Newsletter 3 year 11 - Autumn & Winter edition
Autumn has arrived, which means another new sports season has also started at Taus Gym. For the upcoming season, we are once again ready to stay fit and safe together during the autumn and winter months! In this newsletter, you will find information about the winter outdoor training sessions, the end-of-year drinks, the pre-tests and exams, the member outing shooting, the first aid course, Meet The Marines and the holiday schedule.
Winter outdoor training courses
To make the training sessions fit in well with this sports season, we are running no less than four winter outdoor training sessions. The week from 12 to 15 December is all about training in the dark. This applies to the adult, youth and children's Krav Maga classes. For this, you should bring everyday clothing and footwear in order to train as realistically as possible. We recommend wearing several layers, so you can easily take something on or off. In addition, bring your normal sports gear, as we will train inside if the weather is bad.
The gathering location is the standard training venue. We hope to see everyone at these special training sessions!
End-of-year drinks
This year, we will once again organise the end-of-year drinks party, so that we can all end this sports year on a good note. We will arrange the snacks and drinks and we hope that you will come and provide the fun!
The drink will take place on 10 December, at 19.00h at our location in Tilburg. The address is Professor Romeinstraat 11a. All members aged 16 and over are welcome to come and celebrate the end of the year with us. The contribution for the drink is 15. You can register via the contact form. Be sure to register before 19 November.
We hope to see everyone on 10 December!

Meet The Marines is an event where participants have to work hard together for 24 hours to achieve physically and mentally challenging missions. These missions are led by the elite of the Dutch armed forces. During the missions, you will discover where your limits are and how to deal with them. A full team of our members is already going.

Intestinal complaints around exercise
Sufficient exercise is important for good bowel function. It stimulates circulation and the squeeze-push movement of your bowels. It combats constipation and has a protective effect against colon cancer.
Still, you may experience gastrointestinal symptoms around intense exercise. Think heartburn, diarrhoea, bloating, flatulence, nausea or abdominal cramps. This can be a problem especially with prolonged exercise. Causes may include mechanical shock movements during exercise, temporarily reduced blood flow, hormonal factors and diet.
Do you ever suffer from gastrointestinal discomfort during and after exercise. In that case, try the following tips:
- Have a large meal 2-3 hours before exercising. Are you still hungry just before exercising? Have a small snack, such as some fruit, a cracker or a sandwich.
- Don't have a meal high in fats, proteins and dietary fibre before exercise. These nutrients need more time to digest.
- Do not have carbonated drinks before exercise.
- If gastrointestinal symptoms occur regularly: avoid gas-forming foods such as onions, beans and cabbage.
- Do not take caffeine before exercise.
Do you suffer from gastrointestinal complaints more often and want to change this? Then make an appointment at Gewoon Diëtetiek. Together, we will look for the cause of these complaints and find a suitable solution. From the basic insurance, you are entitled to 3 hours of nutritional guidance by a dietician. Please note that a deductible applies. Do you have supplementary insurance? Then you are often entitled to extra hours.
