.

If you lead a sedentary lifestyle or you don’t exercise, it is even more important that you perform static stretching and flexibility exercises. Only stretch to a point of slight tension and hold the stretch for at least 30 seconds.

The most common types of flexibility training include static stretching, active stretching, SRM with a foam roll, and dynamic stretching. The best place to start is with static stretches. Static stretching requires you hold a stretch for a period of 30 seconds at the first point of resistance. This allows your muscles to lengthen, improving flexibility. It’s a great way to correct muscle imbalances.

SMR or self myofacial release is also a great form of corrective stretching to address muscular imbalances and can be combined with static stretching. This technique uses a foam roll to place pressure on “knots” or sensitive areas of a muscle. The pressure increases blood flow to the area and straightens bundled muscle fibers, which leads to lengthening of the muscles. This can be done by rolling on a foam roll and holding on a sensitive area until the sensitivity is reduced.

Active and dynamic stretching is another form of stretching which should be formed only as a warm up or before a workout. You can cool down with some static stretching. They require holding stretches for only a short duration and several repetitions. Yoga is a form of active isolated stretching.

Start incorportating static stretching exercises in your daily routine and not only will you improve your flexibility but you’ll feel great, reduce stress, improve you posture, reduce or prevent injury, counteract aging, and improve muscle recovery after workouts.

Prior to waste hours of valuable time doing super, or spend hundreds of hard-earned dollars for creative AB machines, there is one thing that you should do first is to get rid of fat in the abdomen. The crucial first step will be crucial to your success or failure in the abdomen get grease. The first thing you should do is to find the cause of fat. Maybe, I think it sounds ridiculous. Can you believe that the only cause of fat from eating too much and too little traction. While this may be the case that the overwhelming majority of people, thousands of ordinary people who are trying to get rid of fat in the abdomen, which will never succeed, simply because, although they try, the chances are for himself against them and that many cases, you do not even know. If I knew, if you overeat one of those people who eat too much, and you can be honest with themselves admit that you just eat too much bad food too often, the solution to get rid of abdominal fat is relatively simple. Note that I simply said that it is not easy. Weight loss is never easy, but it is relatively simple formula. Add another whole, nutritious foods you should eat. Return of processed food and hold further from the driver through. Stop, or at least a significant reduction in soft drinks and other sugar laden food and beverages. These include alcohol, which treats the body as sugar, ultimately forming, a well-known “beer” belly. A few of your healthy diet, walk 30 minutes, 3 times a week and will include a number of training with resistance bands or weights a kilo will look literally melt off, and not just in the stomach fat, but throughout his body. If you know that you eat properly What to do if you are one of the many who do not see what you eat, exercise often, but despite the best efforts of you think that simply can not get rid of fat stomach? It is very likely that the reason for your overweight because of his own body. There are thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of people walking around with an unknown, undiagnosed hormonal imbalances that are wreaking havoc with their attempts to reduce weight. These imbalances treated you not only lose weight but often have responsibility for the cause, you can win! Your thyroid gland, glands and the reproductive hormones must be in a delicate balance, or exercise, while the drop and your results will be less than you need. If you’re always tired, often chilled, and can not lose weight even with their own efforts, it will probably take you to see your hormones. (I do not know, it’s not just, women, boys have hormones, too) There are simple tests of blood and saliva tests that can determine whether a hormonal imbalance made it impossible to get rid of fat or excess weight in general.

The web without Google

Some arbitrary discussion on a popular online forum set me thinking along a very strange line – what would the web be with Google.com?

This might sound really strange and kind of unthinkable- but are we so dependant on google for our online businesses and daily needs that the internet without google would be unthinkable? Not only google, but any other search engine for that matter.Just imagine -

When there is tool to help you find out some thing important very quickly…Nothing to get visitors to your website, nothing at all to …well, depend on.

That’s the word which made me think – we really really depend on Google and other popular search engines for our online businesses and if there was no google, no SERPs to battle for, no PageRank to guage importance, no other aims to fight for, how would the internet finally emerge? How would it develop if it would develop? Would we suddenly go back to the stone age of the internet and all related services and rely on the good ‘ol radio, newspapers and billboards for advertisements of affiliate products selling herbal cures for suspicious medical diseases?

heck, my mind cannot even accurately think of the possiblities that would die out and the new possibilities that could emerge in case google shut off foreover.

Jack Nicholson – what a son-of-a-bitch!!!

