Summary
Surprise bonus episode! On Patreon, we are doing weekly episodes where we answer (mostly) training questions from subscribers, and we wanted to release this week's to everyone to say THANK YOU ALL. We said the word "sexy" way too many times... or just the right number of times.
Topics this week: the "why" behind different stride lengths (i.e. 20 seconds versus 30 seconds), training week structure and ensuring the right intensity distribution within context of workouts, cross training workouts on the bike and how we use them for some athletes, doubles and just how short/slow they can be, and weird nuances in training theory that apply at the outer margins of human performance. We love you all! HUZZAH!
