Summary
Life is a hell of a lot easier when we're not trying to be someone else. Today, we get into how that relates to training. We tend to get a lot of information from the Elite People in their fields, but a lot of times they are so far past us they'll take the things we really need for granted. Today, we get into the nuts and bolts of training, increasing intensity, fueling, eating habits, and general well-being. Too many of us make multiple decisions at once and it can be overwhelming. Find something that works for you and stand by it. Have the courage to be yourself and believe in your own journey.
Topics:
- Don't be someone you're not
- Transitioning to the heat
- Dew point, humidity, wind
- Ramping intensity
- High altitude and heat analogy
- Reasons for under hydrating
- Eating by numbers
- No hydration before workouts?
- Workouts are only as good as your ability to recover
- Two big decisions at once . . . . . .

- Fueling for performance or physique?

- Are you fueling enough to do more?
- When we get our info from Elite Athletes
- Sick/Fast Food Theory
