exercise apres fencing

[westcoastsabre]

If one were to fence a 2 day competition, would it be advantageous for one to do light exercise (bike 2 miles, walking, light jogging) the morning of the 2nd day before going to the tournament?

Opinions are apreciated

Peronally I would say no. You had your exercise the first day. Sleep in a little, lol. Then again, working out just 'aint my thing.

Your warm-up routine should be sufficient to get your joints moving and your muscles warm for fencing, and that's all you need.

yeah, as Peach said, just warm up before you fence, some light footwork, streching, a couple of bouts, and you should be good

I would say do the light exercise after the first day's fencing, to loosen you up, help prevent cramping - a cool-down, essentially.
