Ep. 50 - Periodization 101 | How to PERIODIZE Your Training

This week's episode feature a guide to periodization for distance runners. Periodization is simply how your training progresses from the beginning of a training cycle to your peak race. There are many ways to do this. Periodization truly is an art. I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout!

In this episode, I talk about:

  • What periodization is
  • Periodization terminology
  • Linear vs. nonlinear periodization
  • How to make periodization work for you
  • Some closing words of wisdom
  • Link to the study on periodization in highly-trained and elite distance runners: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/359923898_Training_Periodization_Methods_Intensity_Distribution_and_Volume_in_Highly_Trained_and_Elite_Distance_Runners_A_Systematic_Review
