If you have had an inside dominated programme all winter, then that is totally understandable given the cold, wet and icy weather we have had this year.
Doing the same kind of training though all year round is a recipe for getting stale, getting medicore results, and not reaching your potential.
I love to mix all of my training up, and give a nice split between inside and outside training, both of these have their big advantages.
The inside training means you can always get a session in, no matter what the weather in a safe, usually warmer environment.
There should be a range of options available inside too, at the gym in burry port we have lots of different options, and we are exactly the opposite of the traditional gym where you either to cardio on a treadmill or bike, then maybe a little bit of weights.
Of course, we love to do weights still, and we love traditional cardio too. Now though, we love to mix it all up, throw in some rope work, medicine ball work, bosu ball exercise, a range of aggressive and rehab work on roller’s and other balance related exercises.
Then the gym moves outside, especially this time of year with tyres, sledges, and a whole range of speed and agility work with some sandbags thrown in too.
This time of year is absolutely perfect to start if you haven’t yet, to get the fresh air into your lungs again, to appreciate what it feels like training outdoors and the intoxicating feeling that can bring.
By changing this around, you will freshen everything up, be working with the latest science of training, and getting incredible and never seen before results for your body.
March 1st should signal the start of a new challenging but rewarding period in your physical development.
