Simon Ward, The High Performance Human Triathlon Podcast
Health & Fitness
"Just doing endurance work is a disaster." So says today's podcast guest, run coach Bobby McGee. I happen to agree with him. Regardless of whether you're training for triathlon or for the individual disciplines of swim, bike, run, JUST doing long, slow, distance work is not going to give you the best outcomes. I think this is even more relevant as you get older.
In this week's episode not only do Bobby and I talk about a lot of methods to develop explosive power, we also talk about using power meters for running.
Do you have a power meter on your bike? Most folks do, but even if you don't, you've probably been tempted to see what all the fuss is about. What about a power meter for running?
