Summary: <br> How can you survive lockdown, or even thrive and make some improvements and gains? Well Jonny Thompson from <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://fit4racing.com" target="_blank">Fit4Racing</a> is here to help. We sat down to chat about ways to approach the lockdown period and cover things like the importance of scheduling, strength and conditioning, nutrition, cardio, mobility, mental health, meditation and plenty more. Jonny has made a short video on mobility too, which you can find here <a href="https://fit4racing.com/the-zone/how-to-improve-mobility-for-mtb-riders/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">‘How to Improve Mobility’</a>.
