THE WORKOUT PLAN
A complete workout plan that fits everyone doesn’t exist! Training is something really personal and depends on many factors such as: goals, fitness level, time available to train and lifestyle… But the most important factor in training is commitment!!
ARE YOU READY?
TRAINING
After 2 years of intensive running, listening to any advice and suggestions that came my way, following multiple training plans and looking on google for magical solutions to a become a better runner I decide to focus inwards and really looked at what was the best for me.
I had to hit the gym to see how strong I was, push the limits of my body and see what my level was. I created my own training plan to follow and I won my first 100 miles race in 24h52min34s.
MY CURRENT TRAINING
Today i’m still training and all the time trying to get better to accomplish new challenges.
My current training is 7 days a week:
6 days running
1 day strength - Cross training: bike, yoga, swimming…
The most important part is to have fun and enjoy what you are doing, it’s the key to motivation.
RECOVERY
Train hard, recover harder !
What I do :
Stretching: A small amount of stretching after each run is beneficial for recovery. I like to include some yoga classes to dedicate time to deep stretching.
What I use :
Foam roller: it’s the easiest and cheapest way to prep your body for recovery. 5-10 minutes after each run is part of my routine.
TENS machine: this is slightly more expensive but I find the results are great. There are a lot of different models on the market.
Massage gun: one of the best tools! It is easy to use and small enough to bring to events.. You don’t need a fancy one, mine cost just $30 and does the job well.
Electrolyte: I use BIX Hydration and love it! I really feel that it helps my body to recover and get ready for the next workout.
