Remarks by Secretary Carter at a Troop Event in Baghdad, Iraq
Secretary of Defense Ash Carter
STAFF: ... Secretary of Defense. And Mr. Carter, sir, and Mr. Secretary, we're very honored to have you here, today. We've got some troopers who are doing the Lord's work here in Iraq, enabling the fight against Daesh, or ISIL.
And they are very happy to have the opportunity to hear a few words from you. And I just want all of you to know that we're very lucky to have Secretary Carter back in Washington, D.C. If you're ever wondering who has got your back while you're facing the enemy, it's the secretary of defense.
Every day, he is doing his own form of battle to help us do our form of battle. So, sir, without any further ado, it's our great honor and privilege.
SECRETARY OF DEFENSE ASH CARTER: Thanks, (inaudible).
Thanks very much, General MacFarland and let me, first of all, just on the note that the general just said to you -- just to change the subject -- (inaudible) -- the thing I want to say to you, is I am in my job to help you do your job.
It's not the other way around. So, I'm here to find out from General MacFarland here, who –I’ve known a long time, and I have -- (inaudible). I was lucky when I -- (inaudible) -- as we -- (inaudible) -- General MacFarland -- (inaudible) -- threat.
I have no doubt that that's the -- (inaudible). It's holiday season, that's one reason to be here -- (inaudible) -- used to be here, because holiday season was coming up, and I wanted my family to be able to tell you how much we appreciate the fact that you're away from your family protecting our country, defeating an enemy that has to be defeated. And that's going to leave a better world for everyone, for your children.
That's the noblest thing you can do with your life, and that's what you're doing, as members of our spectacular military. The thing was, to your family --
STAFF: Here's -- that mic, sir. Take this one .
SEC. CARTER: Okay. Can you hear me now? You know what, can you hear me if I just talk? You can ask me --
SEC. CARTER: Okay, woohoo. Now, you can really hear me.
SEC. CARTER: Yeah. I hope you got the first part. But at any rate, the point is we're here to say thank you, and we'd like to say thank you to your family, to say happy holidays. To say bless you for what you're doing -- and I say that very much from my family in our hearts.
But I really do think I speak for everyone in America. People know -- I mean, you know that not everybody is an expert in what you do, not everybody will have served. But over all, I mean, I think they get this has to be done, this fight has to be fought. It's for civilization against evil. It's for America against its enemies.
You guys are doing it. And that's how you're spending your Christmas, so that everybody else gets to spend their Christmas waking up in the morning, opening their presents. You know, playing with their kids under the Christmas tree, having a nice dinner.
They get to do that because they have security. Just think about it, if we didn't have security, none of that stuff would matter to you, you'd just be worried about your security all the time.
So, you provide the conditions under which people get to live their lives and dream their dreams, and raise their children.
And maybe every day, they're not thinking of that. But if that ever went away, they would think about it all the time. So, it is the noblest -- I'm sure it's not the most fun thing you could be doing on your holiday, but it's the noblest thing you could be doing.
That's the first thing I wanted to say to you.
The second thing I wanted to say to you is that because of you, we are going to win this campaign against Daesh -- I don't have any doubt about it. -- (inaudible) -- everybody here has been calling it Daesh, I'm used to calling it ISIL.
But whatever you call it, here in Iraq and also in Syria, we have to defeat it, we're going to defeat it, and we're looking for ways to up our game and hasten that demise of ISIL, here in Iraq, also in Syria.
And I should say, by the way, from the nature of our world today, and -- I call it sort of social media terrorism, that even though the parent tumor of ISIL is here in Iraq and Syria, it's like a cancer. It metastasizes around the world.
So, we're combating everywhere else, including at home. And we'll do that, and we have do that, but we have to take out the parent tumor, which is here in Iraq and Syria.
Here in Iraq, we do that by importantly supporting the Iraqi Security Forces. We have to build them, we have to help them be successful, we have to do more than we've been doing, as circumstances arise, and of course, subject to Iraqi approval.
But to help that -- I expect us to be doing more. And I told General MacFarland, we're looking for him to bring us ideas for how we can hasten this.
Now, obviously, a lot of it hinges on the performance of the Iraqis, and we need to help strengthen. But we need to have things that no other contributor can possibly bring.
And there are others around the world, other members of the coalition who can bring things to the fight -- and I'm talking to them about supporting the fight, too, because this has to be what it needs to be, which is a fight of the civilized world against this form of evil.
And since it is good versus evil, and it's the powerful, after all, in the end of day, it's us, the powerful and the many against the few.
