Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking for the best exercises for scuba divers? Or the latest nutrition program to make divers burn unwanted fat by mere invocation? You will not find them here! That is not what this book is about. Scuba Diving Fitness: The Fit and Healthy Diver Manifesto is the diver's wake up call to an ugly reality. Not only are scuba divers in terrible physical shape as a group (7 out of 10 are either overweight or obese), they also adhere to such outdated exercise guidelines and myths, the few who actually exercise see little to no results. Coach Izzy speaks from the heart. He has seen many who should have succeeded fail miserable because they chose to embrace the easy way out. He is frustrated and his tone is more stern -some may even call it harsh- than usual. But he makes no apologies and he is not afraid to speak the truth. Coach Izzy reveals how for too long mediocrity and conformism have been pampered under the guise of self-acceptance and political correctness. How for too long they have made it OK for divers to concoct excuses and accept inferior fitness. He unmasks these misguided, damaging, and over-entitled mantras without regret. Irreverent, thought provoking and sincere, Coach Izzy made this the first of the series and a must reading for participants of The Fit and Healthy Diver Project because he knows that unless divers understand this message, nothing else is possible and results will never materialize. He understands many will get motivated and many will be offended but he is only looking for those with the courage to face reality and understand change takes both effort and guidance. If you have been wondering about Scuba Diving Fitness, this manifesto addresses what others are afraid to bring up and is guaranteed to start you on the right track. Question is, can you stomach the truth?

Download or read book Scuba Diving Fitness written by Scott Van Hoy and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most dangerous scuba dives such as deep wreck dives or cave dives are not what kills divers. 3 of every 4 diver mishaps have 2 things in common. 1) The victim was over the age of 50, and 2) the victim was overweight or obese. Many scuba diver deaths are completely preventable by staying in shape into the retirement years. Scuba diving fitness is the missing piece of open water diver training that all scuba divers should know. This short, useful, and to the point health and fitness book teaches divers the essential but often overlooked realities of living a healthy life, and thus preventing a dive mishap. Topics covered include an overview of nutrition and exercise basics, workout planning, goal setting, meal planning, and weight loss. All discussions are linked back to diving, but this book is useful for divers and non-divers alike.

Download or read book Scuba Diving Fitness: the Missing Component Extortion, Bribes, and Shysters Cannot Get You written by Israel Sanchez and published by . This book was released on 2012-09-24 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sure, you figured out your gear. Sure you figured out the decompression tables. Why should figuring out your diver fitness be any different? So yes, you figured out your diver health program. Or so you thought. You had the motivation, the resources, and the guides. Just like a good dive plan, you had your exercise and food plans perfectly laid out. Your excitement was unparalleled, and this time, you'd conquer that stubborn scale. Fast forward three months. The mettle to continue is no longer there. Going after your diver fitness dreams is no longer fun or rewarding. Despair replaces excitement, frustration usurps the place of motivation, and confusion ensues as you cannot figure out where you went wrong. And it won't be the first time. The feeling will be all too familiar as you find yourself in this spot yet again. What do you keep doing wrong? Why is no program effective? Why do results evade you? Statistics show the failure rate for health and fitness programs is 88% within the first three months and 99% within one year. The latest advances in exercise science, nutrition, and medicine have done little to improve them. Could it be that it's time to discard the madness of focusing on the latest research, and focus instead, on what really matters? Failure is rarely due to lack of effort. Very few are as willing as scuba divers to invest time and resources to work on any factors that will improve their diving. The problem is that all the hard work and efforts are not channeled properly. The good news is that by learning to direct those efforts correctly, results materialize and become permanent. And this is what this book reveals. A solid foundation is crucial for the success of any endeavor and divers know this well. Unfortunately, when it comes to health and fitness, most people have little idea of what a solid foundation is. Good intentions and plans are excellent, but useless - and occasionally harmful - if done under the misguidance of a poor foundation. The book focuses on the largely ignored but irreplaceable foundation of preparing the mindset and its role in making your goals come to fruition. Many make the mistake of seeing it only as an emotional component, and erroneously believe that it is exercise or diet what creates lasting results. This book is written to help you, the diver, build a solid foundation that will allow your health and fitness dreams to flourish. It does so by reshaping your mindset and making it receptive to new -and occasionally conflicting- concepts. It will show you how the foundation of the mindset is largely ignored because it is so evident. It will show you how tapping into the power of the mindset is not the esoteric trickery to which it has been degraded, but rather, a continuum now widely recognized by science. As a diver, you are well acquainted with the power of the mindset and will be able to apply the lessons immediately. It was your mindset after all, what allowed you to conquer the fears that keep many away from the water. You will learn to harness this power to turn your dreams of a fit and healthy diver into a permanent reality.

