Summary

Derek is seeking advice on how to adapt his training plan after being sick and missing weeks of training leading up to his A race, the Triple Bypass. He is considering switching his A race to the Pike's Peak Hill Climb. The hosts discuss the concept of A, B, and C priority races and the importance of having multiple goals throughout the season. They emphasize the need to still give your best effort in B and C races and the importance of tapering for A races. They provide specific advice for Derek, suggesting two training blocks with a focus on muscular endurance for the hill climb. In this conversation, Adam and Kaitlyn discuss how walking 18 holes of golf does not count as four hours of zone two training. They explore different ways to incorporate fitness into golf, such as carrying a heavier bag or jogging between shots. They also discuss the idea of turning everyday activities into workouts and the importance of not counting dog walks as training. The conversation ends with a discussion about automated motorized bag carriers for golf clubs.

Takeaways

  • Having multiple goals throughout the season is healthy and allows for flexibility in adjusting race plans.
  • A, B, and C priority races require different levels of tapering and preparation.
  • Switching the focus to a different A race may require adjusting training blocks and incorporating specific workouts for the new event.
  • It's important to give your best effort in all races, regardless of priority level.
  • Panic training, or cramming in a lot of training right before an event, is not recommended.
  • Adjusting training plans based on life circumstances or changing priorities is a normal part of the training process. Walking 18 holes of golf does not count as four hours of zone two training.
  • Carrying a heavier bag or jogging between shots can help incorporate fitness into golf.
  • Turning everyday activities into workouts can be a way to get more activity in.
  • Dog walks should not be counted as training.
  • Automated motorized bag carriers are available for golf clubs.

    Sound Bites

    • "I think putting all your eggs in like one basket for an entire year or season is just like dangerous."
  • "If you don't put an emphasis on certain races or times of the year at least, you're probably just going to be kind of mediocre all the time."
  • "You should still be going out there, giving it your best effort, whatever that looks like."
  • "You definitely want to switch that focus sooner rather than later."
  • "No, it definitely does not count as four hours of zone two."
  • "Make your bag 30 pounds and then carry that for 18 holes."