We will win. But we need to win quickly, and that in turn, is on you, your ingenuity. And I'm here to help you, and there will be others joining the fight as well, both here in Iraq, and here in Syria.
So, happy holidays to you all. I hope you will, next time you're talking to your family, tell them, number one, that you were picked to do your duty on this holiday, even though you can't be with them.
Number two, the importance of what you're doing, and the determination that we have to destroy this enemy as soon as possible. Your country is 100 percent behind you.
So, happy holidays. I think, now, we're going to take some time -- can we do that? Where people can ask a question? Anybody have a -- Peter, is that okay?
A couple of -- it doesn't even have to be a question, it can be an observation, something that you know that you don't think I know or a suggestion you have, anything at all.
Q: I mean, I can talk about this, sir.
SEC. CARTER: Okay.
Q: We had already seen sort of a -- we have -- we have ISIL in Iraq, we have ISIL in Syria, and now that you're here supporting the troops, you're having ISIL or ISIS influencing or standing up in Afghanistan.
With that said, you see this continuing to be more of a SOF fight for the leaders, or –do you see a more conventional -- (inaudible).
SEC. CARTER: Well, in every case, whether Afghanistan -- I don't know that everybody can hear, but the point was ISIL in Iraq and Afghanistan, he hears it's spreading to Afghanistan, which is true both in the sense that there are people in Afghanistan who might have been in a different organization like the Taliban in the past who get all jazzed up by this ISIL thing, so they decided to call themselves ISIL.
And then there are also, it appears to be some deliberate attempt by ISIL here to create a new sect in Afghanistan. Both of those things are going on. Either way, it also has to be fought in Afghanistan.
The question was is this is going to be very much a special forces type of war. And I think the answer to that is basically yes, that there's some providers of -- let me say basically, you have this -- these are wars that are taking place in the territory of other societies, right? So at the end of the day, after the enemy is defeated, they have to run their own country. And in that sense, the force that ultimately defeats the enemy has to be capable and motivated local forces.
We can enable them, we can help create them, but in the end, we can't substitute for them because we can't govern those places. So that's our basic strategic approach, and that's basically saying it's essentially an enabling strategy.
SOF does that, but, you know, conventional forces do that too, because they -- there might be opportunities for them and there are certainly opportunities for them in training, equipping, there's opportunity for our logisticians, opportunities for our acquisition people, huge opportunities for our air forces, right, and our naval forces. (Inaudible) -- you see that all the time -- (inaudible) -- right, every day. Big.
So it really is the whole joint force involved in it, even though the strategic approach is the one I described, of enabling capable and motivated forces to get control over their societies and stamp out extremism in their societies. But it will be a whole of our force.
By the way, while I'm rattling on, I should say it's actually a whole-of-government too, because there's a political side to this, right, all these societies. And really importantly for us, there's a law enforcement, homeland security, intelligence, you know, my colleagues around the U.S. government matter in this, as well as everyone. That's a whole government approach. Yes?
SEC. CARTER: The question was what will be the role of the U.S. military in Iraq after the defeat of Daesh? I mean, I would expect that we'll continue to have a relationship, a friendly relationship, with the government of Iraq like we have now. And we have friends all over the world, right?
We have allies all over the world and I expect that we will continue to have a strong defense for lots of other reasons in Iraq, just like we have around the world, from Japan and Australia to our NATO allies to countries in our hemisphere. And so I expect Iraq to continue to be a security friend of the United States.
I hope there isn't a war going on in their territory after Daesh is -- you know, nobody else comes along. But that's -- they can be a security partner for us, and that's a –good thing. That's an asset for our security in the end.
And I there's a lesson in there, I think, that's important for all you to know that is a tribute to you, which is this. If you look around the world and you say who has friends and allies, it's America. You know, we have almost all the friends and allies, and most of our antagonists -- I'm not -- I'm not talking about ISIL but I'm talking about countries that we have difficulty with don't have any friends.
Well, why is that? Two reasons. First is you. People like working with Americans, they like working with you. You treat them decently and you're effective. You're tough, you're effective, you're successful. And the second thing is I think that what we stand for, what America stands for, the principles we stand for, are attractive to people. But we're an easy side to be on, and that's why we have so many allies and friends, and I expect that Iraq can be that in the future.
Another place in the world where the United States has friends and where if troubles arise in this part of the world, we can count on them and to get themselves back on their feet and meet this enemy as a capable organization and a capable military friend. One more. Yes sir?
