Toni Bou knows how to get through quarantine without getting off his bike

There are many ways to get through the quarantine under the state of alarm decreed in recent days. Some devote themselves to reading, watching television, writing or doing sport at home. Others, in addition to doing all of that, decide to keep up their training routines, adapting them to the need to stay shut in at home. One of those athletes who keeps up his training without going out into the street is Toni Bou.

The rider has been outdoor trial champion 13 times and indoor champion 14 times, and knows how to take life with humour. He shows this in a video that has been made public, in which he carries out a fairly complete workout at home thanks to his Montesa. From the moment he gets up, he gets on his bike and begins doing all the things we do when we get up, but, of course, sitting on his motorbike.

He rides his bike to the bathroom and brushes his teeth. Then he heads to the lift that connects his bedroom with the kitchen, without getting off his bike, and makes himself a coffee. Afterwards, he starts doing various training exercises using furniture and other objects that he can find in the living room.

Stools, chairs and even the dog’s kennel on the terrace serve to become challenges to overcome during this improvised training session at home. All these items can be used as obstacles to move around the house with some difficulty and carry out functional, practical training.

With this short video, recorded by the rider’s own girlfriend, you can see that the rider refuses to be confined and uses everything around him to turn his home into a trial training ground. It is worth remembering that just a few weeks ago Toni Bou took the win at the fifth round of the 2020 X-Trial World Championship in Bilbao.
