@ThinkFitPod

Kia Ora guys,

Sorry about the absence of posts but I have been busy between work, traveling and training which has absorbed a lot of my spare time. I have had a few 13-15 hour training weeks since IRONMAN NZL but I have backed off over the last week to cater for the increase in my work load due to two of my staff moving on.

It has been over a month since Ironman NZL and I am not as fit or as strong as I was leading into the race meaning my training stats are no longer applicable so, with five months until Sunshine Coast 70.3 in Mooloolaba I need to set benchmarks once (Benchmarks = pain aha) again for my CSS (Critical Swim Speed) and FTP (Functional Threshold Power) to build off my current fitness and set my training sessions accordingly which I am pretty excited about, but..... (For more info on CSS and FTP Click Here to read my post)

​What I am even more excited about is my newest venture with my best mate Tim Ford, we have finally pushed the GO button kick starting @ThinkFitPod where we tell you what we think about fitness.

As a disclaimer we need to make you aware that we are in no way experts on the topics we discuss but share our views, experiences of losing almost 100 kg's between the two of us and going from 5 hours + half ironman's to sub 4.20 and more!

Although our story is very similar we put on the weight two different ways and got to where we are in our own ways also but, the fundamentals are the same meaning; nothing has been achieved with out hard work, dedication and passion.

We have just recorded our first podcast episode which will be loaded in the next few days and with it we bring to the table a bit of good ol Kiwi/Ozzie banter as we introduce ourselves but until then, click the below links to read our stories