Q: Sir, -- (inaudible). I'm glad you mentioned our allies –in a recent article, you were quoted saying that the United States has no better friend or ally than Britain, and the U.S. and UK must work together in order to create a new playbook in regards to defense from terrorists, especially regarding cyber type of warfare.
How do you think that will affect -- (inaudible) -- Army and what change can we see in terms of -- (inaudible)?
SEC. CARTER: That's a great question, a huge question. And so everybody -- for those of you who didn't hear it, it was rightly quoting me saying that we have no better friend -- that's the phrase we use with respect to the United Kingdom, our special relationship -- than the UK. And I also named some things that we also need to do for our security, in addition to what you're doing here. You mentioned cyber --
Q: Yes, sir.
SEC. CARTER: -- and other domains. Europe deterrence, so I'll say something about that. That's not your mission right here, but let's remember we are a very powerful country with very great global responsibilities. So even as we accomplish this mission here, we continue to keep the peace elsewhere.
So -- and you mentioned Europe. Well, you know, Europe, just in case you haven't noticed, has had a problem with Russia, right? Russia in Ukraine. That's caused us and the Europeans, including the United Kingdom, to recognize that we need to strengthen the NATO alliance. And I mentioned the new playbook because as you think about NATO, a lot of people think back to the Cold War, that isn't the way conflict will break out in Europe today.
We need to think about hybrid warfare, cyber warfare and these new forms of warfare that weren't around back in the Cold War days but that do characterize modern conflict and make sure that we can dominate those new domains just like we dominated the domains in the Cold War.
And I could keep going around the world. I mean, we have our issues in other parts of the world as well. Just to take NATO and Russia issues, NATO, many of the NATO countries are involved in the coalition, so they're fighting Daesh, they have a problem with ISIL in their own countries, as Paris illustrated. But they're also worried about the security future of Russia. What do they do? Once again, they turn to America because of our amazing capability represented by you, and also what we stand for.
And on that note, let me once again thank y'all. Tell your families how immensely proud you -- and Stephanie.
SEC. CARTER: We are so proud to be a part of you and to be part of this wonderful family that protects our country and leaves a better future for everyone. I'm sorry you can't be with your families, but I know that we -- all the rest of us will be thinking of you with thanks on Christmas Day. Thank you.
Oh, now I want to do something. Now, if everyone would come up one-by-one, I get a little chance to look you in the eye, give you this still rare Ash Carter coin --
-- mark it on eBay, and thank you myself. We'll get a picture of you and thank you for -- come on up.

Железнодорожные перевозки. История возникновения и развития
Ныне грузовые железнодорожные перевозки представляют собой симбиоз инженерных достижений в области средств передвижения и оптимального процесса управления продвижением товаров и услуг через поставщиков к потребителям. Железнодорожные превозки. ТК БИРТРАНСЖелезнодорожные перевозки грузов по-прежнему считаются самым быстрым, удобным и наименее затратным способом доставки различных грузов – через тяжелой строительной техники предварительно скоро портящихся продуктов питания.Объясняется это в первую очередь тем, сколько железнодорожные перевозки находятся вне конкуренции, если филиппика соглашаться о транспортировке тяжелых и негабаритных грузов: строительной техники (кранов, экскаваторов, самосвалов), крупногабаритных технических изделий (предположим, опор ЛЭП, железобетонных плит, перекрытий и т.п.). Железнодорожные превозки. ТК БИРТРАНС Быть этом размеры данных грузов ограничены чуть размерами самого подвижного состава, который будет осуществлять железнодорожную перевозку. Более того - современная строительная техника целенаправленно проектируется именно с расчетом на то, который ее доставка будет исполняться железнодорожным транспортом.
Для всем протяжении цивилизации личность вовек задумывался, чем ему перетащить иначе перевезти тяжеловесный, крупногабаритный, правда и весь всякий ноша, какой он лично не в состоянии перенести. Беспричинно были изобретены простые транспортные средства, сиречь сани, повозка, плот, лодка. Если старание человека в качестве тяговой силы уже было не достаточно, люди стали извлекать животных: волов, верблюдов и, конечно же, лошадей.
Снова в Древней Греции существовала необходимость перевозки тяжеловесного и негабаритного груза. Чтобы сокращения водного пути из Саронического залива в Коринфский существовал каменный способ, называемый Диолком с глубокими желобами в качестве направляющих и кто служил ради перемещения волоком тяжелых кораблей.

