Sports massage lessens DOMS after training or racing and improves performance.

Hi all, I have a few places left on my one day leg massage course, for this Saturday (27th Feb), 9am-1pm.

You will learn basic leg anatomy, how to do a full leg massage and perform stretches.

You will be given handouts, a bottle of massage oil and refreshments will be supplied.

The session will be 4hrs long and at worst, you will get a leg massage, a coffee and learn a little anatomy.

I have 5 couches, so I can put the session for no more than 10 people. As you will need someone to work on, I'd like people to book on in pairs.

I'm looking at running this on a Saturday morning or afternoon either 20/02/16 or 27/02/16.

The price is £20 per person (£40 per pair).

If you're interested or require further information, either contact me on here or text me on 07840 496 426

***Tip of the Day***

Importance or Recovery

When you train, you breakdown and damage muscles. It is in the recovery from training when the gains happen.

Rest: ensuring the body has enough time to recover from the training stimuli. Plan in rest days and easier sessions to achieve this.
The triathletes and runners that I work with, are scheduled to have at least one day off and two easy days a week and one whole easy week a month.

Nutrition: making sure that you feed the body with protein and carbohydrates immediately after training. It is said that there is a very important 20minute window after training, which is the optimum zone for recovery eating.

Massage and contrast bathing: massage is a great way to help flush the muscles. Pushing out the old used blood and waste products and increasing the circulation of new blood, which carries oxygen and nutrients needed for repair.
Contrast bathing can achieve a similar effect. Half an hour of going back and forth between heat and cold (5mins if each). This can done in many ways, but one is by using ice packs and hot water bottles

Sleep: the majority of out recovery is done during sleep. A lot of top athletes are encouraged to take a nap during the day to increase this.

A lot of the people I work with are able to work really hard in training, but feel uncomfortable with the easier days.
Train smarter, not necessarily harder

Mixing it Up

Whether you are training for your first marathon or losing weight, it is important to change and vary your training.

The body adapts very quickly to training stimuli. If you continue to train in the same way, your progression will be limited.

Think of the F**T principle:
Frequency: how many times a week you train

Intensity: how hard you train

Time: the time you train for

Type: the type of training

By changing these around regularly, will increase adaptations and give you more improvements
