#836 – Work Smarter for Better Stimulus


Listen Later

Today we look at ways to work on little things that matter instead of always grinding yourself to the core. Better economy and efficiency go a LONG ways in this sport, so how do you get better inside a typical training session. We look at different ways you can work the swim, bike, and run to keep your HR in a solid place, but create more stimulus. We look at how to becomg a more well rounded athlete and create balance in your body. We talk about growth inside the zone. We get into what soreness and fatigue tell us about our body. We talk a lot about hills and why they are king. Being in a zone and dog walking hacks. 

Topics:

  • Holes in the ice
  • Creating stimulus in "easy" workouts
  • Hill running/walking
  • Cycling hills
  • Aero position limitations
  • Faster or slower with a pull buoy?
  • What does this tell you?
  • Strong side/weak side
  • Growth in the same zone
  • Well rounded triathletes
  • I hate high cadence work (why?)
  • Improving efficiency and economy vs. speed and duration
  • Working hard but on technique
  • Hills are hacks
  • In race recovery
  • Just keep spinning
  • Make it easier
  • Slow down and do the work
  • Being in the zone that makes it feel easier
  • New to endurance sports
  • Applying work to deficiencies
  • Stimulus for gearing, cornering and smaller details