A report commissioned by the National Trust for Historic Preservation found that it is more ecologically friendly to rehabilitate existing buildings than to build new structures, regardless of the number of green whistles and bells they contain, National Real Estate Investor said. "The thought was that in order to build green you had to build new," but the numbers don't add up that way, said Elizabeth Heider, chair of the board of directors at the U.S. Green Building Council. It can take between 10 and 80 years for a new energy-efficient building to overcome, through more efficient operations, the negative climate change impacts that come from construction. Environmental savings from reuse range from 4 and 46 percent over new construction when comparing buildings with the same energy performance level, according to the report. The study conducted side-by-side comparisons of retrofits and new buildings in seven construction categories in Chicago, Atlanta, Phoenix and Portland, Ore.

Exclusive Representation of the Nativity Scene.
Saint Symphorian’s father was Faustus, one of the most distinguished men in the city of Autun, who still had the misfortune of being bound to the worship of idols. Unbeknownst to her husband, his mother, who was a fervent Christian, had brought up her son in the principles of the true religion. This was at the time of the persecutions, towards the end of the second century. In those times of bloody memory, to declare oneself strongly for the religion of Jesus Christ, to speak with contempt of the pagan ceremonies, was to run to martyrdom. Symphorian, a young man with a noble and sincere soul, was unable one day to avoid seeing a large procession that accompanied the statue of Cybele, carried on a pompously decorated chariot, and was urged to adore the statue like the others; but it was pointless. Having thus been arrested as a seditious and impious person, the judge made him beat and threw him in prison. After several interrogations, always followed by unheard-of torments, his death sentence was finally pronounced. As he was being led to the place of execution outside the city, his mother, fearing that he would not complete his glorious sacrifice, cried out to him from the ramparts: “My son, remember the living God; arm yourself with constancy and strength; lift up your heart and look up to Him who reigns in heaven. They do not take away your life, but only change it into a better one; they lead you to eternal happiness. The way is narrow and difficult, but it is short.” The holy martyr, animated by this fiery speech, but much more strongly animated by the feeling of hope that lived within him, crowned his sacrifice with great courage and joy. He went to receive from God, in heaven, imperishable goods and honors, as a reward for his constant fidelity in believing and hoping in Him who is always faithful to His word.

- 2 large, slightly under-ripe pears
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 cups water
- 12 thin slices of fresh ginger, peeled
- 1 lemon, halved
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F, with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Make the Syrup
- In a wide saucepan or a skillet over medium-high heat, combine the sugar and water. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook it for about 2 minutes. Add the ginger slices and continue boiling for 2 more minutes. Reduce the heat to low and allow the syrup and ginger to simmer while you prepare the pears. Prepare the Pears
- Cut each whole pear into very thin, uniform slices, preferably 1/16 inch thick—about as thick as a quarter. I cut mine lengthwise for the perfect pear profile. Squeeze the lemon over the slices to keep them from browning. Hint: A Mandoline makes it easier to produce uniform, intact slices. If you’re winging it by hand, use a super–sharp, wide-blade knife for better control. I also suggest adding an extra pear to make up for slices that don’t come out intact.
- Turn the burner to medium and bring the syrup to a low simmer. Working in 2 batches, add the pear slices to the syrup in one layer. Simmer for 2 minutes while spooning the syrup over the slices, and then remove the pan from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pears from the pan to a plate. Then arrange the pears on the prepared baking sheets so that they’re close but not touching. Poach and arrange the second batch of slices. Bake the Pears
- Prepare an area for the chips to cool, either on wire cooling racks or a parchment- or waxed-paper lined surface. Bake the slices for 90 minutes to 2 hours until they’re dry to the touch and rigid when lifted up. Turn them with rubber-tipped tongs or a non-stick spatula. You may need to work some of them loose and peel then up.
- Return the chips to the oven, turning the baking pans and switching their positions in the oven. Bake until the chips are crisp and completely dry but not browned-for another 20 to 40 minutes, depending on their thickness. Note: The chips harden as they cool, so send a test chip to the freezer for a minute to evaluate readiness.
- Transfer the chips to the wire rack or prepared surface to cool. They'll harden and crisp as they cool. Serve them at room temperature.
You can make pear chips up to 3 days ahead. Store them in an airtight container between layers of waxed paper or parchment paper.

Get ready to add some new chips to your snack inventory. In Chips: Reinventing a Favorite Food, author Chris Bryant provides an array of recipes for chips that allow you to take control of the ingredient and cooking method. The recipes range from savory to sweet, and include fruits, vegetables and other delicious options. This recipe for pear chips is from the section, “Fruit.”

