Training Advice for Ramadan

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Dave Foord, petak, 12. juni 2020., 09:23

The holy month of Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and a time when many Muslims across the world fast during daylight hours for 29-30 days.

As a result, athletes undergo an intermittent fast period. The way they cope with the demands of training and racing becomes especially challenging in these times. Depending on the geographical location and the season of the year, the duration of the fast will vary.

Over the past years, Muslim athletes have had an added challenge to the already stressful period. The major Games and championships were scheduled right after the end of Ramadan. It left Muslim athletes in a clear disadvantage against their competitors who don't decide to undergo the intermittent fast period. Also, the weather becomes scorching in the summer, making some training scenarios especially challenging to deal with.

In this video, the Abushabab Brothers, International Palestinian Triathletes, take us with them throughout their daily routine in Ramadan as they have gained experience throughout their years on the best possible & most efficient approach to tackle their day. Video Created for World Triathlon by Abdallah and Omar Abushabab, International Palestinian Triathletes and World Triathlon Development - Team ASTC Athletes.
