Many of us are aware that female performance can be affected at different times of the monthly cycle.

As a World Class Olympic athlete herself, with a very impressive marathon PB of 2.22.25, Jessica shares abit about her own experience and gives us an insight into the research her and her team are working on, which will inevitably increase the knowledge and education that’s available to female athletes and coaches alike.

There is an art to successful and sustainable coaching.
Now whether you’re self coached, training from a downloaded template or within a club, it’s vital that as athletes we don’t just follow a program blindly.
How many times have you completed a training program where you haven’t had to change a single thing? Chances are you’ve had to miss sessions, the intensity has been too much or you’ve had a huge week at work and you just need to back off for a few days.
Accepting this rather than ploughing on regardless doesn’t show weakness or failure, it shows a great level of common sense. We are all individual, life goes up and down and our training needs to fit in accordingly, not the other way round.
Kriss shares how the team at SFE go about managing training load with their clients. From getting to know the full picture, why assumption is so dangerous and the importance of constant reflection.
Whatever your current training situation, there are some great takeaways from todays episode.

Our feet are one of our most important parts of "real estate".
We expect so much from them, but rarely do we train and prepare them for the distances, terrains and intenities we have planned.
We can get carried away with building stronger glutes, quads and hamstrings. But if we neglact the very thing that connects us with the ground, is this work wasted?
It’s time to take it back to basics, shoes and socks off - let’s give our feet the thought and attention they deserve.

A seemingly obvious concept, yet one that isn't discussed enough when rehabilitating an injury. As children we had ’spring’ like qualities in our lower bodies - being able to run, jump and land without thought.
