So, what’s the best way to get fit for skating? How do we get strong for skating? What’s the best way to improve our fitness so we can get through 3 back to back routines without any complaints? And ultimately, how do we become the best athletes we can be?

Confession time: I’m more than a little obsessed with having hot oats in the morning.

I’ve stopped skating now but I went to the gym today and trained back and chest. Was pretty chill. This of you wondering, I went to the YMCA for $5 for the whole week so pretty happy with that!

Hey Skaters!
Finally got around to uploading part 2 of Kate’s write up! Aside from skating, Kate has been a competitive runner so she knows a thing or two about proper nutrition before and after competitions. I’m gonna be starting a challenge to get everyone in shape for nationals so look out for that in the next few days! Macarena

There’s 2 weeks left until Oceanias. There’s lots going on in everyone’s lives with work, uni or school not to mention trainings! Stress is at an all time high right now and some of you may feel like you’re running out of time! If this sounds like you, what should you be doing? Or more importantly, what shouldn’t you be doing?
