Episode 14 - Sports Training in Lockdown

The physical and mental benefits of regular exercise are wide ranging and profound. What are the issues though arising from lockdown? How do we stay healthy, focused and connected? How can we resume training safely, increase our body’s loading and avoid common injuries; and where can we seek help when it’s needed.
