When I can, I like to review and write articles to put my ideas onto paper. These are just a few reviews that I have written. I write a weekly blurb each week during the Peak Endurance Training group meetings to help those who are training from distance.

In 2004 Tracey Pope, Whistler Physiotherapy and I designed a handout that we felt were the most effective stretches for endurance athletes. We were finding that many of our athletes suffered ITB syndrome, general low back pain, and other ailments that were often related to shortened muscle groups from repetitive moments. We felt that the stretching handouts currently on the market were outdated, and that we needed to create an up to date handout to give our clients.

We created the “Best Ever Run"; "Best Ever Cycle" & "Best Ever Triathlon” stretching sheets. They have been used widely in the corridor for endurance athletes, winter sports athletes and in general fitness. We found that they were being photocopied and distributed even though they were copyrighted and did not photocopy well.

I decided to mass produce a large quantity of stretching sheets & posters at a reasonable price for sale. And now we have “Best Ever Stretches”, the best of all three original handouts.

We also sell "Best Ever Stretches" in poster format!

We sell by PayPal and cheque (from Canadian banks). Email info@valburke.com to pay by cheque
