Week 45

This week the junior plan will focus on sharpening and tapering for march racing events like Junior Nationals. Even if you do not have a championship event scheduled in March, using sharpening and tapering strategies during some weeks will help take your high-end fitness to the next level and help your body maintain a productive macro training cycle. Check out Sharpening 101 for information on why we plan march interval sessions the way we do. We post several technique videos this week to help guide your sessions including a lateral bound skate progression and tips for changing classic tracks.
