Rose Bay Paddle Fitness – Basic Session Structure
- Arrive at 6:00AM to organize equipment ready for a 6:15AM start
- We aim to finish sessions by 7:15AM
- Mondays and Fridays: Threshold sessions – these consist of longer paddles with less stops/rests between efforts along the way
- Wednesdays: Heart Rate sessions – you will need footwear to run in (shoes will get wet so bring something appropriate). These sessions consist of shorter, faster efforts with more rest between activities
- Midway through most sessions we perform core strength, yoga and balance exercises
- When the water is clean and warm we also integrate a small amount of swimming into the sessions
- Paddling technique is instructed and sometimes filmed with comments provided
