Term 3 - Week 8

12/09/2013 18:04
Well what a massive week, physically and emotionally. Seems like a little bit of deja vu, with injuries and accidents and weather.
 
I want to encourage the team by saying that you are looking fantastic on the bikes with a great attitude to training and are doing all that I would expect a winning squad to be doing at this stage of the training cycle. We are in our peak stage and as a result have to be very careful not to push you over the edge. Remember to do the following things after our big days.
 
  • Day after (if a non training day) Get on the wind trainer and spin the legs for 30 to 40 mins - light gearing 90 to 100 rpm
  • Sleep well
  • Get good quality protein into your system soon after training
  • Drink plenty of water
  • Vitamin and mineral supplements can help support good physical balance
  • Believe you are a winning team
Remember to let me know if you can make the Sunday session. Peter has offered his services to come out in the school van and add some extra support to the team.
 
Next week is our last big training week and is our last opportunity to dial in the team TT riding. As Tuesday is out for Hannah and Victoria. We could do Wednesday, Thursday and Friday ( Teacher only day) We can talk about it.
 
GREAT EFFORT LADIES KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK - I love being your coach and are proud of you guys
