Hello again folks,
So Im going to take off for a couple of weeks to see the in-laws. And when Im back, im going to get a clicker on the bow and start working on it. I know and am mentally prepared to take a beating at first until I get better with the clicker. Soon after it'll be time for indoors.
My question is this. Archery is three days a week at the club. I try to make it to two at least most weeks. I dont get practice at home. But coming outdoors to the 2011 spring/summer season, I want to plan ahead.
a) I want to concentrate on physical fitness - are there any specific muscle groups that I should be looking at. so far for my list I have triceps, shoulders, upper back and thighs. Are there any specific exercises that is recommended
b) Ideas on how one can "train more" with the limited time available at the club. Quite often we hear "you need to shoot more arrows". Yeah! we know that. but time is limited. Im not spending 4 hours a day at the target (trust me id love nothing better). I spend 1 or 1 and a half hours twice a week. So can you recommend training drills specifically for putting yourself under pressure to score more? This way I cna have a training day and a shooting day...
c) Move from 30lbs limbs to 34lbs limbs for 2011
Cheers in advance. If Im not responding often enough, Im sunning myself by the in-laws pool in the south-west of France!
