Hello listeners. Today's episode is the start of a Q&A series with Dave Triska, a GP and fast time triallist who got in touch to ask about re-structuring training when there may be no season ahead. We discuss training and immunity and potential replacements for the season including zwift racing. Here is the races I asked Dave to take part in before we speak again to discuss his physiological strengths and weaknesses. Race 1 - Pure sprint - any of the city crit series e.g. london flatRace 2 - 45sec efforts x3/4 plus sprint - Innsbrucking course. This has a nasty 45 second hill on each lap, where everyone hammers it. Race 3 - 1x 5-6 minute Vo2max effort - either London hilly loop (friday at midday) or 1 lap of the whole lotta lava course. Race 4 - 2x 6 minute VO2 efforts - whole lotta lava 2 lap course. Race 5 - Any Alpe race - e.g. KOM race road to sky on weekends, this should be around 40 mins for you. Good FTP test.The podcast is sponsored by Black Cat Coffeehttps://www.blackcatcoffee.co.uk/Check out their wonderful selection of freshly roasted coffee, you won't be disapointed!

Continuing to talk about habituation and adaptation Today’s coffee is a honey process red bourbon from Black Cat roasters.

In this episode I discuss habituation vs adaptation. In future episodes I will go into more detail on these concepts and how to apply them to training.

Do you know when you should stop doing an interval session? Do you decide how many intervals you are going to do before you start? Have a listen as to why you might be leaving some gains on the table.

Should you be using ERG mode on the trainer? I don’t think so.

First in a series on running, first up is stop slowing down.
