Michael Rosenblat is a Canadian researcher working towards his PhD. In this interview we discuss one of his main research papers: a meta-analysis and systematic review comparing polarised training and threshold training in endurance sports. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT: -How polarised training and threshold training are defined in the scientific literature, and common misconceptions around this -The scientific evidence available comparing these training models -Why polarised training may work better than threshold training for endurance athletes -Just how polarised (high vs. moderate intensity) should polarised training be? -How strictly should athletes and coaches follow "hard numbers" in their training intensity distribution (between low, moderate, and high intensity)