Dessert chips? Of course! Crystallized pear chips are a delightful treat on their own, but these gem-like creations also carry the power to transform. On a cheese board, set a stack of crisp, sweet Crystal Pears between a sharp gorgonzola and a nutty Swiss. On the dessert cart, atop cupcakes and ice cream, Crystal Pears will glisten like jewels.
Don’t be tempted to hurry the process and crank up the heat. Going low-&-slow helps ensure that the pear chips come out bright yellow-gold. And save the syrup that remains once your pears are poached! It makes a delicious pear-and-ginger simple syrup for beverages and desserts and can serve as the start of a delectable sorbet.
For this recipe, I like the form and true pear flavor of green Bartletts, but you can use any pear variety. Select fruit that’s under-ripe and use all of it—skin, core, and seeds. Go with three pears if you want to cull out the imperfect specimens, and four if you’re cutting by hand.

Riots erupted in Osaka’s Kamagasaki district after a day-laborer was arrested June 12, and reportedly tied to a chair and beaten in police custody. When he was released the next day and told comrades what had happened, a protest of several hundred was held outside the police station. Riot police with body armor and water cannons were mobilized. At least seven were arrested in two nights of clashes. (Infoshop, June 16; UK Indymedia, June 15)

1 Thus, AEG-1 plays a fundamental role in aggressive progression of the carcinogenic process. The molecular mechanism by which AEG-1 induces these profound changes
is gradually being clarified. AEG-1 is a 582-amino-acid protein with a transmembrane domain and multiple nuclear localization signals.1 In cancer cells, Venetoclax cost AEG-1 is detected in the cytoplasm as well as on the cell membrane and in the nucleus.2 Depending upon location, AEG-1 interacts with different protein complexes regulating diverse functions. AEG-1 interacts with nuclear factor kappa light-chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) and CREB-binding protein (CBP) promoting NF-κB-mediated transcription,6 whereas it interacts with YY1, along with CBP, to repress transcription.7 In the cytoplasm, AEG-1 is a component of the RNA-induced silencing complex and assists oncomiR-mediated degradation of tumor-suppressor messenger RNAs (mRNAs).8 AEG-1 facilitates the translation of specific mRNAs, such as the mRNA for the multidrug resistance gene, multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1), which contributes to chemoresistance.9 The membrane-located AEG-1 promotes the interaction of cancer cells Apoptosis inhibitor with lung
endothelium, thus augmenting metastasis.3 The identification of the ADP ribosylation factor diverse interacting partners indicates that AEG-1 may be a scaffold protein mediating the formation of multiprotein complexes in different intracellular compartments. AEG-1 plays an important role in hepatocarcinogenesis.2 AEG-1 mRNA and protein overexpression, as well as amplification of the AEG-1 gene, was detected in a large percentage of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients.2 To better comprehend the role of AEG-1 in hepatocarcinogenesis and to decipher the underlying molecular mechanism(s)
in an in vivo context, we have generated a transgenic (TG) mouse with hepatocyte-specific expression of AEG-1 (Alb/AEG-1). We document that, compared to wild-type (WT) mice, the hepatocarcinogenic process is significantly amplified in Alb/AEG-1 mice. We unraveled novel aspects of AEG-1, including induction of steatosis, protection from senescence, and activation of coagulation pathways, which contribute to its tumor-promoting functions. This is the first study analyzing AEG-1 function in vivo, and the Alb/AEG-1 mouse provides a useful model to further understand the hepatocarcinogenic process and evaluate emerging novel therapies for this invariably fatal disease.

The Partial Vehicle Wrap installation process is both fun and easy to do.
There are a few basic steps that need to be completed before you being the installation of your FanWrap. We also recommend that you watch our installation video located on our website to familiarize yourself with the installation process before you begin.
STEP 1: Open your FanWraps package and review the enclosed materials. Select what components of your FanWrap sheet that you wish to apply to your vehicle. With scissors, carefully cut around the desired wrap image isolating it from the other sheet components. Carefully remove the excess vinyl from around the image by pulling slowly from any corner (this is referred to as “weeding”.)
STEP 2: Thoroughly wash the exterior of your vehicle. Specifically where you intend to install your FanWrap. Do not use any automotive soaps that contain waxes. If there is wax on your vehicle your FanWrap will adhere to the unstable surface of the wax and fail. You want to ensure your vehicles surface is clean and free of wax, oil, other debris and contaminants.
