Coach Harte has been doing some savage work to get the Zen Planner tracker up and running. For those of you who are unsure how to use it, feel free to ask any of the coaches. It’s easy to set up on your phone and simple to use. The apple version is located here , while the android version is located here. It’s important for everyone to log their workouts to enable you to see your progression through the cycles and to celebrate your achievements. Catalyst athletics have a rather nice article here giving a brief explainer on the importance of celebrating milestones, no matter how small.
