CAPE TOWN – As former president Nelson Mandela’s 100th birthday draws closer, bikers from across the country are embarking on a charity ride to help the needy.
Bikers in Johannesburg and Cape Town are holding mass rallies this weekend.
Their campaign aims to help keep girls in school by collecting sanitary pads for 3-million pupils.
The campaign will kick start in Cape Town on Saturday.
The bikers will meet at the Grand Parade then head to Drakenstein Prison, from where Nelson Mandela was freed in 1990.
On Sunday they’ll from the Nelson Mandela Foundation in Johannesburg to the Union Buildings.
If you’re like me and suffer the occasional bout of lower back pain, you’ll know that it makes even the simplest task seem monstrously daunting – leaning over the basin to brush your teeth just got serious – nevermind bigger deals like bending down to pick up a sock. Or dropped toast. Peanut butter side down.
But luck was on my side when the latest back attack hit last week. I’m smack in the middle of a three-month #WHGetsFit winter fitness challenge – and my “sport” of choice is… Pilates. The exercise mecca of alignment and stretching. And bliss, obviously.
Pilates stretches for the pain
So when my next session rolled around and I basically had to be rolled in, I politely begged Pilates Goddess Terry Goodman for some stretches to ease the eina. She obliged. And guys, I swear, these work, so give them a try.
They’re super-easy and you can do them at home while you half-watch “My Kitchen Rules” or even catch up with Ma on speaker phone.
Note: I’m talking about muscular pain here – if you feel like your ouch is an actual spinal problem, rather check in with your doc before twisting yourself into a position that could make it worse.
I’d recommend doing a couple of reps of each every morning. You can do them individually, or string them into your own sequence. Whatever works for you. Your back will thank you.
JOHANNESBURG – Kevin Anderson will go down in history books to become the first South African to go into the Wimbledon finals since Brian Norton in 1921.
Anderson faced off against American John Isner, who was making his Grand Slam semi-final debut on the Centre Court.
“Anderson vs Isner, a Wimbledon classic – you better believe it”
