Podcasts about active recovery

OVERVIEWIs there a real benefit to a recovery ride or would you be better off just taking the day off completely? Both recovery rides and complete rest are beneficial, but the choice between the two depends on how fatigued you are, your mood, and what else you have going on in your life. Sports science says they accomplish the same thing and are essentially interchangeable. But there are absolutely times when Coach Adam Pulford recommends active recovery (easy ride, walking, yoga, etc.) and other times when he advocates for complete rest. Learn to make the right choice when it really matters in Episode 251 of "The Time-Crunched Cyclist Podcast".TOPICS COVEREDActive vs. Passive RecoveryWhen to choose complete rest or passive recoveryWhen to choose a recovery ride or active recoveryOff-the-bike active recoveryResearch on active vs. passive recovery effectivenessLINKS/RESOURCESPassive vs Active Recovery on Peak Sprint Power Production: https://www.thieme-connect.com/products/ejournals/abstract/10.1055/s-0032-1331717Passive vs Active Recovery on MLSS Performance: https://cdnsciencepub.com/doi/abs/10.1139/h2012-105Passive vs Active Recovery:Passive Recovery Is Superior to Active Recovery During a High-Intensity Shock MicrocycleGood to Go Book: Christie AschwandenASK A QUESTION FOR A FUTURE PODCASTHOSTAdam Pulford has been a CTS Coach for nearly two decades and holds a B.S. in Exercise Physiology.

You're doing it all but could there be hidden mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness. Increasing protein, lifting weights, doing high intensity… How can you be this active but not working?  Disclaimer: This could trigger you. The mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness you could be doing on purpose because you were told once this is what you SHOULD DO.  This episode is for all women, and for you. So let's unpack these mistakes hijacking your menopause fitness.  Before anything.. Measure.  If you aren't measuring your body composition - skeletal muscle mass vs. body fat—you won't truly know what's working. I'll link to the 4 Smart scales in my store. You can get a Dexa or go to a gym. #1 Not Consuming Enough Fuel Women are not the same as men on carbohydrate needs. We get little, we disrupt hormones. You are influenced by cortisol, insulin, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone and the endocrine.   How much fuel do you need? Endocrine dysfunction - ~30-35 calories per kg of FFM in women; but around 15 calories per kg FFM in men. Fat Free Mass (FFM) - say you're 130kg and you have 25% body fat. You need 2923 kcals to keep your body functioning well.   Fueling Your Workouts: Cardio: 30g carbs and 15g protein before Strength: 15g protein before + 30-45g protein after (higher in and after menopause)    Thyroid & Carbohydrates Low carb diets (under 100g) - pivotal point for lower thyroid function.  Serotonin - produced in the gut, declines with low carb diets.  Low-carb diets - don't lead to better weight loss long-term, they cause water loss.   What Happens When You're Under-Fueled?Low Energy Availability from brain (hypothalamus) to body… Hypothalamus signals HPA axis dysfunction Adrenals releases cortisol Thyroid slows metabolism Body conserves energy and breaks down muscle instead of fat for fuel   When You Fast, try one of these: High intensity intervals  Lift heavy weights  High intensity boot camp class  Reduce carbs, maintain a keto-like diet while increasing your walks   Know the Sneaky Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness #2 Never REALLY Recovering From Hard Intervals or Hard Workouts  Some bootcamps and spin classes are rapid, high-intensity intervals without adequate recovery. Your cortisol levels during this session accumulate.  It feels like you crushed it, but here's the truth: if you're not giving yourself real recovery, you're not hitting your peak.  When you skip the full recovery, you're not building the strength and power that protect against sarcopenia (muscle loss). Try these: Warm-up A:  Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Slowly go back down Fully recover, with your nasal breathing. Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill Warm-up B: Run up a steep hill for 40 seconds Mark that point on the hill Quickly make your way down Cool down within 60 seconds Immediately run up again Repeat until you don't make it to the same spot on the hill They both will feel hard, but only one gets you to your maximum capacity.  The glycolytic fibers - fast twitch that sustain power fatigue quickly. Women have fewer of them than slow twitch and lose twice as fast as slow-twitch fibers. Fast-twitch fibers need power moves — like heavy lifting or box jumps — and plenty of recovery to reload and go again.  You're fooling yourself into thinking you're getting in better shape.  So test yourself… a simple protocol you can do at home. Try a full test battery you can easily do at home - I'll provide access to it in the show notes as soon as it's ready.  Measure. Monitor your waist girth, your body fat percent and your skeletal muscle. Rate your energy, sleep, focus, digestion and elimination. Are you improving, worse or the same? When you're exercising optimally these things also improve. It's not just muscle mass and fat.    Are these Mistakes Hijacking Your Menopause Fitness?   #3 Relying on Caffeine, Bar Codes and Over Emphasis on Packaged Food By nature, your cortisol level is highest at about 8am. You've fasted overnight and if you're not eating soon after waking, especially if you're exercising as a female, your body has stressor on top of stressor: Punched your ticket in midlife (less estrogen, more cortisol) Caffeine (more cortisol)  No fuel (more cortisol)  Exercise (more cortisol)  Fuel before intense exercise.  Fuel again after, especially within the 24 hour period after resistance training or other HARD workouts the need for recovery persists, so it's not just that single meal following activity. #4 Always High and Hard You have never needed high intensity more in your life than whatever age over 40 you are now.  You also need full recovery … between intervals, strength training sets and sessions.  Here's the secret: Muscle gets stronger between sessions. The exercise is the stimulus. The recovery is where fitness happens – the release of hormones, the repair and supercompensation.  Recovery time. Get AT LEAST 48 to 72 hours between hard use of the same muscle groups. Active Recovery. The low intensity movement between your hard sessions is absolutely important in increasing circulation, blood sugar stabilization, improving sleep and mood and overall fitness levels.    Keep It Simple: Movement Time. Walking at the level below where cortisol negatively spikes so you can reduce or optimize it. Short & Intense. Spend small amounts of time in high intensity interval session - where you recover completely between sessions. All Major Muscle Groups. Spend 2-3 sessions a week hitting all major muscle groups or twice to total muscle fatigue. If you're in post menopause, the volume of sets has to be greater compared to a perimenopause woman. Recover. Give yourself at least 48 hours.. 72 is often BEST.  Resources: Flipping50 Membership Flipping50 Insiders Group   Other Podcasts You Might Like: Previous Episode - Is Red Light Therapy the Answer to Aches, Pains and More Movement?