STEP 3: Thoroughly dry your vehicle. Any moisture on the surface will cause installation failure. Place your FanWrap on the vehicle with the paper backer still attached (to decide on graphic placement). Once the location has been determined, make note of where your FanWrap will overlap door handles, door seams, window seams, etc. Apply cutting tape to these areas as per instructional video.
STEP 4: Remove the paper back from the top half of your FanWrap and loosely apply it to your vehicle. Use the supplied FanWraps Squeegee to apply the graphic to your vehicle. Apply the squeegee to the graphic in horizontal passes. Working the graphic from top to bottom. Once the top portion of your FanWrap is applied you may remove the remaining paper backer and continue to squeegee the FanWrap onto the vehicle.
If you encounter trouble areas such as door handles, body hinges or surface irregularities, you may need to make relief cuts with a pair of scissors for optimal fit and to prevent unwanted creasing.
STEP 5: Once your FanWrap has been applied, you will need to complete any trimming that may be required with the cutting tape you applied in Step 3. Remove filament from the tape and begin to gently pull the filament towards the FanWrap. Once the filament has reached the FanWraps edge, hold the edge of the FanWrap and give the filament a quick tug to initialize the cut. Continue pulling the filament in the direction of the cut to complete the trimming in this area.
If you do not complete these steps you take the risk of an early failure of your FanWrap.
Tips and Tricks: Don’t get discouraged if you have air bubbles or a small wrinkle in your FanWrap. Our FanWrap material has specially designed air egress channels that prevent the trapping of large air bubbles. Small air bubbles will transfer out of the FanWrap in a couple of days. The FanWrap substrate is gas permeable and won’t hold air bubbles.

Kayaking can be such an out-of-this-world relaxing experience, so much so that it hardly ever feels like exercise at all. Until the next day, that is, when the muscle soreness kicks in – and you can’t help but wonder:
What muscles does kayaking work?
Expert paddlers make it look effortless – but kayaking is one heck of a good workout.
It might seem like your back and arms do most of the work. However, paddling targets several large muscle groups.
Stick around; you’re in for a surprise!
What Muscles Does Kayaking Work? 6 Muscle Groups Targeted By Kayaking
Asking what muscles does kayaking work is a very logical question, and most people are surprised by the answer – I know I was when I first researched the topic and discovered the muscles used.
From an outsider’s perspective, I can see why many are quick to label kayaking as an outdoor activity focused on leisure and relaxation, and wouldn’t consider kayaking a good workout.
You’re sitting the entire time – how hard can it be, right?
A kayaking session can be anything from a leisurely paddle in a nearby lake to a full-blown sprint that leaves you exhausted and gasping for air. But while the paddling effort and overall kayaking workout intensity may vary, the impact it has on the paddler’s body – yes, the entire body – does not.
There aren’t many outdoor activities that can target as many muscle groups as kayaking can.
If you ever caught yourself thinking, “What muscles does kayaking work,” here’s a round-up of major muscle groups that are put to use whenever you hit the water in your kayak!
The Role Of Back Muscles In Strong Paddling Motions
When evaluating the muscles used in kayaking, arms aside, back muscles are easily one of the most talked-about muscle groups in the kayaking world.
So, let’s start with your back then.
The three primary muscles in your back that kayaking puts to work, and the drivers behind every kayak paddle stroke, are:
The largest muscles in your back, also known as lats. Good lat strength is key to transfer the energy from your lower body and into the paddling movement. When one arm rows and the other extends, only to contract inward, toward the body; those are your lats hard at work.
Besides ensuring good kayaking posture, rhomboid muscles are in charge of pulling the shoulder blades toward the spine’s middle. This muscular movement occurs at the end of each stroke and is called scapular retraction.
Most people are familiar with the upper trapezius, the so-called shrug muscles, but traps shoulder blades reach the middle and lower back regions. These muscles dictate neck and shoulder blade movements. Kayakers are known to overuse their upper traps, so try not to overlook your middle and lower trapezius.
An adequate kayaking seat with a supportive backrest is never a bad investment for an avid paddler. Proper posture and technique, combined with a quality seat, are paramount in keeping the back muscles healthy and pain-free at the end of each paddling session.
What Muscles Does Kayaking Work In The Shoulder Area?
Your shoulder muscles work hand in hand with your back and arm muscles; all three muscle groups are crucial for excellent kayaking performance.
So, yes, kayaking does recruit the shoulder muscles – primarily the deltoids – while the four rotator cuff muscles take care of rotation and stabilize your shoulders and arms.
