PRESEASON WEEK ONE – GENERAL
PREPARATORY
The aim of this week's training plan is to
build further upon last week’s transition training, but with an increase in
training intensity, duration and ultimately volume.
Again, this is to be achieved through Low / Medium Intensity,
predominantly non-weight bearing, exercise.
Due to the early stage of the plan, weekly training frequency remains at
3 aerobic sessions.
