Summary

Bas van Hooren is a sport scientist, sport science consultant, and a runner with multiple national championship medals. In this interview we discuss a number of topics Bas has researched, including practical applications of these findings.     IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT: -Are cool-downs necessary?  -Is there a physiological or biomechanical difference between treadmill and outdoor running?  -What do we know about the physiology and training characteristics of the best older athletes in the world (70+)?  -Are there "sensitive periods" and what are the issues with the Long-Term Athlete Development model?  -Strength and conditioning science and application for runners and endurance athletes -Devices and technology   SHOWNOTES: https://scientifictriathlon.com/tts411/   SCIENTIFIC TRIATHLON AND THAT TRIATHLON SHOW WEBPAGE: www.scientifictriathlon.com/podcast/   SPONSORS: FORM Smart Swim Goggles give you unprecedented real-time feedback in your swim training through a display on the goggle lens. See every split to stay on pace, track your stroke rate and don't let it drop, use heart rate to become more scientific and precise with your training (through integration with Polar HR monitors) and analyse more in-depth metrics post-swim in the app. You can also use a vast library of workouts or training plans, or build your own guided workouts. Get 15% off the goggles with the code TTS15 on formswim.com/tts.    ZEN8 - The ZEN8 Indoor Swim Trainer is a unique Dryland Swim Trainer that allows you to improve technique, power, and swim training consistency. With the trainer you can do specific power and technique work, including working on your catch and core activation, and it helps you stay consistent even if you don’t have much time to train. You can try the Zen8 risk-free for up to 30 days, and you can get 20% off your first order on zen8swimtrainer.com/tts.   LINKS AND RESOURCES: Bas' Twitter, website and Research Gate Do We Need a Cool-Down After Exercise?

0:30.1

Buzz is a sports scientist, sports science consultant, and a runner with multiple national championship medals and a 10kpb of 2841.

0:39.5

And in this interview we discussed a number of topics that he has researched, including

0:44.6

practical applications of these findings as well.

0:47.8

Some of the topics recovery include cool downs, treadmill versus outdoor running, older athletes

0:53.3

that perform at a really high level,

0:55.4

strength and conditioning, science and application, devices and technology and quite a few more bits and pieces.

1:01.4

But before we get into the interview, big thanks to our sponsors form.

1:04.8

The form smart swim goggles give you real-time feedback in your swim training right on the goggle lens,

1:08.9

including splits, pace, stroke rate and heart rate.

1:11.8

This means that you can execute your swim workouts better and get a better idea of your ability

1:15.6

to hold certain paces and stroke rates and understand when and why you start to slow down.

1:20.3

The best thing is that you can see and interpret this data in real time in the session, so it's

1:24.3

actionable and it can help you right then and there you don't have to go into

1:28.3

the workout data after you can understand right as you're working on on your swim

1:33.2

also it adds more fun and engagement to swim training especially if you're swimming solo

1:37.4

and you can get 15% of the goggles with the code ttz15 on forum swim.com forsts slash tts

1:43.4

and thank you to senate the senate indoor swim trainer allows you to improve your technique, power and swim training consistency even when you're short on time. It's a great tool for busy athletes because you can do a quality workout in just 15 minutes at home, even on days when you don't have time to get to the pool. And it is a good complement to pool and open water swimming as it allows you to focus specifically on key aspects of your swimming like your catch or your power or you can isolate these more easily than you can in the water. You can try the CNA2 risk free for up to 30 days. So if you don't love it, just send it back and you can get 20% off your first order on cnaitointra.com for shthshths.
