Mats Troeng's training
Here is a quick translation from the interview with Mats Troeng I mentioned a couple of days ago. My apologies for a bit rough translation.
What does a typical training week look like for Mats Troeng in December 2004?
Because the first half of December is when I'm finishing up my studies, I haven't had a detailed training plan. I'm doing what I can, and that can mean 10-12 hours of physical training a week with some running, skiing, overall strength and spinning. Most of it is low intensity but I also do a couple of faster sessions. I also do a bit of mental training. Some times there is too much focus on the amount of physical training. How often do you hear anyone talk about how much mental or orienteering technique training they are doing? That is where most of us have the most to learn.
