Training Update.


The last few weeks have been good! I have been spending 4 to 5 hours a day in the gym working on my fitness. Managed to fit some nice rides in on the bike aswell, the terrain is great here! In the gym we have mainly been focusing on lighter weights building muscle slowly and basic cardio. This will change next month, the reps will come down and the weight will go up.

All in all I feel that this has been a great first month of my summer training block. My body feels good and I am ready to step it up again in June! Will keep you updated, cheers Ben.

May Update.


























The last couple of weeks have been great! I have had some good training and have made some early progress all round. My Strength and Condition program has really kicked off down at Sport Med Tirol with my trainer Christoph. This year we are stepping it up to a whole new level again and he has brought in some new great, but tough training methods!

Over the past two weeks I have had 6 days ski training up on the Hintertux glacier with Wolfi. The snow conditions and weather have been awsome! I have even been having full courses set just for me alone.

I have been testing Salomon 2012 skis and boots. I had a great feeling for their eqipment and therefore have decided to Change to Salomon as my ski and boot supplier. I am looking forward to developing a long term relationship with them.

For the next two weeks I will be focusing on Gym work with Christoph. Will keep you updated, Cheers Ben
