Top Coupley Things to Do in Bali izy January 15, 2014 Travel Blog By the time April rolls around I am going to be well and truly ready for a holiday. As an athlete I spend between 20-30 hours a week training. That’s 20-30 hours every week, aside from a few weeks off at the end of the season to relax, before kicking back into gear again preparing for the next season. My week usually consists of 2 or 3 sessions in the gym lifting heavy weights. 2-4 sessions on the track sprinting, working on starts, towing sleds and running longer reps to increase speed endurance. Depending on what time of year it is ,I run hill sprints and sand dunes, not to mention circuit training, core work, massage and mobility. All for a race that lasts around 10 seconds. It’s brutal and my body is constantly in pain, whether its shin splints, muscle strains or just general fatigue. So this year Izy and I have decided to head to Bali for a few weeks after my last competition of the year and kick back. I can’t wait to spend some time surfing and soaking up the sun. Here are the top 5 things to do as a couple in Bali: ©Massage Ubud Get a Couples Massage What could be better than enjoying a relaxing massage together in a tropical paradise.
