Not all of Andy’s training regime is based on a court - occasionally they hit the gym, and occasionally they hit the track; and trust me, the track is nasty.

It plays a crucial part in building up strength and stamina, but it’s not for the faint of heart…

Here’s your opportunity to take a look behind-the-scenes at a couple of their sessions from the last week or so. And if you thought running a single 100 meter sprint was bad, try 20 of them in a row with just 45 seconds recovery time in between, averaging about 14 seconds for each.

Sound bad? It is…

1. Andy checks his split-time on sprint No. 12.

 

 

2. Andy goes through the pain barrier (again) on sprint No. 14. He’ll go again in about 20 seconds..

 

 

3. Matty Little (and Miles) both get the job done too…

 

 

4. Andy leaves his mark on the track after sprint No. 20…

 

 

5. From 100 meters to 400 meters: Andy pushes for the line…

 

 

6. Fitness comes at a price…
