Evidence-Based Training: How Science Should (and Shouldn’t) Guide Your Training


Listen Later

This episode is packed with hot takes, science, and training wisdom.

🔥 In this episode, we cover:✅ The hot or not takes on hybrid athletes, run clubs, eventing races, and (yes) ankle weights!
✅ TSS (Training Stress Score): What it means, how to use it, and why your watch might be lying to you.
✅ What evidence-based coaching actually means—how we evaluate scientific studies, avoid pseudoscience, and make real-world coaching decisions.
✅ The science behind running, fueling, and why not every study is worth trusting.

💡 Bonus: Learn why you shouldn’t just copy what elite athletes do—and how to separate science from clickbait.
