Training 8/31 - Conditioning/Quadraped

Staying away from that HUGE bull snake! Look closely...

Reminder that this week will marks our change to Conditioning/Quadraped portion of the year. We will still be doing OD BUT we will be adding poles, to help our bodies adjust to the added load of upper body work. If you don't have short poles, you want your lower arms parallel to the ground and not much more angled for these. They are SHORT and that's alright!

Reminder:  UW Nordic COVID-19 Training & Racing Plan  Check out the National Geographic about the risk for various activities! We can keep doing our sport to keep our brains, bodies, and emotions on the right path!

Coach Rachel is a microbiologist and she would LOVE to answer any questions/concerns you may have about COVID-19.

Note about this training below. The workouts we have on the schedule are not all team practice BUT if you want to be at your best for the ski season they are super important! Team workouts are in RED.

We will be working on transportation for those of you who might need rides. At this time we are unable to use Zima so if you do not have a car please let us know so we can start to work out a plan for getting you to the SUPER FUN practices!
