Hi all,
I am a new member, just joined today! Just wondering if there is anyone involved in canoeing (sprint or marathon) or Canoe Polo around?
I am training for the World Canoe Polo Championships in Amsterdam, August 2006, and just curious to hear what other people do in training...
I have a history in river and flatw*ter marathon paddling, and dabbled in sprinting when I made the team for the World University Sprint Championships in Bari, Italy, in 2002. I also represented South Africa at the World Rafting Championships in the Czech Republic in 2003. So, lots of water-sports experience, and all sorts of different coaching & training techniques, which I am now trying to adapt to Canoe Polo.
I have a current training programme I have put together with some support, but always interested to find new ways of improving it! Particularly interested in comments about lactic/lactate tolerance training.
If anyone's interested I can give a run-down on what Canoe Polo is (I know a lot of people have never heard of it :roll: ).
Thanks
Laurel
