Listen Later

In todays conversation your host, Nic, chats to Dr. Philip Batterson, a Physiologist, Coach and Endurance specialist from Oregon, USA.

Phil holds extensive knowledge in the field of exercise physiology and it's application when it comes to endurance sports. Today we chat in detail about heat and altitude training for endurance runners. We focus on:

  • The science behind these methodologies of training.
  • How to optimise your oxygen carrying capacity through heat or altitude stress.
  • How to practically apply what the current best practices are.
  • How to perfect racing in these environments.
  • Alternative modalities of training around this topic.


Phil holds a PhD in Molecular physiology and has over a decade of coaching and physiological assessment experience. He was a fantastic guest who spoke confidently and shared loads of insight around these topics. If you are interested in hearing more from Phil you can go and give his own podcast a follow "Critical Oxygen" and give him a follow on social media @drphilbatterson.

I hope you found this conversation as insightful as we did and learn to make the most of your environment going forward become the best athlete you possibly can be.

Enjoy the conversation - As always, feel free to leave a comment, a review and share with your running buddies.
