We ‘re three months out from the start of the 2019 NATC/AMA National
MotoTrials Series and from what we hear, the best of the best have been
putting in a lot of work in preparation for the start of the season. This
month we ‘re checking in with Gas Gas rider Alex Niederer to see how his
training is going down in Florida.
How is your off-season training going?
Actually better than expected, I feel like I’m ahead of where I wanted to be and
that makes me very happy, and confident.
Are you doing anything different in your training from previous years?
Nothing major, but I have focused on what has worked well and cut out things
that weren’t giving me the results that I was looking for. I’m more consistent with
my schedule, getting up at the same time regardless of what day it is, trying to
eat healthy and get enough rest. Just focusing on what I feel is making the big-
gest difference.
You had a season that was interrupted by injury. Are you fully healed
now?
