Download the free guide “5 Spells Every Composer Needs.” These spells are interval-based composition techniques that work like magic. In this guide, Frank explains five of his most-used spells with examples so you can implement them in your compositions right away. https://musicintervaltheory.academy/spells/ In this episode of The Music Interval Theory Podcast, Frank challenges the traditional view of the 12 musical intervals and introduces a fresh, practical approach for composers. By grouping intervals into just six core personalities — plus one wildcard tritone — you'll learn how to simplify your composing process and gain deeper control over tension, emotion, and movement in your music. This mindset shift helps you connect theory with real-world composing in a fun, intuitive way.
In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Denmark-based coach and hybrid athlete Andreas Stobberup to talk about bridging serious strength training with high-level endurance performance. Andreas shares his journey from peaking around 250 lbs with a 405 bench and 600+ squat to dropping to 205 and completing a full Ironman in 9:52—while continuing to coach athletes across disciplines. We discuss the reality gap between amateur and elite performance, how influencer culture often strips context from training advice, and why fundamentals still win: training, nutrition, sleep, and measurable outputs. We break down common misunderstandings around Zone 2 training, why pros don't train the way social media says they do, and how strength athletes can intelligently add conditioning without compromising lifting. We also cover VO₂ max development, microdosing cardio, output-based tracking (times, power, lactate), and how to think about HRV and wearable data in context. If you're interested in hybrid training, improving conditioning without sacrificing muscle, or understanding how to measure what actually matters, this one is packed with practical insight.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom podcast, host Stewart Alsop interviews John von Seggern, founder of Future Proof Music School, about the intersection of music education, technology, and artificial intelligence. They explore how musicians can develop timeless skills in an era of generative AI, the evolution of music production from classical notation to digital audio workstations like Ableton Live, and how AI is being used on the education side rather than for creation. The conversation covers music theory fundamentals, the development of instruments and recording technology throughout history, complex production techniques like sidechain compression, and the future of creative work in an AI-assisted world. John also discusses his development of Cadence, an AI voice tutor integrated with Ableton Live to help students learn music production.

Future-proofing musicians means teaching evergreen techniques while adapting to AI realities. John von Seggern founded Future Proof Music School to address both sides of music education in the AI era. Students learn timeless production skills that won't become obsolete as technology evolves, while simultaneously exploring meaningful creative goals in a world where generative AI exists. The school uses AI on the education side to help students learn, but students themselves aren't particularly interested in using generative AI for actual music creation, preferring to maintain their creative fingerprint on their work.2. The 12-note Western music system emerged from mathematical relationships discovered by Pythagoras and enabled collaborative music-making. Pythagoras demonstrated that pitch relates to vibrating string lengths, establishing mathematical ratios for musical intervals. This system allowed Western classical music to flourish because it could be notated and taught consistently, enabling large groups to play together. However, the piano is never perfectly in tune due to necessary compromises in the tuning system. By the 1920s, composers had explored most harmonic possibilities within this framework, leading to new directions in musical innovation.3. Recording technology fundamentally transformed music by making the studio itself the primary instrument. The invention of audio recording in the early-to-mid 20th century shifted music from purely instrumental composition to sound-based creation. This enabled entirely new genres like electronic dance music and hip-hop, which couldn't exist without technologies like synthesizers and samplers. Modern digital audio workstations like Ableton Live allow producers to have unlimited tracks and manipulate sounds in infinite ways, making any imaginable sound possible and moving innovation from hardware to software.4. Generative AI will likely replace generic music production but not visionary artists. John distinguishes between functional music (background music for films, work, or bars) and music where audiences deeply connect with the artist's vision. AI excels at generating functional music cheaply, which will benefit indie filmmakers and similar creators. However, artists with strong creative visions who audiences follow and identify with won't be replaced. The creative fingerprint and personal statement of important artists will remain valuable regardless of the tools they use, just as DJs created art through curation rather than original production.5. Copyright restrictions are limiting generative music AI's quality compared to other AI domains. Unlike books and visual art, recorded music copyrights are concentrated among a few companies that defend them aggressively. This prevents AI music models from training on the best music in each genre, resulting in lower-quality outputs. Some developers claim their private models trained on copyrighted music sound better than commercial offerings, but legal constraints prevent widespread access. This situation differs significantly from other creative domains where training data is more accessible.6. Modern music production involves complex technical skills like sidechain compression and multi-track mixing. Today's electronic music producers work with potentially hundreds of tracks, each with sophisticated processing. Techniques like sidechain compression allow certain elements (like kick drums) to dynamically reduce the volume of other elements (like bass), ensuring clarity in the final mix. Future Proof Music School teaches students these complex production techniques, with some aspiring producers creating incredibly detailed compositions with intricate effects chains and interdependent track relationships.7. Culture is fragmenting into micro-trends, making discovery rather than creation the primary challenge. John observes that while the era of mass media created mega-stars like The Beatles and Elvis, today's landscape features both enormous stars (like Taylor Swift) and an extremely long tail of creators making niche content. AI will make it easier for more people to create quality content, particularly in fields like independent filmmaking, but the real problem is discovery. Current algorithmic recommendations don't effectively surface hidden gems, suggesting a future where personal AI agents might better curate content based on individual preferences rather than platform-driven engagement metrics.
In this episode, Lou breaks her four-month silence to give a "no-filter" recap of her Ironman journey so far. Transitioning from a beginner to a long-distance triathlete is no joke, and while the swim might be the shortest leg of the race, it's proving to be the biggest mental hurdle. Lou shares her ego-bruising lessons on technique, the tools she wish she'd used sooner, and the pre-pool anxiety that almost kept her on the couch.The "Ironman Distance" reality check.The Math of a Triathlon: Why the swim is often the forgotten discipline.Lesson 1: Swallowing the ego and using swim tools (Paddles & Pull Buoys).Lesson 2: Intervals vs. Distance – Why "just swimming" isn't enough.Lesson 3: The Open Water Fear – Wetsuits, sighting, and toe-grabbing.Lesson 4: The Mental Game – Overcoming pre-swim procrastination and finding "flow."What's coming up next (The Bike).The Power of Tools: Don't let your ego stop you from using paddles (for hand positioning/catch) and pull buoys (for hip buoyancy). They are shortcuts to better form, not "cheating."Structure Over Volume: Simply grinding out lengths is great for the soul but bad for the clock. Break sessions into intervals to maintain technique and build actual speed.The "Blue Line" Trap: Pool swimming doesn't prepare you for the variables of open water. Practice sighting and getting comfortable in a wetsuit to avoid race-day surprises like chafing or shoulder fatigue.The 60-Minute Mental Wall: Swimming is the ultimate "unplugged" sport. While the pre-swim anxiety is real, pushing through to find a flow state is where the magic happens."I've never known procrastination like it... but once I'm in the pool and I find flow state, it's the most magical thing."Follow the Journey: https://www.instagram.com/theexerciseengineer/www.youtube.com/@theexerciseengineerBuy My Trisuit: https://www.sub4custom.com/shop/the-exercise-engineer/the-exercise-engineer/ Next Episode: Stay tuned for the deep dive into the Bike leg!

