This week I'm re-visiting a topic shared back in November 2021. In recent weeks I've been talking a lot about the benefits of mobility and strength and in this episode, I outline why mobility and strength play such a key role in human and athletic performance. I also have a few tips on how you can incorporate both into what probably feels like an already packed schedule.
Specific topics covered include:
How to avoid being an active couch potato
The importance of daily movement practice once you hit 40 and beyond
Simple options for busy people (TIP: it’s not that hard to find time)
How improved mobility can lead to faster times in the pool
Strength training to build resilience and better consistency with your swim, bike, and run training
Key benefits of a year-round strength programme
How to build strength in less than 60 minutes each week
