Josh Cowan is setting himself for a big NAB Challenge after a relatively trouble-free pre-season to date.

The resilient midfielder, who played two AFL games in 2015 after spending the best part of four years on the sidelines, has been a standout on the track in the past month or so.

“[My body] is feeling pretty good at the moment, which is a bit of change from previous years,” Cowan told CatsTV when interviewed as part of the pre-season video series.

"I'm in full training at the moment and getting through nicely, so hopefully that continues right through until the pre-season games start."
