Pre-Season training gathers pace in Lausanne

Day 1 of Cardiff City's pre-season training camp began in earnest on Monday morning, following a day of travel on Sunday to arrive in the West Swiss city of Lausanne.

The climate on the continent is very similar to what we've currently been enjoying back home in Wales of late, with highs of 26 degrees on Monday allowing sharp ball drills and pleasant conditions for some serious fitness work and conditioning.

A notable aspect of Monday's sessions was the intensity and tempo of the close quarter ball retention sessions. Premier League football will demand elite fitness and mental speed - an evident area of focus in Malky and his coaches' early summer training practices.

We'll be bringing you exclusive interviews, photographs, social network updates and a daily tour diary over the next 6 days via the Club's official website (here!!), Cardiff City Player, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest. Remember to follow, like and enjoy our official Pinterest, Facebook, twitter and YouTube accounts so that you don't miss a beat of the lads' 2013 Swiss adventure!
