Elephants very quickly learn where they're safe and where they're not, this bull is one of a small group that hang around the Zakouma HQ area during the dry season. After everything that these elephant's have been through it's remarkable that any of them are willing to trust humans at all. However they are such intelligent animals that not only do they know where there safe but they also know who their friends are and these bulls that come to the Park Director Rian Labuschagne's house have learned to take water from a garden hosepipe.
For roughly 6 months of the year between June and November Zakouma National Park is almost entirely inundated with floodwaters at this time elephants would often disperse into the surrounding area of what is now the Salamat Faunal Reserve. During this time Arab horsemen from the Darfur region of neighbouring Sudan would come to hunt the elephants as they had done for perhaps several hundred years. Traditionally a group of up to 20 horsemen armed with lances would charge a herd aiming to separate out one of the elephants. A single horseman would then ride in front of this elephant to draw its attention and get it to pursue him allowing the other men to ride in and spear it from behind with their lances. They would aim for the elephant’s hamstrings in its hind legs which if severed would bring the animal down and ensure it could not get up again. Huge numbers of elephants were killed this way and in response the surviving herds in the region have learned that at the first sign of horsemen their best defence is bunch up into tight groups to ensure that no individual can be separated out.
Today this is no defence the horsemen are Janjaweed militiamen and members of the Sudanese armed forces and they come not with the lances used by their ancestors but with AK47s, belt-fed machine guns and rocket propelled grenades. This habit of bunching up into a single large herd has meant that the poachers can easily kill 50-60 elephants in a single attack by simply machine gunning the terrified animals as they try to escape. In 2005 an aerial count found 3,885 elephants in Zakouma and the surrounding area in under a decade the population was reduced to just 430 and had stopped breeding due to the constant stress. Since African Parks took over Zakouma the poaching has been almost entirely stopped and the elephants are breeding again the population now stands at around 470.

Weight lifting routines for women , not everybody is willing to do the hard work to get there. If you want a great physique you will need a bodybuilding workout, complete with weight lifting programs that pushes you to go beyond your perceived endurance. So the question really is; how bad do you want it? If you think you can take the challenge, this article will help you achieve your goal.
Let's start with the chest-what lady can resist a broad, muscular torso on a guy? Make the most out of your exercise with sufficient warm up and stretching. This stimulates the blood flow to the muscles, cushioning it for the hard training up ahead.
Start with two sets of fifteen reps done on the bench press. Increase to three sets of heavier reps with dumbbell flyes. Emphasize your upper chest muscles by altering the degree to 25-30 degree. You can also opt to train your arms after your chest; again starting low and building up to the higher loads. Lift the weight load that will tire your muscles by the 8th rep of the set.
Crunches are still the most reliable exercise to sculpt and trim the stomach muscles. When performing this exercise, put your arms across your chest and not under your head. This significantly lessens strain you might put on your neck inadvertently. Supplement the crunches with leg raises, done either lying down with your hands under your behind; or sitting on a bench with your torso angled slightly and your feet not touching the ground. For obliques, hold a couple of dumbbells on each hand and bend from side to side slowly.
Many gym goers who aspire to be weight lifting programs are not as enthusiastic about working out their backs because they seldom see it anyway. You need to develop a strong back, this muscle group is important as it aids in the other exercises wherein you carry a lot of weight. As you begin, start with pull ups, dead lifts and chin ups. Later on as you progress incorporate more exercises like the lat pull downs, barbell shrugs (upper back); seated rows (middle back); and hyperextensions (lower back).
Shoulders are one of the most difficult body parts to target. Make sure you exercise them before you start with the triceps so it is more effective. Workouts for this muscle group include the seated shoulder press for beginners, moving up with the military press, machine presses and the lateral raises. Warm up before you go full on with 50% of the weights you normally carry.
Leg muscle workouts are physically exhausting. The upside is you see results without much problem. The squats are the basic exercise for the legs. This particular weight lifting routines hits almost all areas of your legs effectively. Incorporate lunges, leg curls, calf raises and several hamstring exercises. You want big strong thighs to carry the weight of your big strong body.
Weight lifting routines for women are the stepping stones we need to get on everyday to reach our goals. They demand immovable determination and an appetite for pain derived from physical training. You get a rock-hard body; but more than that, a winner's attitude that will bring you places even beyond the four corners of the gym.

Here is why you should consider purchasing of a SpinaliS chair:
Back injuries result from damage, wear, or trauma to the bones, muscles, or other tissues of the back. Common back injuries include sprains and strains, herniated disks, and fractured vertebrae. The lumbar is often the site of back pain. The area is susceptible because of its flexibility and the amount of body weight it regularly bears. It is estimated that low-back pain may affect as much as 80 to 90 percent of the general population in Canada.
Low-back pain is often the result of incorrect lifting methods and posture. Repetitive lifting, bending, and twisting motions of the torso affect both the degree of severity and frequency of low-back pain. In addition, low-back pain may also be the result of bad lifting habits. Sedentary lifestyles most often lead to weak abdominal muscles and hamstrings. This causes the stronger muscles which have remained strong to pull the body away from its optimal anatomical form. The imbalanced muscles cause people to continue to perform these repetitive actions. This results in misplaced force application within the spine, often resulting in hemorrhage of disks within the spinal column.

