Winter Training Tips

Hi Muses!

I am sharing these great training tips from PowerBar Team Elite athlete and American long distance Josh Cox. Josh Cox is a 4-time Olympic Trials Qualifier, 3-time National Team Member and the American Record Holder in the 50k. In 2009 and 2011 his 50k were the fastest in the world.

Additionally, I have a complementary video and some brief tips about nutrition after your workout. Remember these four things when deciding what to eat:

1. Your goals and the type of workout you do matters. If you want to lose weight vs gaining muscle vs maintaining. Strength vs endurance vs volume training vs cardio.
2. The building blocks of muscles are protein.
3. Carbs are the main source of fuel/energy.
4. Check the nutritional content, beware of high sugar!

Below are the tips. I like and agree with these. Consider these tips when you go outdoors for a workout!