VO₂ max training isn't about running harder, it's about running at the right speed or you're just wearing yourself down for nothing.If you've been doing “hard” interval sessions but still aren't getting faster in your 5K, 10K, or marathon, you might be missing the real point of VO₂ max training—and wasting effort. In this episode, I break down exactly what true VO₂ max pace feels and looks like, why most runners get it wrong (even when they think they're pushing hard), and how to dial in the right speed using free tools and recent race data—so your intervals finally deliver results without burning you out.Key TakeawaysTrue VO2 max training is about hitting a specific, fast pace, not just getting your heart rate into a certain zone. Using pace is the only way to guarantee you trigger the right adaptations.You must base your workout speeds on what you can run right now, not what you wish you could run. Using a goal pace that's too fast will ruin your workout and your progress.The magic happens in efforts under 5 minutes. Going longer lets lactic acid build up too much, which changes the entire purpose of the workout from improving VO2 max to just surviving.Timestamps[00:25] What You'll Learn[01:20] Vo2 Max Pace vs Vo2 Max Heart Rate[05:36] Use This to Improve Your Vo2 Max[06:22] How to Find Your Actual Vo2Max Pace[09:20] The Two Pacing Mistakes[11:09] Vo2 Max Myths Busted[13:40] Go Deeper on Vo2 Max with ThisLinks & Learnings

