What do Cristiano Ronaldo, LeBron James... and astronauts have in common? They're all using the same training technology, blood flow restriction (BFR). In this episode, host Richard Graves back Dr. Warren Bradley, Chief Science Officer and founder of Hytro, to unpack how BFR is transforming the way athletes train, recover, and even how astronauts prepare for life in space. You'll learn: What blood flow restriction actually is, and how it helps build strength, muscle, and endurance faster (with less load on your body). Why BFR is no longer just for injury rehab, and how pro athletes are using it to boost performance and speed up recovery. The science behind why restricting blood flow (safely!) creates powerful training adaptations. How Warren's product ended up on a SpaceX rocket, and why NASA now uses BFR to fight muscle loss in space. Common myths and misconceptions about BFR… including whether it's safe (spoiler: it is, with the right approach). Where BFR is heading next, from grassroots athletes to medical rehab and even everyday gym-goers. Warren also shares his incredible journey, from working in the Premier League to founding a company used by over 260 elite teams worldwide, all the way to collaborating with NASA for space missions. This is one of those episodes that blends cutting-edge science with real-world application. Whether you're a coach, athlete, or just a performance fanatic, this one's a must-listen.

This episode is all about identifying the right approach to endurance training for different types of athletes. Some people are genetically predisposed to strength and power, while others are built for stamina. While most of us fall somewhere on a spectrum between the two, knowing your athlete archetype can help you determine your optimal approach to training. This episode is built on Drew's blog post from a month ago, so if you need some written examples of what we discuss you can refer to that.Some key topics we address:Strength and power adaptations are largely neurological, while endurance adaptations are largely physiological. As a result, intensity is the key training variable for strength and power, while volume if the key to endurance.We return to a frequent topic on this podcast, which is the energy systems model routinely found in strength and conditioning education classes.Zone 2, who it's appropriate for, and when. Alternate cardio modalities (like biking, rowing, and swimming) and how they fit into training when the primary focus is often running.The classic "training residuals" chart that appears in so many textbooks, and just a few of the reasons it's probably not accurate for most people.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain how to optimize hormones—particularly testosterone, estrogen, and related sex steroids—to enhance fertility and overall well-being. I discuss the sources of testosterone and estrogen and how their levels fluctuate with age in both males and females. I also cover how behaviors such as exercise, cold and heat exposure, light exposure, illness, and breathing patterns affect hormones. Additionally, I examine specific supplements and replacement therapies, highlighting important precautions to consider when adjusting hormone levels. Huberman Lab Essentials episodes are approximately 30 minutes long and focus on key scientific insights and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes.

Are you letting your race budget hold you back from achieving your peak performance? Join me, Patrick McCrann, head coach at Endurance Nation, as I share how training camps can be your secret weapon for endurance success. Discover how I managed to balance family life, work-from-home responsibilities, and training by strategically incorporating high-volume training camps into my routine. By focusing on intense training sessions during these camps, I was able to maintain significant fitness improvements with more manageable weekly schedules, ultimately boosting my performance without the need for excessive daily volume. This approach has been a game-changer for me since 2009, and I'm excited to share my journey and insights with you. Listen in as I explore two distinct types of training camps designed to enhance athletic performance leading up to a race. Race-specific camps help athletes acclimate to the course and conditions, while volume training camps, often held in picturesque locations like Italy, Belgium, and Spain, focus on intensive cycling sessions to elevate fitness levels. Both types of camps strategically increase the overall training load and set a solid foundation for the rest of the training season. Additionally, I offer strategic race preparation tips and highlight resources from Endurance Nation, crafted to give competitors an edge in events like a half Ironman. Get ready to transform your training approach and enjoy a successful racing experience!

There's no better preparation for race day than another race but the key is understanding how to schedule your races so that it enhances your training rather than getting in the way.  We'll cover racing topics today that include: What separates a goal race from a tuneup race or other races in training How racing more can make you better prepared for your goal race How to pick the right race that fits in your training Whether you need to taper when racing in the middle of a training block How far apart your races should be from other races or hard workouts Why you might not want to give your full effort at every race If you want to know how to make racing a more regular part of your training routine then make sure you listen to today's show.

