75: Why Your Easy Pace Isn't Improving, Low Volume Marathon Plans, and More: Our Informed Hot Takes
In the midst of a running boom, there is more information than ever being shared on social media. However, some of that information is misguided or presented without nuance - if not just straight up inaccurate. Our “hot takes” episodes guide you through some of these topics, drawing from our years of experience in coaching and from an evidence-based approach to coaching and training theory.
Discussion points:
- Should you take electrolytes daily during the summer?
- Should your easy pace always be improving?
- Is red light therapy beneficial for recovery?
- Should you take ice baths?
- Do run less, run faster marathon plans work?