He is considering switching his A race to the Pike's Peak Hill Climb. The hosts discuss the concept of A, B, and C priority races and the importance of having multiple goals throughout the season. They emphasize the need to still give your best effort in B and C races and the importance of tapering for A races. They provide specific advice for Derek, suggesting two training blocks with a focus on muscular endurance for the hill climb. In this conversation, Adam and Kaitlyn discuss how walking 18 holes of golf does not count as four hours of zone two training. They explore different ways to incorporate fitness into golf, such as carrying a heavier bag or jogging between shots. They also discuss the idea of turning everyday activities into workouts and the importance of not counting dog walks as training. The conversation ends with a discussion about automated motorized bag carriers for golf clubs.   Keywords training plan, adapt, sickness, missed training, A race, B race, C race, priority races, goals, tapering, Pike's Peak Hill Climb, Triple Bypass, muscular endurance, golf, fitness, training, walking, jogging, everyday activities, dog walks, motorized bag carriers   Takeaways Having multiple goals throughout the season is healthy and allows for flexibility in adjusting race plans. A, B, and C priority races require different levels of tapering and preparation. Switching the focus to a different A race may require adjusting training blocks and incorporating specific workouts for the new event. It's important to give your best effort in all races, regardless of priority level. Panic training, or cramming in a lot of training right before an event, is not recommended. Adjusting training plans based on life circumstances or changing priorities is a normal part of the training process. Walking 18 holes of golf does not count as four hours of zone two training. Carrying a heavier bag or jogging between shots can help incorporate fitness into golf. Turning everyday activities into workouts can be a way to get more activity in. Dog walks should not be counted as training. Automated motorized bag carriers are available for golf clubs.   Titles Avoiding Panic Training Adapting Training Plans After Sickness Incorporating Fitness into Golf Turning Everyday Activities into Workouts   Sound Bites "I think putting all your eggs in like one basket for an entire year or season is just like dangerous." "If you don't put an emphasis on certain races or times of the year at least, you're probably just going to be kind of mediocre all the time." "You should still be going out there, giving it your best effort, whatever that looks like." "You definitely want to switch that focus sooner rather than later." "No, it definitely does not count as four hours of zone two."

