For a long time I used to train very hard with hard sessions every day. Whilst there was improvement there was a price to pay for constant hard work. I suffered with injuries at regular intervals and developed chronic lower back pain. Injuries obviously prevent training so I had to take time off then once whole again I battled to regain the fitness I had before the injury.
I now have a training program which is a lot easier on the body and I manage to stay on the track for a longer periods during the year. I also have a weekly massage, monthly ostepathic treatment and try and have a relaxing soak in a spa twice weekly to ward off the chances of future injury.
Hi I'm MD. A forty something triathlete who just thought you might be interested in my thoughts on training for the mature triathlete. I am no elite athlete, I am just a trier who still wants to improve as he gets older.
