The New Year is upon us, and it’s time to think about the most popular thoughts of most riders and racers, it’s time to set goals for the new season ahead and get fit and healthy. We all make our own personal promises to ourselves and the world, about how we are going to train, change our lifestyle and cut out the crappy food and drink that seem to take over ones life over the festive period. Training has begun, but it’s not just training that will get us up to our target fitness, as we all know a Formula One car will not run on shitty fuel, we have to be putting the right stuff in our body to get the best out of it from training.
