Shape-Up for Curling



Whether you work on your flexibility with stretches, do cardio workouts, lift weights, (or perhaps increase your beer consumption) it is a good idea to start preparing yourself for the upcoming curling season. If not to improve performance (and outlast the opponents in the beer chugging contest) but to hopefully prevent injuries and lessen that telltale post first game muscle ache (or next day hangover).

The inspiration for this series of posts comes from the new book called "Fit to Curl" written by World and Olympic Champion curler John Morris. This book covers the whole sha-bang! From cardio, strength, flexibility, balance, nutrition (sorry guys beer not included!), and the mental aspect of the game as well.
