The best thing is to go rowing but if not possible then go on the rowing machine at the gym for about an hour averaging about 150 watts depend on age and fitness. But it can be boring so brong an mp3 player or something.

Running and cycling are also really good but do not give as full a workout as rowing which would exercise alot more muscles and tone the body better.

Personally I'd say the best training programme is whatever you can actually sustain beyond the initial burst of enthusiasm. In my case, it is cycling or running with my dogs in the woods. Gyms are just so boring. The only trouble with cycling is that it makes you very inflexible unless you also stretch.

Asides from plenty of carbs (beer) and and balanced diet (Curry and beer), I resolved to ensure that come the beginning of this season I would have gotten myself into shape.

Does anyone know of any training regimes that have been developed for dinghy sailing or can anyone suggest the most suitable balance of wieghts/aerobic excercise and what types of aerobic training are best (bikes, runnign etc)
Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and
oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital
ingredient in beer.
