Your Committee has been beavering away in the background looking for ways to keep things ticking over for our members during these most strange and unprecedented times.
We are ever mindful of the government guidelines surrounding exercise and the need for continued social/physical distancing. As such please NOBODY be arranging meet ups to train in groups. The other thing that we are mindful of and should stress is that now is not the time to be making huge increases in the volume or intensity of our training. Pushing training hard puts stresses on the body and can put a dent in our immune systems while the body recovers from those stresses. At this point in time we all need our immune systems to be working at full strength.
Training at the moment should be moderate intensity at the most and the focus must be shifted from performance improvements to training to maintain good health; both mental and physical.
With all of the above in mind our Lockdown programme contains a mix of more social things as well as training things.
