postheadericon Attention Costaleros

Personal TrainingWe take the time we are to give a few tips to those who by tradition, culture, conviction, passion … leave Costalero or carrier in one of the many guilds that will season of penance for the various cities of our country.

To start recall that once the bearers and / carriers were usually workers hired specifically for that purpose by the brotherhoods among dockers, railway workers and the union of port construction, weathered people in physical work and used to load and carry heavy loads. Over time this work was done by ordinary people and in recent years by brothers of the same fraternity.

The problem is that the vast majority of these people, not wanting to get into criticism, but awareness, just make physical effort or work similar to work they will perform this week in the best (not generalized) physical preparation limited to a “pachanguita weekly” Football or paddle (to name a few).

Each year increase the “halls of costaleros” dedicated to advise, assist, attend Easter these users, but this is only a measure of “urgency.” The preparation, knowing in many cases that come every year, should begin at least three months before the start of the trials, in order to prevent discomfort, injury, pain, and enjoy more of our passion, as I do not live longer than that suffer most, but one that most “feel.” In addition to many “penance” could be going to the gym at least three months.

On this page you could find many exercises to strengthen key parts in the espuerzo done, back, CORE, abs, legs …

But we must give special importance in these days:

* Stretch, at least, lumbar spine and legs, every break, because they load much on standing maintained that we add the weight held by the guild.
* Stand well the sack, in the case of Costalero, essential for preventing injuries in the “Morrill”

We must not forget either of penitents or Nazarenes, who in some cases be more than twelve hours standing on the street, carrying a candle, or cross, chains … depending on each city, which can also cause injury.

In these days of passion, feelings, culture, faith … do not forget to take care of, not to suffer more; we will be more “holy.”
