On each day the focus is slightly different: road run, road bike ride, trail run and MTB ride The variations throughout the week will prevent the same muscles getting fatigued.
Recovery after each session is the secret to making this programme work. Proper eating and hydration is also important so that your body can build muscle and replenish the nutrients used in the training.
I aim to get a yoga or Pilates class in once a week – it’s great for stretching out my muscles.
I get a weekly professional sport massages when in training as I battle with sore and tight muscles, and deep facial tissue massages are essential for my recovery.
This is a 7-day programme but if your body is sore and tired, it is vital that you listen to it!
It is important to increase the above distances as you get fitter throughout your programme. A good guide to avoid overtraining is to increase time/distance each week by no more than 10% a week.
Please note that this is not an extensive/detailed training program and only serves as a guideline
