Bananas raise money
for Terrace judo club

TERRACE — You’ve
heard of a telethon, a
walk-a-thon, well last
week a Banana-A-Thon
was held in Terrace.

There were over 180
bananas eaten by !9 par-
ticipants.

The Terrace Judo and
Ju-Jitsu. Club sponsored
the event for the purpose
of raising finances. ‘‘A
national tournament will

be held in Winnipeg,
Manitoba next year and
we're trying to raise some
funds for our travelling
expenses’, said technical
director, Shane Palahicky.
Approximately $200
was raised during this
event, but mofée..money is
needed for the par-
ticipants to be able to
compete.

Palahicky said the

children did a lot of runn-
ing after eating an average
of 10 bananas each. ‘‘It
was a lot of fun for every-
one,’’ said’ Palahicky.

_ TERRACE —‘'There are

natural accidents in ski-
ing, but in many cases,
skiers cause most of their
own problems,”’ says local
chiropractor Dale Green-
wood.

‘‘Half the injuries I see
result from faulty equip-
ment and the other half
from lack of training or
poor physical condition,”
says Greenwood.

He added that pre-
season conditioning is the
skier’s first defence
against injury, and to help
out, Greenwood has put
together a Code of Cau-
tion for this season’s
skiers:

@ Stretching and warm-
up is a must before any
physical exercise. The
muscles must be warm,
soft and pliable, allowing
joints a full range of mo-
tion.

@ Then it is important to
increase muscle strength.
@ This is best done with
repetitive weight lifting. If
you aren’t experienced, go
to a gym that can provide
professional advice
specific to pre-ski condi-
tioning. —

@ They should start you
with low weights and then
progress slowly.

@ The shocks that come
from skiing on varying

terrain all hit the lower
body first. Ideally these
should be absorbed in hips
and knees equally, so the
upper body can remain
stabilized.

@ The main muscles to
work on are quadriceps
and hamstrings, hip flex-
ors and gluteals.

@ Stretching and
strengthening these
muscles will provide pro-
tection for joints and
bones that will have to
take a lot of stress through
the winter.

After conditioning, any
skier’s best self-defence is
in proper equipment. The

Safety on the slopes

two key elements here are
ski bindings set to release
at the right moment, and
clothing that will keep you
warm and dry.

If you aren’t expert, get
instruction, Greenwood
warns,

slopes, learn your limita-
tions. Eat food that will
give you energy for the
day, and if you’re tired,
don’t go for that one last
run.

It might be your last for
the season.
