Summary

We're back for another episode of answering YOUR questions! TriDot coaches John Mayfield, Elizabeth James, Jeff Raines, and Joanna Nami are in the hot seat on this round-robin, rapid-fire episode! Learn how to ease back into training after illness, train your gut for longer workouts, and plan for specific terrain in your upcoming race. Listen in as the coaches talk about mobility versus strength sessions, adjusting your training after a poor night (or several nights) of sleep, and how much time you should spend in aero on your indoor workouts. They also discuss overcoming swim panic and a hot new metric: VLaMax. Join the TriDot Crew at CLASH Miami in March! Use code TRIDOTMIAMI for 10% off any event!
