#940 - What's The Quantity of Your Quality?


Listen Later

Today we look at how the little things matter. Quality over quantity is a good benchmark, but how much actual quality work are you doing? And, how do we actually define quality?

First we discuss whether our old podcasts hold up and where we think our positions have changed over 10 years. Then we discuss things like is 5 x 1200's in the pool better than 2 x 3000 per week? Or what about 5 x 30 minute runs vs. one 2:30? We get into how to build confidence, familiarity, and muscle memory go a long ways toward your goals, and even confidence in life. Should you jump on the bike for 20 minutes when you're bored? Will it matter? A lot of people talk about quality over quantity, but what about the Quantity of Quality? Negative splitting everything. We talk imposter syndrome, weekend warriors, and the bitter truth about Ironman.
