How the cheapest, undercover, world-class sport is surviving coronavirus

By Melanie Peck

In the rolling hills above Sun Valley the views are extraordinary; to the south, the chutes at Mt. Rose ski area, to the west, Peavine Peak, and in every direction rock outcrops dot the sage-covered landscape. Nestled in the areas regional park, which itself is a hidden gem, is Lizard Peak Disc Golf Course, a 27-hole, championship course replete with a pitch and putt area for beginners or practice.

Its windy at the beginning of summer, which adds a level of frustration to the game, says Skot Meyer, whos been the president of the Reno Disc Golf Association off and on since 2011.

But wind shouldnt be a deterrent to playing.

If youre a tournament player, you should be out in the wind, Meyer says, noting that varying environmental conditions are just part of the fun of the game. Disc golf, he adds, is a sport for all levels of players, all ages, and all genders. Its multigenerational. The whole family can play together. The game is also open to all economic levels, unlike pricey ball golf, as disc golfers call regular golf.

You can play with ten dollars, says Maximus Meyer, Skots 19-year-old son, who is a full-time touring pro when the pandemic isnt shutting down events. The cost of just one disc lets you play, as it typically costs nothing, or little, to play the courses. In Reno, the courses, which are on county land, are paid for, built and maintained by volunteers from the disc golf club.

There are three top-notch courses in the Truckee Meadows. In addition to Lizard Peak at Sun Valley Regional Park, there is The Ranch, an 18-hole course above Rancho San Rafael Park, and The Wedge, a 9-hole course off Wedge Parkway at South Valleys Regional Park.

Beginners take note: The Wedge is a very good course for beginners, according to Ashlee Conley, RDGA board member and a 3rd place world champion in the advanced ladies masters division, a title she holds among numerous others. Not a lot of hiking. Easy to find the holes.

A combination of frisbee, basketball, and golf, players send a frisbee-like disc sailing toward a hoop-like chain basket and cover a multi-basket course during play, like in golf.

Players tee off toward a targetthe chain basket, which they also call the holeand try to make their shot in as few strokes, or throws, as possible. Each consecutive throw must be made from the location where the previous throw landed.

As players progress down the fairway, they thrill at birdies and despair if they shank their disc into a tree. Like golf, the joys and frustrations of playing are what make disc golf exciting.

In northern Nevada, the sagebrush, thin air, and wind can complicate the game, but also make it a challenging and fun competition.

Like golf, the game is played outdoors, which can be stunning, according to Conley. There are beautiful courses in this area, she says, not just in Reno, but in Dayton, Carson City, at Stampede Reservoir, South Lake Tahoe, Incline Village, Truckee, and Donner Lake, to name a few.

Whats really, really cool about disc golf, she adds, is that you get some awesome exercise.

Skot Meyer notes that disc golf is a great way to lose weight and get and stay in shape. The health benefits are amazing. He knows of two Vietnam veterans, both 70 to 80 pounds overweight, one with a drinking dependency. Both started playing disc golf and both lost all the weight, and the one stopped drinking.

He also knows an older gentleman with arthritis who started playing pitch and putt with his 4-year-old grandson. Because he was having fun and focusing on something other than his pain, he evolved into a tournament player who now has an active lifestyle.

During the coronavirus stay-at-home order that followed Gov. Steve Sisolaks Declaration of Emergency on March 12, people kept going to the courses, says Skot Meyer.

At first, the RDGA tried to enforce social distancing rules. The organization posted signs and sent out missives via Facebook imploring players to keep groups to a maximum of four, to avoid touching baskets, and not to touch anyone elses disc. The game can be played safely since it is outdoors and not difficult to socially distance.

When theres no health consideration, Skot Meyer says, its considerate of other people to be in groups of four or less, but theres no rule about that. But after the pandemic hit some people ignored course courtesies and the health guidelines, which Meyer said shouldve been easy to follow.

But some refused to cooperate. Bad player behavior puts a strain on our [the disc golf associations] relationship with the county, he says, noting that while the county provides the land; the club pays for the equipment, builds the courses, and does the maintenance work and upkeep. This level of volunteer work is what makes Renos disc golf courses free to the public, he emphasizes.

They deliberately ignored those requests, Skot Meyer says. Bands of bros in numbers as many as 10 to a hole clogged the courses, causing players to accumulate behind them, and, in short, ruined the enjoyable outdoor activity for everyone. As a result, RDGA volunteers, in cooperation and coordination with Washoe County, took down the baskets. Washoe County, in partnership with RDGA, stored the equipment.

The RDGA is currently working with the county on building a new course and planning others. Even though we have great community support, blatantly risky behavior harms our ability to make progress on new courses, Skot Meyer says.

Now, in mid-summer, the baskets are back up, and the club is sponsoring socially distanced doubles and tag rounds (where players compete to win the lowest numbered tag), putting clinics and more.

