Top 5 areas of the body to train for racing💪🏼

If you missed our shiftupnow webinar this week, we went over driver fitness training, the importance of it and which areas to focus on the most! 

In order, these are the most important areas of the body drivers need to focus on: 

1. Neck
2. Core
3. Shoulders
4. Arms (biceps/triceps) 
5. Back (very underrated!)

Another simple guide on “what to train for racing” would be to pay attention to which parts of your body are sore after the race.
 
If it’s sore, then you probably aren’t training those muscles enough!! Ive even had sore glutes and calves from mashing the throttle/brakes so don’t count out leg day either 😆

In addition to training the muscles, it’s important to focus on form, breathing, stretching, and cognitive functions🧠. There are apps like Luminosity that you can download to help train your brain aka work out your cognitive functions!

If you have any questions about fitness or supplements feel free to reach out to me or  podiumperformancefitness as they are the experts!
