Following on from part one last week I am going to introduce to you some smaller but equally common failings in the gym.If you are a regular gym member have a look to see if you are guilty of these common errors.

The gym is the place where you can attain every fitness goal you desire. It certainly is not the only way to achieve the benefits of exercise but is certainly the perfect place to do it.If you are a regular gym member have a look to see if you are guilty of these common errors.

World Cup 2010 has already seen two of the worst goalkeeping errors imaginable - first Robert Green (England) versus the USA, then Chaouchi of Algeria, as the Africans lost 1-0 to Slovenia. So, in the interests of, well, voyeurism, I thought I'd see how they compared to past world cup goalkeeping blunders.

Rayo Vallecano are finally in a position to dream of La Liga survival.

Paco Jémez, though, had other ideas. Not because Rayo's coach was going to back down on his principles - "any club that signs me knows what it's getting," he insisted - but because he didn't have any intention of dying at all. Even when Rayo were a disaster, Jémez had his defenders. Off the pitch, that is. Last season, only two teams in Europe had the ball more than Rayo did: Barcelona and Bayern Munich. Early this season, when Rayo played Barcelona, they had more possession than them, the first team to manage it in 316 games. They threw men into attack, they were fun to watch, and parading the touchline in a dizzying array of multicoloured elbow patches and waistcoats, pink shirts and purple ties, Jémez urged them forward, always. In a country that values the aesthetic, or in which some do, he was eulogised for the way his teams played de tú a tú: as equals. Rayo didn't simply defend - sometimes they didn't defend at all - but instead they went for it. And, mostly, they lost. Rayo took the ball off Barcelona and Jémez declared himself "very proud". But they were beaten 4-0. They went to the Camp Nou where they were praised by Barcelona's