However, the actual load distribution isn’t necessarily equal:
When it come to parts of the shoulder muscles used in kayaking, the Posterior deltoids take on most of the work in a forward paddling motion, which could ultimately lead to the overdevelopment of the deltoid muscle’s rear head. This muscular imbalance puts kayakers at risk of a shoulder injury; shoulder joint wear or rotator cuff tears – teres major or teres minor,
You can combat this by balancing front and posterior deltoids through exercise focusing on the rotator cuff such as; a high cable row / face pull or power band rotations. Alternatively, practice maintaining the so-called “paddler’s box” – an imaginary rectangular formed by your arms, chest, and the paddle.
Upper Arms, Forearms & Grip Muscles: Is Kayaking Good For Arms?
Paddling consists of a catch and pull action. As one arm pulls in, targeting the biceps on that side of the body, the other will respond with a countering forward extension that involves the triceps.
That’s pretty much the definition of how antagonistic muscle pairs work.
And as your biceps and triceps are doing their thing, the power generated by your back, arms, and core muscles is ultimately transfers to the paddle through your forearms and grip.
The hands are your primary contact points with the paddle, with your grip strength being the cherry on top of the paddling motion. Everything else you do will depend on you having a proper grip on the paddle.
Your forearm muscles are engaged continuously in handling and maneuvering the paddle – including rotating, flexing, and extending – regardless of the paddling intensity.
Initial kayaking sessions make for a real endurance challenge, often accompanied by arm or upper body fatigue. It gets easier with time, though.
A proper grip is vital, but if you’re paddling at a casual pace, relax your grip. Otherwise, you’re signing up for wrist injuries
Kayaking Works Your Chest Muscles
One arm extends the paddle forward, while the other counteracts it by drawing the opposite end of the paddle inward. Rinse and repeat, and you have the paddling motion that propels your kayak.
It may not be as evident, but each kayak stroke puts significant pressure on your chest muscles.
Have you ever done single-arm dumbbell bench presses?
Paddling works the same muscles, but simultaneously and in the opposite fashion:
Pectorals – the group of muscles connecting the front of your chest to the bones in your shoulders and upper arms – make up a good portion of your torso’s top half.
You already have your back muscles working in unison with your arms and shoulders; your chest muscles are bound to be included in the action, too.
Core: Is Kayaking Good For Abs & Core Strength?
Beginners often assume that a paddler’s power comes from the arms. However, it’s the rotational force generated by your core muscles, via torso rotation, that drives the paddling motion.
Wait, what does your core have to do with kayaking?
Well, much more than you think.
The engagement of core muscles – primarily abdominals and obliques – is crucial, even for the most basic forward kayak stroke:
Rotation and counter-rotation of the upper body, maintaining balance, proper posture, and stabilizing both you and the kayak – it all starts in the core.
Your upper body seems to do most of the work in kayaking, but you utilize your abs in more than one way throughout the entire paddling motion, start to finish.
So, next time you are in the gym take a few minutes of time off your cardio workout, or skip that extra shoulder strength workout, and try and few core strength exercises – watch how it boasts your power out on the water
The Lower Body Dilemma: What About The Legs & Glutes?
It can’t compete with full-on leg-focused activities, such as cycling or running – but yes, paddling works out your lower body.
I’ve seen that look of utter confusion in beginners many times:
“Why do my legs hurt after paddling? Isn’t this supposed to be an upper-body workout?”
Well, your legs work to stabilize the rest of your body.
A good kayak stroke starts with your legs lodged firmly on the foot braces. And as your paddling technique improves, you’ll discover other ways to use your legs in kayaking, such as turning, rolling, and bracing.
Also, why are the glutes the most underrated muscle group in kayaking?
Although widely overlooked, gluteal muscles act as a point of contact between your core and the boat:
Your legs initiate the stroke, and your core strength and torso rotation sees it through, but your glutes – and hips – are the connection point between the two. Lets just say the leg muscles are the key of the ‘power transfer’ and the start of ‘torque power’ chain.
Moreover, when it comes to safety, the all important ‘Hip snap’ plays a pivotal role in returning the boat to the upright position when performing a safety roll manoeuvre.
Don’t Forget That Your Heart Is A Muscle, Too
I already mentioned kayaking works your back muscles, abs, chest muscles, shoulders, forearms, biceps, triceps, legs, and glutes; that’s one pretty impressive list.
Don’t forget to add the most important muscle in the body – your heart – to it, though.
Whether you’re kayaking leisurely, navigating through whitewater rapids, or sprinting, kayaking has proved itself as highly beneficial for cardiovascular health.
