Can you afford to remove the freedom to choose...

A message from a therapist, Janet .

Hi guys, I don't like spam but this message is important. Basically, a company called Codex Alimentarius are trying to make a 'nanny state' out of us and put all nutritional suppliments, vitamins, etc on 'prescription only', thus taking our ability to decide for ourselves over our own health, completely out of our own hands. Please check out the following website: http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/Vitamins/ . More info from the petition creator: The principle of self medication with herbal/vitamin/mineral food supplements would be restricted to 'prescription only' status, if the Codex Alimentarius is applied in this country. Since the NHS priorities are ill health diagnosis and treatment, the good health preservation that supplements provide will be inaccessible to the majority of our population and the cost to the NHS will increase, and the health of the population will decline. Best regards, Janet PS: For more info, you can also check the link below: http://www.complementary.assoc.org.uk/Forums/?b=5348

MTB Sports Massage Event Work, Hinchingbrooke Park,23 August 2009

Sports Massage, pre/post event work, provided by Active Edge Solutions, Sue Burnett seen in action providing recovery rub to Tour Series Rider...

St Ives CC host the next stage of the Eastern Region Mountain Bike League . To help with race preparations and recovery, the St Ives based club have teamed with the sports massage support team of Phil Young and Sue Burnett, Active Edge Solutions to ensure the riders have the best ride possible. In preparation for the Peterborough Stage of the Tour series, June 2009, cyclingbargains race team manager Rod Freeman is a great supporter of Active Edge Solutions and Sports Massage. He advocates that the best riding mix for performance riders is to have a " balanced training program, good nutrition and sports massage".

Both Sue and Phil will be on hand during the event to provide injury prevention advice, pre and post event sports massage to enhance the riders warm up and race recovery easing away the aches, pains and strains of a days hard riding. This will ensure the riders get the best opportunity to improve their chances of a better performance, reduce the risks to injury and reduce the delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS).

A bad case of the DOMS is not good for riders, runners or sports people because it means returning to training and racing will take that much longer. Riders can avoid a bad case of the DOMS with an effective sports conditioning massage.

Here is what the riders say about Active Edge Solutions pre/post race massage:

Alex. P, Thatcham, "Very professional and effective"

Davis. D, Cambridge, "Very relaxing and will help with recovery"

Dominic.S, Clapham, "Just what was needed after 156 miles, very comprehensive full leg treatment"

Steve, K, Stamford, "Excellent just the job after hard ride"

James, D, Newark, "Very good, thanks!"

Phil, C, Witnesham, "The advice is as valuable as the massage. Thanks! Very friendly :)"

Active Edge Owner Gets Active in Orange...

The colour orange, is the inspiration for this logo. It is dynamic, vibrant and full of energy rather like it's owner. Once upon a time, Sue Burnett had a bike frame that was built just right for her and she decided to have it sprayed pink and yellow. When you spray pink on yellow it goes a zingy orangy colour. Some local riders have seen this 'Retro' bike out and about in Peterborough recently and it may even be appearing at time trial event near you soon. When you see this bike in the craziest shades of orange and yellow, it might just stand out in a rack of grey, red and black carbon fibre frames, wheels and discs.

The bike might be little older, but when your friends give you a backhanded compliment like "it's not slowing you down much" you begin to realise that it is not necessarily the craziest carbon cycle, the slinkiest style of shoe, or shiniest pair of shades that makes you go any faster, train any better or perform your personal best. It comes down to a good training approach, better nutrition and a healthy attitude to getting rest when it is needed. Make sure you include a healthy amount of rest in your exercise routine, eat healthily and approach your training with a purpose, you too will stand the rigours of time and have the time of your life.

Pre-Race: Sports massage can help runners to enhance their warm up. It helps to warm up muscles, tendons and ligaments through invigorating techniques.
