Many years of TrainingPeaks data from top cyclists I have worked with show a consistent pattern: ~40–60% of the best 5, 10 and 20 min power outputs were achieved during training in individually prescribed HIIT sessions ~40–60% occur during races. In simple terms: -Zone 2 builds the mitochondrial engine. -HIIT adds the glycolytic turbo. Both bioenergetic stimuli must coexist in a training plan of competitive and recreational athletes. No engine ➡️ the turbo blows up. This is why the Zone 2 vs HIIT debate is futile. It was never either/or. If you want a deeper explanation: 👇 inigosanmillan.substack.com/p/zone-2-vs-hi…

Meta-analysis finds that taking an ice bath after strength training impairs gains. The inflammation, damage, stress is the SIGNAL for adaptation. Take it away...we blunt the response. Sometimes, damage is a good thing...

@coachgambetta Ordered! Thank you Vern and Martin!

It's here, get you copy now. Long time coming but worth the wait. Order from hmmrmedia.com/store/books/bu…

This is interesting! But is saline a placebo, or does it dilute, wash out, move “stuff” around that makes it feel different after? Is a true placebo injection a pretend injection with nothing actually injected into the joint!

This video shows the muscle activation during jogging, running and sprinting together with foot trajectories, ground reaction forces and the flexion/extension ranges of motion of the knees. For more information see: BoB-Biomechanics.com #biomechanics

@jgault13 It's the training didn't you know?

27 men's 800m runners have broken 1:44 in 2025. That is the most ever in one year. It's a crazy number by itself but even crazier when you consider how bad the event was a few years ago. Sub-1:44s by year 2022: 8 2023: 13 2024: 23 (all-time record) 2025: 27 (all-time record)

@pbasilstrength TEMPLATE

My Total Body Program Design Template It’s yours free With a sample 8-week progression Comment "TEMPLATE" below and I'll DM it to you

@CyclingYazz Amazing, thank you!

Last year, I made this brief stage-by-stage #TDF overview, and I was very surprised by how many people saw it and all the positive feedback it got! So I have made a new version for #TDF2025, which I will be sharing tomorrow along with a downloadable iCalendar! Stay tuned!🚴‍♂️🌻💛

@brady_h Agreed!

Training in the oppressive summer heat is hard physically. But winter running is psychologically harder. I never have problems getting out the door when it’s warm. Not the case when it’s cold. I don’t like it.

@pbasilstrength MAXES

Percentages aren’t the best way to program load I made a free guide on how to program without percentages And why it’s better way for your athletes Comment "MAXES" below and I'll DM it to you

@brady_h Amazing haha

Just did 10 push-ups.

@milesplit Scientists and coaches must have made a huge discovery in 2022. 🤔

Number of boys under 1:50 for 800m: 2021 - 6 2022 - 13 2023 - 18 2024 - 19 2025 - 23 (so far)

@mboyle1959 @KobraSportsMed 😂

@KobraSportsMed I’ve said this a bunch. What used to be functional training is now fascial training. Both concepts have some extreme proponents.

Can someone very clearly articulate to me how you can train muscles, tendons and ligaments without training the fascia? Or why it's 2 separate training systems I'll wait

@chamath Hey @chamath , I really recommend minimalist routines for busy people heres a great one 3-4 x a week -dynamic warmup (5 min) -vertical press 3x5 -assisted pull up 3x5 -split squat 3x5 each leg -swing 3x15 -ab rollout 3x5 -loaded carry: 1x1 minute -go for a brisk walk 30-45 min

I’m sorry but this isn’t sustainable if you want to remain married, engaged in your kids’ lives, have a social life and deal with the attendant caloric potholes (desserts, alcohol, unhealthy snacks) that come with the activities around any of those. There needs to be a simpler protocol that is about optimization that respects being in the grind with a ton of competing things for one’s time and being distracted and prone to having fun in the moment…not ever 2 days out of 40. Doesn’t work.

Annual reminder, bodypart and bodybuilding workouts are big time wasters ( unless you are actually a bodybuilder). 2-3 total body workouts make way more sense than “chest day” or “back day”.

New study finds that super spikes improve performance over 800m & 3k by about 2%. And improved running economy by 5% These were sub 34 (men) and 40 (women) 10k runners. So solid runners. Still shows a profound effect that explains the massive jump in performances.

@SahilBloom Solid time Sahil!! 💪

Half Marathon: 1:19:59 - New PR - Average Pace 6:02 - Finished 5th out of 675 - 1st in age group A lot of miles in the cold darkness of the pain cave, but we got it done. Let’s go! 🚀🔥

@keithjferrara 💯 yes!

Keep training simple: - Sprint to get faster - Jump to get powerful - Lift to get stronger & build resilience - Condition to repeat outputs over & over - Play your sport to build task specific skills You don’t need gimmicky drills. You need consistent & well planned training.

@davidmellyruns I've been thinking this for years

I am once again BEGGING marathon broadcasters to replicate even 1/10th of the visuals in your average cycling race
