get fit and mean it logo-newHow is the track work going? Soreness is often a result of a track session. This is due to the surface and the speed work.

I love a good track work out. They really hurt but you always know where you stand fitness wise and where you should be at for a specific time of the year.

It is even better if you can get a few training partners of similar level together so you can push each other and share the pain.

You always find another gear when you have someone to chase, to drop or to keep up with. Give it a try!

Work outs. Always do at least 10min warm up. Walk if you like. Train every second days but you can do Pilates, yoga & stretching or other sports easy on days off.

Remember to take glutamine to aid your muscle recovery and magnesium to stop cramping . . . these supplements work like a charm 🙂
