EP. 41 - The Most Important Factors in Adaptation as an Athlete


Listen Later

As runners and athletes, we train for adaptation. It’s our ability to adapt that allows us to run faster, farther, and stronger.

The issue is that adaptation is not easily achieved. To achieve this overarching goal, we must first understand which factors provide us with the best return on investment. Today’s episode is a discussion on growth and development and the most impactful areas of your training to maximize if you hope to set a PR in the near future.

We discuss the following factors in detail:

  1. Time
  2. Stimulus
  3. Recovery
  4. Each of these areas is essential in your capacity for progression in running. Additionally, these factors can also serve as a way to self-assess whether you’re in a promising position for development, at this point of your running career and life. Apply these three pillars of adaptation to your training approach and mindset and see how they can positively impact your running!
