We saved the best for last
You are a rare breed! Most people will not successfully complete this challenge, so congratulations on getting this far. Well done!
It’s the final day of the 5 Day Challenge and we saved the most enjoyable workout for last!
But first a bit of housekeeping…
We designed this challenge as a learning experience. It is not a training plan for use on an ongoing basis.
If you want to follow a professionally designed training plan with structured workouts to maximize your fitness and performance, your best bet is the Nordic Ski Lab Training Club.
The NSL Training Club is a one of a kind program that delivers a premium experience at a fraction of the price of one-on-one coaching.
Our training plan is top notch and includes lots of video instruction, but what really sets us apart is the interaction, support and accountability we deliver. If you want a program that you will actually do and succeed at, the Training Club is for you!
