Fortunately I haven’t had any major setbacks in my career.
|
When do you Train
|
It depends on the time of year and phase of training, but on average 10 times a week. |
What Type
|
A combination of water and land work. In the winter more of the training is in the gym doing weight training and on the roads running. In the summer the majority is in my kayak building speed, lactate tolerance and endurance.

Exercise Tips
|
Train hard but also train smart. Listen to your body, it is the best indicator of when to stop and when to go through that pain barrier.
|
Advice or Vice
|
One of my vices is that I hate losing! But I have learnt that along the journey to success you have to experience failure. Just make sure that you learn from it.
