I recently put together a small 25 minute video training for some guys I’m working with on all things swimming.
This was one of the slides… our S&C should complement what we are trying to achieve in the water (long, strong & able to rotate). Let me know if these are a “go-to” in your gym routines!

WARNING ⚠️ Another boring post alert 😴
Some would say tracking your gym work like this is overkill. I would argue it is *essential*
There are certain rules of training that are non-negotiable.
My latest post in my private complimentary coaching group delves into these rules and I breakdown my method behind the madness of using data to support decision making.
This is my own personal data from the last 10 gym circuit sessions i’ve done.
If you’re interested to know why I track this and what it means… send me a DM or leave a comment below 👇

Adapting to training doesn’t need to be a guessing game. We can use ’s law to figure out the simple things that will give us 80% of the benefit. Work these key principles into your life and watch yourself break through barriers like never before 💪

Easy (recovery) day breakfast 🍳✅ - this meal is filled with lots of healthy micronutrients and protein to match... pin your food choices to the training day... today was easy - therefore prioritising carbs was not a requirement - use these days as an excuse to get “the good stuff in” 💪

Pinpoint precision 💪... 2 tests can give you a lot of information when it comes to training programming and performance... don’t overcook the omelette - find what works and focus down on building an efficient testing process for yourself... evaluate yourself every 1-2 months to keep yourself on point @ Doha

1 mile 🏊♂️ at lunch followed by this tasty altitude interval session on the bike after work... zero energy when starting this - but got it done. Turkey 70.3 prep begins!

Don’t believe the hype - Visceral adiposity (VAT) is a more relevant - stronger predictor of morbidity than body mass readings... SO why is exercise so good for us? Turns out that whilst a calorie deficit may potentially do a better job in “trimming” us down in the long run... that trimming does not necessarily affect VAT levels... exercise on the other hand was associated with a 6.1% reduction in VAT over time! Conclusion? Despite larger effects of diet on body mass changes - exercise tends to have superior effects in reducing and targeting VAT 💪💪... get moving - lift weights - run fast... your body will thank you in the long run! @ Doha
