Walkers neophytes

For the neophytes, the trainings are not indicated with average schedules.

It is simply enough for the moment to be put in physical and technical phase with walk, so no objective of time.

THE MOST IMPORTANT IN THE FIRST TIME IS TO IMPREGNATE YOUR GESTURE, TECHNIQUE, AND PHYSICAL ASPECT OF WALK.

Consult the rules and training of technique

You will be able, except those where the concept speed is included, to support a conversation while carrying out your training.

If you start to be haletant, slow down.

Perhaps will have you (surely you will have) what one vulgarly calls a side point.

There too, slow down and oxygenate yourself.

Breathe deeply (inspire) by the mouth, you will have an air flow more important than while inspiring by the nose.

And expire by the mouth. Do not hesitate to blow deeply from time to time, until you don’t air any more.

And return the belly like emptying it. You will have to assimilate a breathing which corresponds to you.

What I did,as many others do, I practised two inspirations on each one of my steps, and two expirations, there on each one of my steps as well.

Take some drink with you to hydrate yourself.

A standard can cyclist in a bag.

We leave you the choice to be refreshed, but water is the best we can

During your long exits, your fingers can inflate at a certain time (as they will do it on the competitions), be not afraid to make them live.

Stir them up , so that the blood will be irrigated.

Do the the same way with your toes.

And move also your head in circular movements, as well as for the shoulders and the wrists.

From the right to the left, then from the left to the right, 3 to 4 times each one.

They also need to make other movements.

We will find all these gestures during competitions.

For the your clothing during your trainings, consult the clothing card.

For the preparation during your trainings consult the card-indexes General Physical Préparation

for the stretchings, card-indexes Stretching.

When you carry out possibly morning trainings, you will react differently than for the training at the end of the day.

It is necessary to start the body, the muscles, the tendons.

That takes a certain time.

I think that 30 minutes are sufficient, but that can last up to 45 minutes.

So do not be hard with your body, be patient.

If at the end of a certain time of training, you sleep badly the night, and that in the morning it is difficult to wake up, not well in your shoes, have a break.

Your body needs to rest.

It is surely necessary to be involved, but not to abuse is better.

Write in a notebook of training your meetings (mileage, duration, conditions weather, nature of the ground, feelings), to find your work with the time.

A last word.

DO NOT FORGET THAT the COMPETITION BEGINS AT THE FIRST MOMENTS OF YOUR TRAININGS.

You are neophyte, then here a plan of drive on 3 or 4 meetings per week.

For you neophytes, here a plan of drive on 5 meetings per weeks.

If you have questions about this subject, or another besides, return on our forum.

Good courage with all and all.
