The last few weeks we have been practicing super hard. It's nice to be home a few weeks in a row and fully focus on training. We started with heavy practice, which means hard and long multi sessions, lot of sets with heavy weights in the gym and the bootcamps we did were one of the most intents workouts I have ever had.

To get trough all the hard practice you have to do whatever you can to take care of your body. Eat, sleep, rest, stretch and frequent massages. Jelle and I also tried to speed up recovery by going in an ice bath. A 6 to 10 degrees Celsius bath for 10 minutes. This isn't pleasant, quite painful actually.
