Like it or not, we slow down as we age. Do some parts of our physiological machinery slow down faster than others? If so, what does that mean for training and endurance performance?
We hear from Fast Talk all-star guests like Joe Friel, Neal Henderson, and Amos Brumble about what their favorite workout is and why.
We get asked a lot of great—and nerdy—questions via our Fast Talk Labs Forum. Every month we’ll now be taking the best questions and publishing our answers. This month, our in-house physiologist Rob Pickels tackles the topics of altitude training and the impact of body composition on hypothermia.
Whether you’re a participant, event organizer, or volunteer, keep in mind Murphy’s Law – anything that can go wrong could (or will) go wrong. When one or more athletes are injured, you need to know what to do. We talk with Dr. Andy Pruitt about how to ensure the best outcomes.
We talk with Joe Friel about the newest edition of his bestselling cycling training book The Cyclist’s Training Bible. We touched on everything from periodization to energy systems, to Joe’s method of research…which believe it or not, has a lot to do with hundreds of 3”x5” note cards.
What are the most common mistakes we see in athletes—even pros? We hear from a variety of athletes, coaches, and experts who help us avoid catastrophe.
Coach Alec Donahue of Cycle-Smart helps us answer questions about training zones, cyclocross, weekly planning, and alcohol.