Man, i hate to admit it but it’s true – Jack Nicholson is one helluva son-of-a-bitch. And I envy him like anything. Here’s why:

1. he’s done the most neurotic, eccentric, crazy and original roles in
2. Some of the best films ive ever seen..
3. hes slept with 2000 women – allegedly. But looking at him, this is not hard to believe.
4. that would be like a new girl every day for 2000 days or (searching for calculator, me) like a new girls every day for five years..who wouldnt envy him
5. because he has a sense of humour i had – only in my mind – and he managed to do it onscreen.
6. his glint of mischievousness ..

wait!

i dont even know where im going with this.

the honest, very honest fact is that many a times when a celebrity or any known personality comes in the spot light and i read about them – i get these realisations that when i say to myself- “He’s is so much like me. ” or ” WOW! Isnt that similarity creepy?” and so on..

I think ive made a post about this guy i met on facebook with whom i shared so many uncanny characteristics..i guess jack nicolson is going on that list of mine..

some other famous hot shots i feel have something which describes me, have something which i want with my life are-

1. howard roark – a fictional character from Ayn Rand’s Fountainhead
2. Aamir Khan – Bollywood superstar etc etc. For our perfection, impracticality and sensibility. and principles.
3. jack nicolson – for the sense of humour and what he has achieved.
4. farhan akhtar – obsurely. not sure why but i guess if i meet him, we will have lots to talk of.

more will sure be added to this list..

There, this is what i love about blogging. No matter how you are feeling, or what – let alone the fact that sometimes this feels like talking to a wall – you get to make your chest lighter, even if it is by a hair.

but i sure damn want that someone reads all these stupid, words and give

Inspiration is runny dry..

Boy, i sure could use some inspiration around here. I had initially thought that I would never run out of ideas to share on this blog but for some reason, my mind refuses to think..

I really hope some incident happens and I get an iota of inspiration which I could use..

Even this post is so small – man! Some writer’s block!

Movie Review – Kidnap

Movie review – Kidnap

Director – Sanjay Gandhvi

Starring – Imran Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Minnisha Lamba

Just a little more sense in the movie and Kidnap could have made a little bigger mark at the box office. Imran Khan, alas, tries sincerely to come out of his chocolate boy image into a more versatile actor. Bad luck Imran, you just failed. However, he has shown with his sincere performance that he is here to stay. Imran Khan plays the role of a convincing villain, an abductor to be precise. The whole success of Kidnap rests on Imran’s shoulders and whether the audience manages to buy him in a negative role.

Kidnap is not as thrilling or action packed as it could have been. In fact, some scenes just beg you to say to yourself – ” why did I bring my mind to see this movie?” There are several factors responsible for this. The plot itself is a bit too complicated with faint connections from Sanjay Dutt’s Zinda. A person is looking for revenge due to some grudges in the past and so kidnaps his enemy’s daughter, following which is a series of supposedly thrilling action scenes. Minnisha in her skimpy outfits, cleavage showing tops and hot pants seems a little misplaced.

The songs are fine with a few catchy tunes now and then. However, no chart breaking stuff. In fact, the movie is such a disappointing bore that I don’t have much views about it. Only if Sanjay Gadhvi could have put some sense and some of Dhoom’s action in this one, we could have been sure of a box office hit.

This could have been expected because Gadhvi must have been reeling under the pressure of his past successes, Dhoom and Dhoom 2 and consequently, the audience expected more than he could deliver.

Bob Dylan – Smooth easy listening folk

Listening to bob dylan at the moment and must say that he was one easy singer. The tracks are so easy listening kinds, the kind which will easily put you into a lazy, lethargic, warm summer feeling – the kind of mood when you dont feel like doing anything. Just laze around the whole day, walking here and there, doing this and that, nothing important, nothing serious.

All thats missing is a hammock…

The other day I was browsing through a facebook group on led zeppelin and there was this person asking what people listened to apart from led zeppelin. most of them said Pink floyd and there were other rock bands and artists of yesteryears. I now feel that there is some sort of musical connection in people who are fond of a particular kind of music. There is never a lack of converation – we always have something to talk about, something to discuss..

Face value and Sarah Palin, Nupur Sharma and DU politics

The whole Sarah Palin thingy has definitely given me some food for thought, which by the way is totally non political. John McCain is one clever dog. He, according to me chose this lady to be his running mate because of her good looks and charming personality. Im sure of one thing – it was never her political ideas or experience (which by the way is near to nil) that made him choose her, it was her background and face value.

While the importance of face value was internationally accepted in this case, it is mostly neglected in our daily lives. Fortunately or unfortunately, this is one thing which is catching up, even in india.