Mike Mack, of Virginia City, an avid player who considers himself addicted, kept on playing during the quarantine, but abided by the social distancing rules. They cant stop us, he says, lightheartedly, adding that its a safe, fun game to play as long as you adhere to social distancing guidelines, which are pretty easy since the game is played outdoors.

Mack explains that the sports popularity has been growing since he began playing some seven years ago. In 2015, he joined the Professional Disc Golf Association (pdga.com) and was given the number #70493. The PDGA has given out successive numbers to its members since its inception in 1976. The last number given out at this writing is #142968, double the number of players since Mack joined.

Its no coincidence that disc golf is often referred to as Frisbee golf. In 1966, Steady Ed Headrick, invented the Frisbee while an employee at Wham-O. In 1975, he invented the Disc Golf Pole Hole, as essential to disc golf as the hoop is to basketball. Considered the Father of Disc Golf, Headricks Professional Disc Golf Association number is #001.

Mack moved to Nevada two years ago from California, and the first place he sought out was a disc golf course. Its a great place to meet people. Conley would agree. She met her husband at the Bijou course at Lake Tahoe.

I am tired of it, tired of self-confinement, tired of not seeing friends or going to restaurants, meetings or parties. You are tired too, I am sure.

So what can we do? After much thought, I decided we MUST have a national lockdown. We've washed our hands and kept our distances, worn masks and avoided people, but it hasn't stopped the spread. So the only way is to starve this virus, lock ourselves inside, close our businesses, shut down everything except grocery stores, pharmacies and very essential businesses, so this disease can be stopped. This approach has been successful in several other countries.

An op-ed in Monday's NYT (8/10), "Here's How to Crush the Virus Until the Vaccine Arrives" by Michael Osterholm, professor and director of the Center of Infectious Disease Research at the University of Minneapolis, and Neel Kashkari, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, confirmed my point of view.

"We can continue to allow the virus to spread rapidly throughout our country or we can commit to a more restrictive lockdown, state by state, for up to six weeks to crush the spread of the virus to less than one new case per 100,000 people per day," they wrote.

Of course that creates numerous economic problems, but our nation's economy is dramatically plunging now, unemployment is increasing, small businesses are going bankrupt, and all I see is downward spiral in our economy.

Look at what's happening locally. People at first were great at self-isolation, but we have now relaxed as more businesses have opened up (too early, in my estimation). My friend the other night had dinner for two friends at her backyard table, and they wore masks for the first five minutes. The dinner went on until 8:30 p.m. The county has mandated that only people living in the same home can sit at one table, but they didn't adhere to that regulation. Another couple had 10 people -- all without masks -- outside of their house with music and dancing! I can't think of any dances where a couple stays two yards away from each other. BTW, I was randomly checking out cable channels on Saturday night and a San Jose station had a live onscreen danceathon -- more than 50 people rotating around the room, all without masks. If there was one carrier in that room ...

Palo Alto's coronavirus rate is rapidly increasing. According to the Weekly, in the five weeks "between mid-May and late June, nine new cases were reported resulting in 86 cumulative cases as of June 23. In the six weeks since then, however, no fewer than eight residents per week. The city's COVID-19 cases totaled 174 as of Aug. 5 including 20 new ones in the prior week alone.

Nationwide, people have become careless in their coronavirus concerns. With the motorcycle mass gathering in Sturgis, S.D. that occurred last week, or the recent rallies and protests in cities in practically every state, how can we get this entire nation to stay six-feet away from others?

Only with a total rigid lockdown.

I am very concerned about people not having enough money to live on, so this is the time our government must come to the rescue -- all politics aside. It will cost a lot more money if we do nothing. As starters, maybe the government should provide interest-free no payback "loans" to small businesses, as well as $600 checks weekly to all the unemployed -- and comparable amounts to all those in need.

Where do we get the money from?

One way, out of several options, is by halting some military spending. In the current federal budget, theres $146 billion for a broad laundry list of military hardware, to include $1.87 billion for 98 F-35 aircraft, which is 20 more than the presidents request, and eight F-15EX aircraft to recapitalize the F-15C/D fleet. The U.S. recently adopted a $738 billion defense budget. Let's use some of that money to help keep Americans alive, and not let them die.

As Osterholm and Kashkari said, "There is no trade-off between health and the economy. Both require aggressively getting control of the virus."

A lockdown will be difficult for all of us. But that's a lot better than having this virus rise daily while we keep constantly coping with it for months to come.

We need your support now more than ever. Can we count on you?

Being physically active and being regular at exercise is important for fitness and weight loss

When it comes to working out, spending more time in exercising does not necessarily mean that you are going to get better results. Short duration workouts like HIIT and Tabata workouts are designed in a way that it takes only a few minutes to complete them. These workouts are high in intensity and can improve your strength and stamina. Celebrity fitness trainer and mother Kayla Itsines says that it is not necessarily true that working out for longer will give you better results.

