Masters Training 12/8 – 12/10

By on 6 December, 2015 in Masters Blog, Masters Training Schedule

Still waiting on that elusive snow! We will still be getting after it with some dryland this week. If you are hankering for some real ski action, check out the World Cup races from this weekend on Skiing Vinnie’s Youtube channel! The women’s relay race this morning was particularly exciting-

Tuesday 12/8: Warmup with body position and various balance/one-foot drills followed by distance running with poles on the Range loops. Racers include natural bounding intervals into run on hills.

Thursday 12/10: Warmup with dynamic plyometrics followed by strength circuit and SkiErg practice. Racers include SkiErg testing effort for 500m! Ouch!

Take note…tomorrow is the final day for MNC Toko orders. Make sure you grab some great tools and fast wax for the season ahead with our 30% discount!

Finally, thank you to the many MNC Masters who have filled out our Masters pre-season survey for this year. If you have not done so yet, check it out HERE.
