G’day everyone and a big hello from Sunny Avoca!
I’m up here with the boys at a unique three day training camp where we are putting the boys through their paces on the training field but more importantly trying to help the boys bond together and make the best lifestyle decisions.
It’s no Holiday Inn up here, the boys are staying in really basic self serviced apartments but that is exactly what we want.
The boys have had to take responsibility for themselves over the past couple of days.
We have split them up in to groups of five and given them a limited budget which they have to live off for the 3 days.
They have to cook every meal for themselves for the entire three days and the boys seem to be doing it very well.
Organic is the buzz word with the boys at the moment and they are all digging in to the organic stuff like it is going out of fashion.
The days have been very long and require the boys to be well organised as there is little time to prepare food between sessions.
The schedule has been a little something like this.
Wake up, cook your breakfast, strap yourself, drive to training, race back to the apartment and cook your group lunch, head straight to your weights session, then head straight to the physios for recovery/treatment then back to cook your dinner before video analysis of training and games at night.
As you can see no mucking around here!
At this stage it is all about preparation, focusing on the small things and
hammering out our expectations for the year.
The boys are responding really well and jumping out of their skin with excitement so the real challenge is to keep the boys calm and remind them the season is still a few months away.
I’ll fill you in how the camp finished tomorrow.
Cheers,
Fitzy
