Crushing Iron Triathlon Podcast ·

2024/09/26

Success and getting better takes the ability to be willing to fail along the way. We can play it safe, but we’re training for Ironman, not SoftMan. On the other hand, it’s just a race and we pay to do this, so let’s take some chances? Have a plan, then a back up plan, and a back up plan for the back up plan. Roll with what’s in front of you. Quitting isn’t an option. But “giving in” on the course is the real demon. What are you going to do when things aren’t going your way? Figure out a solution, or

Focus on the details is very important when it comes to your race, but what are the right details? Today, we get into the “no man’s land” of training.

Crushing Iron Triathlon Podcast ·

2024/08/13

Today we break down how volume and intensity overlap. Just because something is defined as “easy” doesn’t mean it’s not intense. How do you think about intensity?

Many of us can look at the metrics, but how deep is our understanding? Today, we look at the decorations of triathlon in your training platform. Are you just becoming addicted to new numbers for the sake of it? Are the numbers confusing you more than letting you be your best? Do you really understand how you feel during a given workout?
