Aspiring/Elite Athlete Program Update

This week our athletes headed out to Bai Med for Term 2 Testing. The emphasis on this workshop was around managing workload physically and mentally as an athlete. Students commenced the day with their testing protocols and it was great to see many of them achieving progress, including Hayley who achieved a 4 minute plank (a 3 minute PB). Students also were pushed to their cardiovascular limits with the Yo-Yo test, where many students excelled in this area.

Last week students also had the opportunity to meet with Nutritionist Nicola Jaffrey from Embody Nutrition. This workshop gave students practical ideas of what their food should look like and ways to balance this with their training as well as strategies of where to start on improving their diet. It was great to see the students ask so many questions and get the most out of this workshop.

SJ Fit Club

Last week we had 16 students attend SJ Fit Club. It was so great to see so many involved and giving it their best. Fit club will be back on next Thursday and runs from 7:45am in the gym.
