Summary
Our 250th Crushing Iron Podcast seems fitting as it's about staying motivated and energized by making sure you're handling your training load in the right way. If you've been around triathlon a while, you realize it's not easy to overtrain, but it's definitely easy to under-recover.
Topics:
- start again today
- exercising as you age
- Load Management
- How to understand volume
- When to pick up volume
- it's hard to over exercise but easy to under recover
- why athletes under perform in workouts
- turning fast into far
- stress as volume
- Weekend Warriors
- making adjustments in training and races
- how life impacts training
- training to where you are
- training to get you to the next step
- fatigue resistance "reserves"
- when you should under train
- who slows down the least?
- weekend warrior mentality
- a glimpse of how it feels to Taper
- Why weekdays might be more important that big weekends
- Do yourself and your body a favor
- What is Epic?
