Most of us mortals dream of holidays with siestas, beaches, and lazy afternoons. But for others, this all sounds boring, and they prefer to improve their sports skills in their free time. It’s not about taking up a new sport while on holidays (something that can lead to unwanted aches and pains and ruin a few days of your well-earned break) but rather working on your regular training and setting new challenges in different settings.
