In this episode of The Vet Show, Coach Robb and Andrew Hopson break down motocross periodization and why veteran riders need to stop treating every week, workout, and local race like a championship event. The conversation explains that real motocross fitness is built through a long-term training plan that includes an offseason, recovery, aerobic conditioning, strength training, and carefully timed race preparation. Taking four to six weeks away from structured training does not mean becoming inactive. It means reducing physical and mental fatigue, enjoying the motorcycle again, and allowing the body to rebuild so riders can make bigger gains later in the season.
