• The Most People Spinning (Stat

  • From: gwr_adj_archive
  • Description:

    Employees of the health club chain Esporta registered a new Guinness World Records™ achievement on Thursday, 19 February 2009 with the most people spinning (static cycling) simultaneously. A group of 412 cyclists achieved this feat at Esporta's annual conference at The Gloucestershire Health & Rackets Club.

    

    
    The employees came from all over the UK and were broken down into four area groups across the floor space of a massive inflated sports hall. After a day of powerpoint presentations, and before the evening presentations continued, employees of all ranks and levels of fitness streamed into the hall and prepared themselves for an energetic 45-minute spinning workout. They were spurred on by four members of their executive management team and led by their chief executive officer and class instructor, all on a stage at the front of the hall, while other members of the conference handed out much-needed supplies of water.

    

    Everyone was inspired enough to finish the whole workout and they were certainly determined to claim back their record from last year. There was a huge uproar at the end of the session – confetti cannons were fired, fireworks went off on the screens to either side of the stage – when it was announced that the record attempt had been successful.

    
    This is one feat that had been achieved with pure sweat and toil – trust GWR's Nadine Causey as a witness to that fact!

    Dr. Thienna Ho (Geneticist and Author) Sets New Guinness Book World Record for Most Sumo Squats in One Hour SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. ? On December 16, at the age of almost 40, Dr. Thienna, a leading skin care author who is conscious of health and fitness on all levels, broke the Guinness Book World Record for the most Sumo squats in one hour. The event was overseen by an official adjudicator from the U.K. at the San Francisco State University Basketball Gymnasium. Adjudicator, Carlos Martinez, watched while Dr. Thienna, without a break, completed an incredible 5,135 squats in one hour. Dr. Thienna started practicing the Sumo squat in her 20s when she felt it was time to start maintaining her physical health. She was first introduced to the move by her father, a fourth-degree black belt. "Sumo squats work every major muscle group in the body," Dr. Thienna said. "Specifically, they help to strengthen problem areas such as the inner and outer thighs while working the whole upper body and providing a vigorous cardiovascular workout and improved flexibility." Dr. Thienna is thrilled about having achieved this new record, not only for personal satisfaction, but to raise the awareness of the benefits associated with Sumo squat exercise, especially for women. "Squat exercises are typically associated with men. My hope is that women will embrace this exercise as it targets many common problem areas that typically concern them," Thienna explained. Sharing her love of health and fitness is what Dr. Thienna enjoys most. She is the author of "Unlocking the Mystery of Skin Color" (ISBN: 978-0-9792103-0-3), a book that teaches people how to obtain a brighter, clearer, and healthier complexion. During research for the book, she discovered that the techniques involved in the Natural Fairskin Method(TM), not only gave her a clear and healthy complexion, but it also provided her with amazing strength, endurance, and stamina. When Dr. Thienna first started practicing squats, she did them three times per week, 500-1,000 squats per session. Normally, it took 30 to 45 minutes to complete each session. So, to complete 5,135 in one hour is a tremendous breakthrough and one which she greatly attributes to the Natural Fairskin Method(TM). In addition, Dr. Thienna reports no back, shoulder, wrist, hip, or knee pain; minor muscle soreness quickly disappears.