Consistent motion – such as paddling – can bring your heart rate up fast, making kayaking one of the very few cardio-centric upper body exercises. You can burn approximately 400 to 500 calories per hour of kayaking.
Plus, if you have a lower-body injury or don’t enjoy excessive leg work, kayaking’s low-impact nature makes it possible to meet your daily recommended exercise goals.
Summing It Up: What Muscles Does Kayaking Work?
I’d say that the best answer to your question of what muscles does kayaking work would be – which muscle doesn’t kayak work? But being serious for a second, Kayaking is a sport that works every muscle in the entire body.
As simple as the motions may look, with a proper kayaking technique, it can be highly demanding on the body. Back muscles, shoulders, chest, arms, core, even legs, and glutes; you’re going to feel these paddling sessions in muscles that you didn’t even know existed. And your heart gets a pretty good kick out of it, too!
And did you know, an hour of kayaking can burn the same amount of calories as an hour of weight training (500 calories) – making kayaking a good workout and great gym alterative.
You might call it the lazy man’s exercise now – but wait until you grab a paddle and head out on the water. That’s when you learn how truly hardcore kayaking can be.
But with that in mine, don’t let poor mobility, bad knees or lack of fitness stop you from taking up kayaking, it’s a wonderfully inclusive sport that can be enjoyed at varying levels of ability – its also a great way to built fitness, get outside, explore the countryside, meet new friends and enjoy time with family (especially if you have children)

World Cup 2014: South Korea coach hopes he can persuade former Manchester United midfielder Park Ji-sung to return
The 32-year-old now plays for PSV
Wednesday 08 January 2014
South Korea football coach Hong Myong-bo said he's planning to lobby former Manchester United star Park Ji-sung to return to the national team to play in this year's World Cup, Korean media reported Wednesday.
The 32-year-old Park, now with PSV Eindhoven in the Dutch league, ended his international career after leading South Korea to the semifinals of the Asian Cup in January 2011. He has said repeatedly since then through representatives that he has no intention of returning to the international game.
Hong said, however, he wants to hear it directly from Park.
"I have only heard through people surrounding Park Ji-sung that will not play for the national team," Hong said.
Hong was Park's captain when South Korea reached the semifinals of the 2002 World Cup and was appointed to the national team coaching position in July. The former defender is searching for experience to compliment what is expected to be one of the youngest squads to play in the World Cup in June.
South Korea has been drawn to play Belgium, Russia and Algeria in Group H.
"We need some older players," Hong said, using the 2010 World Cup team led by Park as an example. "That team was a good combination of youth and experience."
Hong said last week that he was certain of 80 percent of his final 23 players, leaving Korean media to speculate as to who is in contention for the available five or six spots.
The team heads to Brazil later this month for an eight-day training camp before traveling to the United States for warm-up games against the U.S., Mexico and Costa Rica.
Park, who has played in the three World Cups, left Manchester United in the summer of 2012 after seven seasons to make an ill-fated move to Queens Park Rangers. After the team's relegation from the English Premier League, Park was loaned to PSV Eindhoven, the team he joined in 2003.

Summer's just around the Corner (#3)
The 3rd picture was taken in Brienz at lake Brienz. Thanks to my Flickr buddy Stefan Huggenberger for joining me.
May this summer come early...enjoy!
Lake Brienz (German: Brienzersee) is a lake just north of the Alps, in the Canton of Berne in Switzerland. The lake took its name from the village Brienz on its northern shore. Interlaken and the villages Matten and Unterseen lie to the south west of the lake. The shores are steep, and there is almost no shallow water in the entire lake.
Lake Brienz is the first lake in which river Aar (German: Aare) expands. When it leaves Lake Brienz, it soon joins Lake Thun.
The lake lies in a deep hollow between the village of Brienz on the east and, on the west, Bönigen, close to Interlaken. Its length is about 14 kilometers, its width 2.8 kilometers, and its maximum depth 260 meters, while its area is 29.8 square kilometers, and the surface is 564 metres (1,850 ft) above the sea-level. On the south shore are the Giessbach Falls and the hamlet of Iseltwald. On the north shore are a few small villages.
The character of the lake is different to its neighbour, that of Thun. Its chief affluent is the Lütschine (flowing from the valleys of Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen).
The lake is poor in nutritients, and consequently fishing is not very important. Nevertheless, in 2001 10,000 kg fish were caught. There have been passenger ships on the lake since 1839. The ships are operated by BLS Lötschbergbahn, the local railway company. There are five passenger ships on the lake.