In this episode, CJ discusses insights gained from a two-hour episode with Dr. Andrew Huberman of Stanford School of Medicine. Dr. Huberman shared his fitness toolkit, emphasizing simple yet powerful practices for enhancing fitness and overall health. CJ breaks down these practices and explains how you can integrate them into your daily routine.Key Takeaways:Calf Raises and Blood Sugar Management:Doing calf raises while sitting can significantly reduce insulin and blood glucose levels.Simple actions can have profound impacts on longevity and overall health.Zone 2 Cardio:Engage in moderate-intensity cardio, like hiking or brisk walking, where you can maintain a conversation.Aim for 180-200 minutes of Zone 2 cardio per week to reap substantial health benefits.Leg Training and Weighted Stretching:Training large muscle groups early in the week can enhance metabolic changes and hormone production.Incorporate weighted stretching exercises like calf raises, leg curls, and leg extensions to build strength and flexibility simultaneously.Active Recovery and Hot/Cold Therapy:Use active recovery days with hot/cold contrast sessions (e.g., sauna followed by cold plunge) to enhance muscle recovery and overall wellness.Incorporating these sessions can improve longevity, brain health, and muscle function.Consistent and Varied Workout Routine:Dr. Huberman follows a structured weekly fitness routine that balances endurance, strength, and recovery.Mixing high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with moderate-intensity exercises can optimize cardiovascular health without burnout.5 Things You Can Start Doing Today:Calf Raises:While sitting at your desk, perform calf raises periodically throughout the day to manage blood sugar levels and improve leg strength.Zone 2 Cardio:Aim for 30 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio, such as brisk walking or cycling, where you can still have a conversation. Start with a weekly goal and gradually increase to 180-200 minutes.Weighted Stretching Exercises:Incorporate exercises like leg curls, calf raises, and leg extensions into your routine. Focus on stretching the muscle while adding weight to enhance flexibility and strength.Active Recovery:Dedicate a day to active recovery using hot/cold contrast therapy. Try alternating between a hot bath or sauna and a cold shower or plunge.Yoga and Stretching:Include yoga or stretching sessions in your weekly routine to improve flexibility, enhance blood flow, and promote relaxation. Aim for at least 20 minutes, five times a week.CJ's breakdown of Dr. Andrew Huberman's fitness toolkit offers actionable insights and practical tips to integrate into your fitness routine.

What if I told you it's okay to maintain the body you're in, even if you haven't reached your fitness goals yet?Put down the weights, drop your meal prep containers, and listen…  Maintenance is not stopping that work towards your goals; it's actually an important piece of the process.Now, maintenance and a plateau are not the same thing; you'll have to listen in for the differentiation so you can get a clear picture of what you need to do.The most important thing is listening to your body (no, your muscles are not going to be screaming; let me rest; I mean, if they did, would you listen?). Here are some ways you can tune in:-10 minute rule: After 10 minutes of warm up, if you still feel tired, run down and not totally stoked for your workout...  move to a more restorative form of exercise. -Full recovery: Before your next workout, your muscles should feel fully recovered from the last time you worked them.-Energized not exhausted: You want to end your workouts feeling amazing, not like a roadkill.Alright, so now that we know WHEN you need it, let's talk HOW. Because active recovery is not sitting on your ass, that's just called sitting on your ass. -Reduce volume and intensity of workouts, but don't stop moving.-Prioritize sleep (check out last week's badass guest for more sleep advice).-A shit ton of water: i.e. half your body weight in ounces.-Don't eat like an ASSHOLE, take this as a chance to drop the strict rules and focus on eating to feel good, full, and satisfied.Whether you crave constant movement, you feel like exercise is somehow the only valid form of self care (it's not), or your head is full of fat anxiety chatter...  Remember that active recovery and maintenance are not going to hurt your goals. In fact, it will only help it!What's Inside:Maintenance versus plateau…what's the difference?When to chill, tips for listening to your bod.Active Recovery: Surprise! It's not sitting on your ass.Mindful reminders for constant movers and fat anxiety.Is it time to give your body a break and move into active recovery for even better results? What's holding you back? Is it fat anxiety, or can you just not survive a day out of the gym?