I study in the god-forsaken Delhi University doing a god forsaken course called maths honours. Though it is supposed to be an undergraduate course in mathematics by the end of which i am supposed to end up with an honours degree, i have not yet grasped the total point of studying math, the it is being taught to us. In one word – school time!! Anyway, i seem to have drifted again…

Well, the DU elections took place a while ago and guess who won the presidential vote? None other than a gorgeous beauty with no brains inside her lovely head. Nupur Sharma – another cleverly chosen candidate. And she won for one sole reason – it was looks and purely looks.

<paragraph moderated – sincere apologies! Will never be so stupid and ignorant, ever!>

This was a local example of the importance of face value. The Sarah Palin one a foreign example. But in history, do we have a global example of a moron being projected to great heights solely owning to his or her physical beauty? I doubt.  But there is a thought in the back of my huge mind that there is.

I never realised that i actually had some views about the mind game which is commonly called politics. While the politics in India and indian universities is immature and clever, young and lethal, the politics in Western countries is more tasteful and sophisticated, intellectually stimulating and interesting to follow. Broadly, the same principles and techniques are used everywhere, but it is the mannerism in which it is executed. Using dirty, filmy goondas is India, reminiscent of the hardcore UP politics and using tongues as whiplashes in the west. My only regret (i hope it is not soon to make a judgement, who knows where the hell i eventually land up) will be that i never whetted my hungry mind with politics and politicians…

Thank you – Led Zeppelin

What is it with robert plant and his amazing lyrical proficiency? Will this classic rock band ever stop surprising me with their songs and poetry, which have long been buried under the cloaks of time and space…

Last night, I heard another track closely to get exacty what Plant was rambling about. The song was called Thank You. It actually touched my wooden heart. There are few songs which have managed that and Thank You is definitely one of them.

Thank You is an example which clearly demonstrates the skill and passion which was there in Led Zeppelin. And they say that only stairway to heaven is a song worthy of listening.

 Here’s a couple of lines of the song:

“if the sun refused to shine,
I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea,
There will still be you and me.”

In fact these are the opening lines of the song. This was Robert Plant and I am quite sure that he often went through turbulent waters when it came to relationships and love. No wonder most of their songs are classic love ballads.

It has perhaps become one of my wishes before i die, to sing atleast a couple of Led Zeppelin’s songs to the person I love..

I’m Cynical,Antisocial,Obsessive,and Eccentric.And I overanalyze everything

This a word by word copy of a person’s views about himself. I read it on Facebook and Was shell Shocked!!! This guy was describing himself and while reading it I was thinking as if I was being described…This is a really strange world and what kills me most is that there’s nothing to explain all these bizarre, metaphysical connections..

Anyway here’s the description:

“I’m cynical because of how stupid the world can get including myself. So, it makes me very coarse on the outlook of Life, despite my attempts for trying to make it out to be very nice and pleasing. Antisocial, because of what I just said and that I’ve never really been sociable to begin with. Even when I was little I simply watched people just to see what they did and how they acted. That doesn’t mean I’ve never had friends because I do find people nice to talk to from time to time. I’m obsessive in finding truth and certainty, mostly. It’s difficult for me to simply accept something as it is without substantial evidence to back it. I’m also obsessive about cleanliness and order on some things…even though chaos tends to intrigue me, oddly enough. I’m eccentric since I get manic over certain music or a movie or when I hear fire engine sirens or the city siren if there’s a tornado coming (the sound reminds me of an air raid in WWII). I’m always staring out in space thinking of multiple things at the same time (No, it’s not very helpful while trying to do homework or pay attention to something; class, conversations, etc.). I can only learn in 3D (why I like sciences) or by sound (one reason I love being a musician). I can’t stand crowds. They make me nervous even though there’s nothing to be nervous about. I “talk with my hands” and never can look a person in the eye while talking to them since I’m too busy trying to visualize what I’m talking about in my mind before it comes out of my mouth.There’s more stuff too, but I’m not going to sit here all day typing things out. And lastly, I overanalyze everything. I leave “no stone unturned” when analyzing something. I have to know what it’s all about. That tends to leave me with sleepless nights, though. Or, I’ll be trying to do homework and can’t since my mind simply won’t leave something alone for later.”

A message for eric (if you come across this – the net is not as vast anymore, courtesy- google)

I m really sorry Eric for stealingthis, but i could have described myself any better than this although I think I could have but I m a bit lazy to do so..These self reflections are mostly sparked off by stray incidents and people’s views about oneself.