In one of recent posts on Instagram, she talks about she has designed most of her workouts under 30 minutes. Barring the ongoing scenario of lockdown and work from home, most people, especially parents find very less time to make space for full-fledged workout every day.

For those of you find it difficult to workout without a mat, then here's a routine that can be perfect for you. The following workout, shared by Itsines on Instagram, includes a total of five exercises. All you need to do this workout is yourself, and a space equivalent to a mat.

A balanced diet, regular exercise, and a healthy lifestyle this combination is the key to maintaining a healthy weight. Eating more of certain foods can rev up your metabolism, and help you lose weight. Protein-rich foods can keep you feeling full for longer and help you eat fewer calories throughout the day, which eventually helps you lose weight. As eggs are an excellent source of protein, adding it to your diet can do wonders if youre trying to lose weight. Several studies have also shown the benefits of eating eggs for weight loss.

Protein is extremely filling, which means you will eat less throughout the day. Also Read - 6 foods that you must definitely add to your high-protein diet

Research has shown that eating a protein-rich breakfast increases a persons satiety (feeling of fullness), which leads to a reduction in caloric intake throughout the rest of the day. A 2012 study published in the British Journal of Nutrition also suggested that dietary protein may help treat obesity and metabolic syndrome.

Protein is the building block of your muscles. Therefore, eating a protein-rich diet can help you to build and maintain strong muscles. Adding more protein to your can enhance your metabolism and help you burn more calories.

While eggs can help in your weight loss journey, when and how you eat the food plays an important role in reaping its benefits. Here we will tell you the best ways to use eggs to support weight loss.

To get the best results, eggs should be eaten in breakfast. It will fuel your body with energy and will also keep you satiated for the rest of the day. Your digestion system is also at its best in the morning and thus it will be easier to break down proteins and many other nutrients present in eggs.

A 2005 study overweight women who ate an egg-based breakfast consumed significantly less food throughout the rest of the day than the group who ate a bagel-based breakfast.

If youre on a weight loss journey, avoid adding animal fat, such as butter or bacon grease, to your egg-based meals. Also, pair them with vegetables for a fiber-rich and filling breakfast.

Egg yolk is often avoided by people on a weight loss regime, however, researchers have recently concluded that the fat present in egg yolks actually helps to reduce the bad cholesterol from the body. Thus experts say eating 1 or 2 whole eggs in a day may not affect your cholesterol levels or increase your risk of heart disease. However, the American Heart Association recommends that people at risk of heart disease should consume only two egg whites a day.

A healthy diet should include plenty of protein, good fats and carbs in order to help you feel energised throughout the day.

Eating plenty of fibre via vegetables and fruit will also help you to feel fuller for longer, as will protein.

But while its important to make the right choices for what goes onto your plate, there could be another element thats missing from your diet.

Your body is made up of two-thirds water, and hydration plays a key role in helping your body function at its best, explained Dr. Naomi Newman-Beinart, nutritionist and specialist in health psychology.

It can sometimes be tricky to know the difference between feelings of hunger and thirst, Dr Naomi warned.

If you are often hungry and find that you are overeating, you may not be aware that you are actually dehydrated.

It sounds simple, but studies have shown that staying hydrated can make a difference to the number of calories you eat each day.

Researchers in America found that women who drank a glass of water before meals consumed between 75-90 calories fewer from their meal, and were more likely to lose weight than those who did not drink water before meals, Dr Naomi said.

Overeating is one of the primary causes of obesity, with research showing that Britons eat as much as 1,000 more calories a day than the recommended daily intake.

Its suggested that women should consume 2,000 calories a day, while men can have slightly more at 2,500.

But to lose weight, you need to create a calorie deficit - by burning off more calories than you eat.

Drinking water is therefore essential - not only as it can affect appetite, but because its calorie-free - meaning you wont be adding extra calories without realising by staying hydrated.

Dr Naomi recommended setting a reminder on your phone if youre not a big drinker - in the healthy sense - so that you sip enough throughout the day.

But if water doesnt spark your fancy, you can stay hydrated and reap the weight loss benefits in other ways.

Vegetables and fruits such as cucumber, watermelon and carrots are delicious when made into a fresh juice, and also really good to boost your vitamin and mineral intake, advised Dr Naomi.

Fruits and vegetables also contain water, so consuming them fresh or whole will up your hydration.

Alternatively, you can add slices of lemon, orange or lime to a glass of water to give it a twist.

Hollywood royalty! Kelly Osbourne has been in the public eye her entire life and as a result, fans have been able to watch her transform before their very eyes.

Oh my gosh, you lost a lot of weight, Olivia commented, along with a kissy face emoji. Thats right, Mamma Mai. I lost 85 pounds since I last saw you. Can you believe it? the former Fashion Police host replied.
