Listen in to todays episode where Kriss is joined by Exercise Physiologist from Northumbria University, Dr. Phil Hayes. As a Professor, Sports Scientist and Reseacher with over 30 years experience, he gives us a fascinating insight into some of the research and studies he’s done over the years. From how fatigue effects running gait, specifically the role of muscular strength; aerobic interval training, quantifying training and the relative age effect.

But Phil is also unique, as well as having an incredible knowledge and understanding around the science of running, as an active Level 4 Athletics Coach he also delivers his knowledge into real life performance to runners at club level. Two ends of the spectrum that can often feel disjointed.

A really eye opening conversation, lots of discussion points and plenty to take away into your own training.
