BASE

The training phase where you create a strong, err, base - to build on as your season progresses.

* Target your weaknesses
* Allocate more time and resources to strength work
* Mix in cross-training
* Reinforce strong nutritional habits
* Embrace the lack of pressure, and volume, which may come later in the year
* Views of K2 optional - more likely to be a load of sweaty people at your local gym

Happy training!

Chop chop!!! Great work by the WR3 swim group this morning. Plenty of swell at Penarth pier provided sighting practice galore, and a few mouthfuls of the Bristol channel. Always good to train in conditions that are worse than you likely to race in.

Kudos to those who raced last Sunday.....slightly different weather system to the 2022 heatwave! Different challenges.
