The ECC Elite.

Rest Day

With the Opens coming we are going to adjust our weekly split. Starting this week our schedule will be as follows.

2014 GAMES & REGIONAL ATHLETES 
You are going to the Regionals, so lets not get caught up in "leaderboarding" and comparing scores.  It doesn't matter at this stage.  Remember to focus on what you can control and let go of everything else. If your goal is to go to the Games just stay in the top 12 in your Region during the Open so you are in a top heat for the first event at Regionals.  Other than that I don't care if you win your region or come in 9th, 10th, 11th or 12th.  You have bigger fish to fry and we really start cooking in April and May.

MONDAY:  Training
TUESDAY: Training
WEDNESDAY: Training
THURSDAY: Rest/Recovery Day
FRIDAY:  OPEN + Training
SATURDAY: Training
SUNDAY: Rest Day


2014 OPEN ATHLETES 
This is it!!  The month of March is your season.  You need to switch gears mentally.  Professional athletes bust their ass in Preseason, so they can compete hard "In-Season"  Your season is only 5 weeks.  I am going to say this again...  between now and April there are only FIVE workouts that matter - Everything else is just to make sure you stay primed, peaked and ready to attack.  Do not do extra work because, "you don't want to loose gains" - or anything close to this.  You are done training.  It is now time to COMPETE.  If you have been following this program you are ready.  Be a racehorse and go get what's yours.  

MONDAY:  OPEN 
TUESDAY: Recovery/Training
WEDNESDAY: Training
THURSDAY: Rest/Recovery
FRIDAY:  OPEN
SATURDAY: Recovery 
SUNDAY: Recovery and/or Pregame Prep