In this show, I break down and analyze comments from my recent interview with one of the greatest female middle distance runners in the world, the American record holder Shelby Houlihan. It was a pleasure to drive up to Flagstaff, Arizona to meet Shelby at her high altitude training camp as she prepares for her long awaited comeback after a ridiculous four year suspension for a very questionable doping violation. In our interview, which you can listen to here (or click below under "links"), we talked about the tragedy she experienced when she had her career taken from her right in the middle of her prime, right as she was getting ready for the Olympics—then having to sit for four years. You will learn about the nuances of how that whole incident went down and the injustice of the anti-doping system in the world of elite sports. Of course we have to keep these sports clean, but can there be room for some imperfections and some victims too? You will also hear about the many aspects of what it's like to be an elite athlete, how Shelby expanded her horizons and her competitive disposition to try to become a more well-balanced person by getting her master's degree in sports psychology, and much more. Shelby said such amazing, thoughtful comments during the interview, and I think so many of her comments are truly profound insights that will help you as you navigate the very difficult challenge of designing an optimal training program that balances stress and rest (and also keeping your ego in check) as you pursue ambitious competitive goals. These big picture insights are especially helpful now, as the biohacking scene is currently getting a little out of hand—focusing on a regimented, high-tech, glossy, glitzy approach towards pursuing longevity, instead of just covering the basics—and the Blue Zones movement is getting torched by The New York Times’ revelation of the manipulation behind their messaging and how they drew inaccurate conclusions from the data they gathered. It all comes down to basics and consistency, so this show will highlight important insights about Shelby’s approach, from details of her weekly training patterns to how she is deliberate about what she does to unwind and rest during the off competitive season, and how she generally balances the physiological impact training has on her body.

In this episode, my guest is Pavel Tsatsouline, a world-renowned strength and conditioning coach, former military special forces training instructor, author, and founder of StrongFirst—an online school focused on “low-tech, high-concept” training to build strength for men and women of all fitness levels. We discuss the most effective and efficient ways to build strength, endurance, and flexibility. We cover bodyweight-only, free-weight, and machine-based protocols and describe training splits and lesser-known but highly effective ways to train, especially for people with limited time. We also discuss local versus systemic nervous system and muscle recovery, how to complete training sessions with increased energy, why training to “failure” is not advised, optimal rest-between-sets protocols to improve performance, and how to vary effort levels across each week and month to ensure regular progress. This episode brings you highly practical, science-supported, and real-world-tested training methods to build strength, endurance, and flexibility from one of the world's top experts.

Can age group athletes really train like the pros without burning out? Join me, Coach Patrick from Endurance Nation, as we challenge conventional high-volume training methods and introduce intermittent volume strategies specifically designed for non-professional endurance athletes. Discover how balancing intensity with smart planning can lead to sustainable progress, race readiness, and prevent the crippling fatigue often associated with traditional training regimens. We'll break down common training pitfalls and demonstrate through illustrative charts how shorter, high-quality workouts alternated with occasional longer, low-intensity sessions can optimize efficiency and maintain momentum. Prepare to rethink your approach to endurance training as we explore various progressive strategies to incorporate throughout the year. We'll discuss the often overlooked mental and physiological challenges of sustained aerobic work and the vital role of nutrition and mental resilience. Learn how introducing variety and small indulgences, like a taste of Swedish fish or a sip of coke, can keep your training enjoyable and sustainable. Training shouldn't be relentlessly grueling—saving mental toughness for race day is key. We'll also reveal how these strategies can help identify potential weaknesses in your physical and equipment preparation, ensuring you're comprehensively equipped for success.

Invented by renowned physical therapist Jay Dicharry, MOBO helps you stabilize your stance with an innovative rocker board that's set up on two fins. The design effectively forces you to drive your big toe into the board to improve your stability. I was pretty arrogant going into my first session on the MOBO Board. How hard can it be to balance, right? Well, I was humbled pretty quickly! Even if you're a good runner, better balance, stability, and proprioception is going to help you have a more powerful stride and prevent more running injuries. You'll learn how to improve the efficiency of the kinetic chain from your hip to your big toe. Because as Jay likes to say, it's not just how strong you are, but how well you use that strength. I was recently at a weekend physical therapy workshop (lol I was the only running coach) and learned how important (and rare) this simple movement is.
