Hi everyone, we hope that you had a great Easter and that you didn't have too much chocolate! Sorry there has been a small delay on the weekly fitness programmes, both Sophie and I have been busy helping out with lambing. The strength and running fitness plans will have 'week 4' added today/ tomorrow. I have just added a beginner level footwork video which will be great for all members of the club. It focuses on many of the core footwork elements and it will be good to make sure that all the basics are in place before going on to the harder levels. I will be uploading the intermediate workout next week and the advanced level the following week. |
The beginner course you should repeat 4x throughout the week with a rest day in between e.g. Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. If you want to check your technique please ask a family member to watch, or video yourself and review it afterwards. If you want a coach to analyse it then please drop us a message about our coaches eye programme as we can then watch, review and annotate your videos so that you have a better idea on how to improve.
The three footwork videos I am uploading are filmed by another coach, however if you have any questions about certain exercises please do not hesitate to ask us. I have watched the videos and for doing exercises at home during the lock down then these are perfectly good videos to follow! If there are any minor/major technical floors in the video we will add a comment in 'Notes' which is displayed under the video. The footwork exercises can be found in the fitness programmes section of the website!

Club Exercises
Prone Series (3 Sets/ Daily) | Hip Series 1 (3 Sets Daily) |
Above are two great exercises for flexibility, core stability, balance and co-ordination. Both of these videos contain exercises which you could incorporate into your warm up routines for training, gym sessions and competitions. If you have had a go at the club exercises, please post a comment saying that you have completed them and give yourself a rating out of 10 for each exercise. For example, Completed. Prone Series 8/10, Hip Series 1 8/10. It would be good to see who is having a go and also to collect some data on what our club members find easy/hard. The feedback will also help me structure the posts to our club members needs.
I look forward to seeing your comments on the exercises over the next couple of days!
