In ski jumping there is many important sections combined, and going up is one of them. Even the slightest insecurity at this point fills the jump with hesitation. Sedate climbing is the key to calm pulse, and calm pulse is the key to focused jump.

Taking a break.

Just exercising every day can be harmful to your progress. Your muscles needs some time to rest, tired horse can´t run. It is good to relax and take your mind off from practising once a week. Overtraining your body may cause muscle strain and injury. Most important thing in developing yourself is to stay healthy.

Every now and then I make a trip to the nearest place to jump in Helsinki region, Herttoniemi. One part of practising is journey to the hill. Familiar route helps to reduce the stress when I will actually go jumping.
