Feeling like you’ve lost some condition after the holiday break?

After a few days off it’s easy to “think” you’ve lost some condition however what you’re feeling can be mostly psychological due to some of these factors:

1. Full tank – after a few rest days that follow on from a heavy training block the body (in particular your muscle glycogen) refuels to levels that can make you ‘feel’ sluggish.

2. For any athlete, resting and learning to rest or take rest is a skill. Old molds of training make us think that more training is better. It’s simply not the case. Training smarter with a less is more approach will reap greater returns in the long run. “Better is better”

3. It is easy, especially within the CrossFit interweb world, to observe other athletes training and results. Note that the female 2009 CF Games are up for viewing on the journal at the moment. It is perfectly normal to panic a little at the mere sight or excitement surrounding such an event.

My recommendation is to just focus on what you need to do. Don’t be concerned with others. Your training is periodised to peak you on the 30th Jan, 20th Feb and 8th May.  Cycling training around peak performance is essential to CrossFitters competing or doing it for just fitness and health.  So feeling like you’ve lost some condition, feeling slack or under trained at the moment is what i’m hoping for. It will serve as a mental and physical break before the body and the mind cop a pounding over the next 6 months. No athlete can sustain peak intensity in training for extended periods of time before sub par performance..

Coaching notes:
For those of you planning to compete this year please refrain from doing extra training or training sessions at the moment.  The current phase of training we’re in is about general physical preparedness for the epic 6months ahead.  Go too hard now and you won’t be firing on all cylinders when you need to be.  So be patient, focus extra energies on goal setting, nutrition and technique.
If you have any training questions call me on 0402458871 anytime

Where are you taking yourself in 2010?

It is said that failing to plan is planning to fail.  It is also said that all good laid plans can come undone! But you have to be an optimist otherwise what’s the point. What plans did you have for 2009?  Did you get what you wanted out of it?  If not what did you learn and how can you put those experiences into a plan for 2010?

Our programming plan is done 6months in advance.  I know exactly what WODs we will be doing and why in 2, 3, and 12 weeks time.  Why fumble around in the dark without a plan, a road map or direction in where you’re taking yourself?  Take some time over the coming few weeks to plan your improvements in life, CrossFit, travel and relationships. Look at what you need to do on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. Don’t ever discount reflection, especially looking into yourself. Are there any experiences that keep showing their ugly head that you need to address?  Don’t avoid them otherwise you might not end up in the right place.

Love to hear your plans and areas you need to address for 2010.

Eat right, train smart, rest, rinse and repeat.
