As you can see, science takes up most of our time on the R/V
New Horizon. However, many scientists and crew members enjoy exercising during
their time away from pteropods, CTDs, and ship driving. I’ve put together a fool-proof guide to
exercising on our ship!
DO workout
in a group! There are different workout times to accommodate your workout
preference and watch schedule! Mornings: Wisdom and weights with Nancy.
1245-1345: Hour of Pain with wrestler/boxer/MMA Willie and Captain. 1415: Kickin’ it with Kelly. 1600: Engine room trouble.

DO hold on
for dear life! The New Horizon likes to rock
and roll, uh, literally and figuratively! Use the rock to your advantage and exercise your stability muscles. Challenge
yourself with the roll, but be
careful not to fall overboard!

Willie also on the pull-up bar. Which way is up?! |
DO use the
stepper for a workout challenge! Not only will you have to survive the heat and
fumes of the deep dark engine room, you’ll be sweating bolts, not bullets, down
there!!

DO NOT use the stepper without consulting the salty New Horizon natives. They’ll help you learn the ropes, like leaning forward on the swells, so the stepper doesn’t topple over!
DO NOT try
balancing on a medicine ball for a Women’s Health magazine “Fresh Flat Belly”
workout when there are 8 foot swells! I did, and I ended up skidding across the
0-2 level!
DO NOT hold
back!! There is nothing embarrassing about lettin go and gettin down wit
yo bad self! Dancing is a great way to exercise on a ship,
especially when you have limited room and have a hankerin to get your groove
on!! When the ship gets arollin, everyone step dances anyway!
Above all, DO
have fun! This extraordinary group of sailors and scientists all foster a
positive working and working out environment.

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again.