The breathing exercises teach you to breathe steadily during physical exertion, keeping you calm under water. All the yoga poses are practiced on land.

Book excerpt: Divers should be the fittest people on the planet. They expose their bodies to the physical stresses inherent to diving, face countless perils, and even after a successful immersion; they incur obligations not present in other sports. Their physical fitness is paramount to their safety and enjoyment of the sport. Alas, the statistics show that 7 out of 10 divers are overweight, and over 52% of diving fatalities are attributed to poor fitness. But let's be fair. Between the obligations of daily life and off-gassing after the dives, scuba divers have only a small time window to take care of their fitness. Unfortunately, many don't know how to maximize this window and find only frustration as they start a fitness program. They soon feel they don't have the time to get fit or the money to buy expensive equipment and stop. That's why Kettlebells For A Fit Diver came to existence. Now in its second edition, it has been showing divers that superb diver fitness can be achieved with only: A kettlebell. A space without obstructions. About 3 hours per week. The desire for permanent changes. That's it. Kettlebells have reclaimed their place in mainstream fitness for one undeniable fact: They work! The book Kettlebells For a Fit Diver is the heart of the Kettlebells for a Fit Diver System. It was designed for the busy diver serious about fitness and looking to get started or fed-up with the lack of results. The author Israel "Coach Izzy" Sanchez is a renowned strength coach, pain therapist, and an avid diver himself who has made it his mission to simplify the diver's fitness journey and remove the clutter getting in the way of results. The book is only part of an extensive fitness system designed exclusively for divers by divers. Instructions to activate Premium Diver Access to The Kettlebells For a Fit Diver System are inside the book. You will get access to video courses, video exercise demonstrations, performance tools, and additional fitness resources. The value you get from the book Kettlebells For a Fit Diver by itself is immense! You will learn about: Debunking strength and cardio - So evident, their true nature gets easily overlooked. How to select the proper kettlebell size - No more random rules! The foundations for successful and safe kettlebell lifting - What you thought was common sense may not be. Detailed week-by-week, day-by-day, step-by-step training program to guide you from novice to proficient through fun and effective workouts. Detailed descriptions and pictures of featured exercises. Strategies and tools to get 2, 3, or more cycles out of the system. Debunking 8 myths in diver fitness. Debunking the misunderstanding of flexibility. And a lot more! You will see parameters familiar to you - like sets and reps- but they won't be arranged in the boring and ineffective nonsense to which most people are exposed. In seven weeks you will notice a substantial difference in your strength, flexibility, endurance, energy, and body composition. No wonder scuba diving legend John Chatterton and kettlebell authorities Vincent Metzo and David Ganulin give Coach Izzy their enthusiastic thumbs up. Coach Izzy's nearly two decades of experience and education as a strength coach and pain therapist have shown him that most folks get poor results not because they are lazy but because their efforts are guided by myths and misinformation. He offers a provocative perspective that has already transformed the lives of thousands and crushes myths in the process. Your attitude to fitness will never be the same with this fitness system designed just for divers.
