Olympic water polo players tirelessly work their cores. But six-pack abs don’t win medals. It takes all-around core strength to endure in the pool. This means skipping the sit-ups, says Christopher Bates , men’s senior sports-medicine manager for USA Water Polo, based in Irvine, Calif.

☆ Six Exercises to Keep Knee Pain in Check
  + stars: | 2023-03-18 | by ( Jen Murphy | Photographs Larryl Pitts For The Wall Street Journal | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Knee pain is a fact of life. It affects about 25% of adults, according to the American Academy of Family Physicians. It can deter us from participating in activities like skiing, tennis and basketball, and affect basic tasks like walking up and down steps. As strength and conditioning coach for the National Basketball Association’s Washington Wizards, Kyle Moschkin constantly helps players manage knee pain.
☆ Her 400-Plus Triathlons Were Hard. Her Oscar Nomination Was Harder.
  + stars: | 2023-03-11 | by ( Jen Murphy | Photographs Erik Isakson For The Wall Street Journal | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
If you think completing an Ironman takes perseverance, try getting Hollywood to invest in the retelling of a World War I novel. It took Scottish screenwriter and professional triathlete Lesley Paterson 16 years to see her Oscar-nominated screenplay for “All Quiet on the Western Front” come to life. The persistence paid off, as the film, an adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque’s 1929 antiwar novel of the same title, took home seven BAFTAs—the most prestigious British film awards—in February, including for the best adapted screenplay. The “All Quiet” script, by Ms. Paterson, Ian Stokell and director Edward Berger, earned one of the film’s nine Academy Award nominations. The Oscars take place Sunday night.

  + stars: | 2023-03-04 | by ( Jen Murphy | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Intensifying your fitness routine could come from the simplest change possible: how you put one foot in front of the other. Walking with more intensity can burn as many calories as higher-impact activities such as running or even HIIT classes, experts say. That could mean incorporating weights, hills, intervals or a faster pace without breaking into a jog.

As we age, we can start to feel like we are made of rust. About 70% of people over age 50 said they experience at least occasional joint pain, according to the 2022 University of Michigan National Poll on Healthy Aging. Decreased range of motion in our joints often causes pain and stiffness, says Bo Hickey , a Huntersville, N.C.-based U.S. Masters swimming coach.

Kim Austin and Mark Abair bicker like an old married couple. She chides him for always starting out too fast at races. On long runs, she rolls her eyes when he insists on finding a port-a-potty. Ms. Austin is married, but not to Mr. Abair. Instead, he serves as what hard-core exercisers call a workout husband—the exercise equivalent of a work spouse.
☆ Six Exercises to Help Avoid Slipping and Falling Down
  + stars: | 2023-01-28 | by ( Jen Murphy | Photographs Tony Luong For The Wall Street Journal | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
We typically train to go faster. But mastering how to slow down and stop is just as important. Training deceleration—a series of movements that help you slow down, change direction, or stop—teaches the body how to control and safely absorb forces. For athletes like rugby players and soccer players who are constantly accelerating from zero to 100 then stopping on a dime, proper deceleration enhances performance and is key to mitigating injury.

Matthew Olyphant never imagined he would be taking his Speedo out of retirement—especially, after a total hip replacement. A four-year member of the University of California, Berkeley’s water polo team, he hobbled away from the sport with arthritic hips after graduating in 1994. Yet he helped his water polo club win the 2021 Masters national title in the 45+ age division two years ago—and five months after hip-replacement surgery.

And it is what elite mountain athletes under her watch consider before fine-tuning their skills on the slopes.
