Hand washing and the marginal gains helping Team GB succeed In Tokyo 2020
(Händewaschen und die marginalen Leistungsfortschritte für den Erfolg von Team GB in Tokio 2020)
Hygiene will be a key component as Team GB look for marginal gains at Tokyo 2020.
It may sound a little bizarre but as athletes prepare for the Olympics this summer, they are being advised to wash their hands properly, even being shown tutorials.
The English Institute of Sport recommends competitors use SureWash, an online training programme used by NHS professionals after it was found coughs and colds are the main reason for athletes missing training days.
It was discovered that, between 20 July 2015 and the same date in 2017, a staggering 5,800 days of training were scuppered due to respiratory illnesses.