Description from the book: This punishment is reported to have been inflicted upon malefactors, who have endeavored to make their escape. A vessel containing Chunam, a species of mortar, is at hand, to be applied, by way of syptic, to the wounds. It is said, that this punishment has been lately abolished, the legislature considering that the natural inclination for liberty merited not a chastisement of such severity.

You can always tell when the Spring Football season comes in. You can always almost tell when Spring Football season comes in because the kids start coming in. And reason why they’re coming in because they usually do too many squats. Squats or lunges or deadlifts. So the kids know that. Most of the parents maybe not have an idea what they’re doing in weight training but just from that repetitive motion, too much weight, maxing out the weights in the weight room really triggers those facet joints. The cheerleaders have the same problem, they hyperextend their back. It engages those facet joints and they also have back pain as well. A lot of volleyball kids get it a lot too. I treat a lot of volleyball kids and a lot of gymnast. Sometimes they can even break their back, have a little pars fracture where this little bone here didn’t heal to that one. It’s very, very common to gymnasts and also cheerleaders and also volleyball players. But the lineman football players, they’re the one who usually get it the most because they’re maxing on too much weight and really triggers those facet joints.
It’s usually the base in the cheerleaders. They’re the ones who usually get it more than the flyers. A few schools around here in Plano, you can just tell where they come from, which school because there’s always a lot of work in the base. So usually the base girls have the most of the problems because that’s where all the load goes. When they’re catching the other kids, it goes right down to the facet joints. So the base and the cheerleaders, they’re more prone to come here than the flyers are.
You can’t get better in a day. So it takes time and sometimes, you have to modify your activity, take a few days off, and really try to not hyperextend your back. I always tell and encourage patients to get your quads strong as you can, your hamstrings strong. That will help alleviate some of the pressure that goes to those facet joints, into your lower back.

Scout, on being sent in yesterday during the snow...
"I didn't really try to bite them. They were just getting too... close. I had to make a stand! I had to tell them they are not wanted in my yard! Why do I have to come in and they get to stay out there?! Its not fair!"
For such a loving dog, she will definitely snap if you get to close. Even if you come over every day for a week, she will circle and hamstring you when you're least expecting it.
My neighbor, Carlton, called me one day and told me the dogs had gotten out of their fence [Thanks, middle son who forgot to latch it correctly] While he was readily able to get the other three back in the fence, Scout, as he tells it, "Was a tough customer..."
So when their daughter and her boyfriend came out of the house yesterday, Scout had to be restrained. The easiest way is to just put her back inside. And then you get this: sulking at the window, chin on the back of the sofa, silent cursing [as she calls them] "The English..."

Parivrtta Janu Sirsasana Pose or Revolved Head-of-the-Knee Pose
It’s beneficial to warm up with Reclining Hand-to-Big-Toe Pose or Supta Padangusthasana as it is great for opening the hamstrings which are vulnerable in Parivrtta Janu Sirsasana. If you cant reach your big toe, a strap makes this pose more accessible. Once in Revolved Head-of-the-Knee Pose, be certain to contract the quadriceps to allow the hamstrings to loosen. Otherwise the back and spine can be at risk of injury.
Eka Pada Raja Kapotasana Pose or One-Legged King Pigeon Pose
A great pose to open the chest and shoulders; eka pada raja kapotasana also provides a great stretch for both the upper and lower body. The hips, groin, thighs and psoas are activated and in the upper body, the abdomen up through the neck benefit from proper alignment in this advanced pose.

The North Carolina Tar Heels, a power five program out of the Atlantic Coast Conference, dealt Old Dominion its first home defeat since November 2015. But in the loss, ODU gained a new starting quarterback.
True freshman Steven Williams, a graduate of Woodrow Wilson H.S. in Washington, D.C., replaced starting quarterback Jordan Hoy and backup QB Blake LaRussa in the 53-23 loss.
"When you don't have a first down in the first quarter and you have no energy on the sideline because the players feel it, you have to make the move," ODU head football coach Bobby Wilder explained. "I didn't go into this game thinking [Williams] would play."
Seeing his first action, the 17 year old Williams completed 9-of-20 passes for 139 yards and two touchdowns. He also threw an interception and lost a fumble. Williams added 34 rushing yards on seven attempts.
"We haven't developed an identity on offense," Wilder noted. "Stevie Williams today gave us an identity. Steven Williams is the quarterback of the Old Dominion football team moving forward."
"They just said 'let's go," Williams explained of how he learned he was about to receive his first college playing time. "My teammates were all behind me. I just had to go do my job and we'll be fine."
Old Dominion outscored North Carolina (1-2), 16-14, in the second half, after trailing the Tar Heels, 39-7, at the half.
Prior to the game, ODU learned All-Conference USA running back Ray Lawry, the program's all-time leading rusher, has a torn hamstring. Head coach Bobby Wilder reveals the injury could keep Lawry sidelined for the remainder of the season.

Tonight I made the effort to lie down and stretch when I got home. My hamstrings and thighs have been feeling a bit tight lately which isn't good, but to be expected because I rarely stretch. I did get in to the habit a year or so ago and I started to improve my flexibility but now it's pretty poor.
It was a bit of a rush to clamber down off the sofa and on to the floor and stretch out in time for the photo so my leg isn't very straight. My Pilates instructor Tracey wouldn't be very impressed. A healthy stretched hamstring should happily get past 90 degrees and I'm not quite there so I got some work to do.
