That Triathlon Show

Bruce Rogers, MD, is one of the researchers behind the research on using the non-linear HRV-based marker DFA alpha-1 (which can be be measured non-invasively and for free or very cheaply) to assess the aerobic threshold. We discuss this research and its applications in this interview.   

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

-What is DFA alpha-1, and how can you measure it? 

-The current evidence behind using DFA alpha-1 as a marker for the aerobic threshold (LT1/VT1)

-Testing protocols, and hardware and software requirements for testing

-Limitations and challenges, including devices, artifacts, and training modality

-How to incorporate DFA alpha-1 testing in your training

-Other potential applications of DFA alpha-1, including assessing fatigue and durability

Luca Filipas, PhD, is a researcher at the University of Milan and an endurance sports coach of professional and amateur runners, cyclists, and triathletes. In this interview, we discuss his recent study comparing polarised, pyramidal, and combined POL-PYR or PYR-POL training intensity distributions, and the applications of this research in planning a periodised endurance training plan. 

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

-How combining pyramidal and polarised training blocks (in that specific order) may be a more effective periodisation scheme to optimise endurance performance

-How the goal event (e.g. 5k vs. marathon running) might influence and change these findings

-The alignment of a pyramidal-polarised periodisation with classic tapering and peaking research

-Periodisation across a season: the importance of downtime and careful race planning

-Luca's coaching methodology and top tips for endurance athletes

Olli-Pekka Nuuttila is a doctoral researcher at the University of Jyväskylä. In this interview we discuss his recent study comparing two-week blocks of either increased volume (70% increase over baseline) or increased intensity (5 interval sessions per week), and how the findings can be applied in the real world.  

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

-How does a two-week block of volume or intensity impact performance (3000m running time trial), subjective markers of recovery, and hormonal/biomarkers of recovery and stress?

-The impact of adding a recovery week after a two-week focused block on volume or intensity

-Individual variations in response and non-responders or trivial responses

-When and how to incorporate volume blocks or intensity blocks in your training
