All proceeds go towards TARGETRAINING's two man team doing the Pan Mass Challenge ride in August. You can visit www.pmc.org for event details. This is a major cancer research fund raiser and one of the largest such events via cycling in the world. Spots can be reserved for a donation of $150.

A freelance writer and photojournalist, Jordan Ross has been published in Wine Spectator, Wines & Vines, Global Vintage Quarterly and Practical Winery & Vineyard. Jordan has published articles on topics such as oak barrels, fining & filtration, wild yeast, the relationship between vineyard yield and wine quality, cork, and others. He is also a TARGETRAINING client who has improved considerably as a cyclist. Jordan's wine tastings are a delight for the senses as well as a joyful way to recover/get ready for your next training session.

Speed Sessions: Terrific Tuesdays at TARGETRAINING

Two trips for Tuesday. One to Staples, the Westport High School Track, which is used for speed sessions for TARGETRAINING's running/triathlon. And the other to Sherwood Island, the informal speed track for TARGETRAINING's cycling/triathlon program.

If you read the most recent Men's Health, or Bicycling, or any other general health and fitness periodical, you will see cited the importance of intensity. Intensity gets you lean. Intensity gets you fit. Intensity gets you fast.

Be warned, intensity done incorrectly has dire consequences. Supervised sessions are highly recommended. Doing intensity on your own is similar to cutting your own hair with a razor.
(A) Better to let an expert cut your hair (B) Better to not use a razor.

Eneas for cycling and Tyler/Dom for running are our respective experts. And the results show over time. It's awesome to see a tired yet exuberant group of clients head back to TARGETRAINING (or their homes or offices) after a speed session. They just got a little bit faster and leaner (we know they are going to eat properly and rest properly to be ready for our next session). Whether it is Dr. Rob or Megan or Kim or Andy...everyone has a grimace that quickly becomes a smile...and on to the next one.

Hope to see you out there with us on a Terrific Tuesday coming soon. You are invited!