4x4 intervals are the most overrated workout in running, and continuing to do them could be the very thing stopping you from breaking your personal record.You've probably heard about 4x4 intervals for boosting VO2 max, but are they really the best way to get faster? In this episode, I break down the real science behind VO2 max training and explain why the 4x4 method might be holding you back. I'll explore why this popular workout often fails both new and experienced runners and, more importantly, I'll share proven, alternative interval workouts that are just as good—if not better. You'll learn the fundamentals of how this training works and get a clear plan on how to structure these workouts to build speed and endurance safely.Key TakeawaysFour-by-four intervals aren't the gold standard they're made out to be—they're often too hard for beginners and too short for experienced runners to maximize VO₂ max gains.There are smarter, research-backed VO₂ max workouts—like 30/30s, 12 x 400m, 6 x 3 minutes, and 4 x 5 minutes—that match different experience levels and race goals better.Time spent actually at VO₂ max matters more than the workout name—shorter recoveries and properly paced efforts can give you more quality minutes near your true aerobic ceiling.Timestamps[00:17] What You'll Learn[00:59] What Are 4x4 Intervals?[02:00] Why Are They So Popular?[03:08] 4 Reasons Why 4x4 Intervals Are Overrated[05:39] Free Improve Your Vo2Max Guide[06:02] The 4 Better Vo2 Max Workouts[06:37] Option 1: 30/30 Protocol (Billat Method) - For Variety Speed demons[09:20] Option 2: 12x400m - For All Levels (Especially Speedy Folks That Like To Go Fast)[12:12] Help Another Runner Out[12:26] Option 3: 6x3 Minutes - For Intermediate Runners[13:04] Option 4: 4x5 Minutes (Jack Daniels Method) - For Experienced Runners[15:35] How To Fit This In Your Schedule[16:28] Learn About Vo2 Max First Before You Train ItLinks & Learnings

Roger Rosmus, Founder, CEO, & Director of Goliath Resources (TSX.V: GOT) (OTCQB: GOTRF), joined me to review the next batch of high-grade drill assay results from its 64,000 meter 9-rig 2025 drill program; as outlined in the news released on October 27th, 2025. Headline drill hole # GD-25-372 intersected 10.72 g/t Au over 7.83 meters, including 20.37 g/t Au over 4.10 meters at the Surebet Discovery on its 100% controlled Golddigger Property, located in the Golden Triangle, British Columbia. 100% of the drill holes completed to date into Surebet have intersected substantial quartz-sulphide mineralization, highlighting the effectiveness of the geological model that the team incorporated coming into this year's exploration program. Approximately 76%, or 83 of the 110 drill holes from 2025, contain gold visible to the naked eye (VG-NE); clearly demonstrating the discovery potential remaining on the property. The intercepts reported in the are approximately true width and reflect gold only assays (AuEq values will be adjusted accordingly once Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn are received). Assays are still pending for 84 holes from this years drilling, of which 66 representing 79% contain VG-NE. Roger provides more detail on the drill density and continuity of the high-grade zone that is coming into focus in the Bonanza Shear Zone, where the sediment rock packages contact the volcanic rock packages, and the better overall geological understanding that is emerging at the Surebet discovery. There are now gold results coming in from three distinct rock packages (quartz-sulphide breccias/stockwork, RIRG Eocene-aged dykes, and calc-silicate altered breccia) showing the untapped discovery potential at this remarkable high-grade gold system that remains open in this mineralized system. Next we reviewed the news released on October 23, 2025 which announced the Company has closed its previously announced "bought deal" private placement offering for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$26.3 million with no warrants at a higher share price than where things are trading at present. The Offering was comprised of the issue and sale of: (i) 1,977,157 common shares at a price of C$4.20 per National Flow-Through Share for gross proceeds of approximately C$8.3 million; and (ii) 4,054,054 common shares of the Company at a price of C$4.44 per BC Flow-Through Share for gross proceeds of approximately C$18 million. This has the company in a strong financial position and fully-funded for its 2026 exploration program Assays are still pending for 84 holes from this years drilling, of which 66 representing 79% contain VG-NE, so there will be a flood of assays that continue to come in from this year's exploration season for several more months into the future; without a financing overhang.

I made a promise...and I don't wanna talk about it.
Do you ever wonder why you're doing a certain workout, not just how? This week Coach Matt Sommer joins the podcast to break down some of the most effective bike workouts to help you train smarter, not just harder. We are tackling short and hard bike sessions: 30-30s, 30-90s, Power Builders, Power Intervals, stamina, and more! Coach Matt explains the purpose behind each workout, what systems of the body they target, and how to execute them for maximum benefit. Whether you're aiming to finish the workout or are hunting for the elusive "unicorn," understanding the why behind your TriDot workout might be the edge you've been missing.
First, it's a very personal episode. Mayhap too personal. I've been spending alot more of my time in the present lately...actually, I've been doing that for awhile now. It's not that I didn't care about my past or the way my actions have shaped me...but, you get it, right? Why dawdle in the past when there's so much goodness in the future...or at least, the possibility for goodness? Entropy's a bitch man, but it will not be denied. Might as well greet it with acceptance and hope. So there's that...it's a very personal episode. In a weird way, it's where this 20 year old podcast has been going all along...to episode 388. And that's the other thing, in a way...this is also a celebration of 20 years of my podcasting. Now...I'll be honest with you...because what would be the point of dishonesty? 20 years is meaningless....I mean in a quantifiable way. It's a tick on the clock. It's only 31% of my lifespan thus far. Fellow runners have been with me for almost a third of my life....but, THAT's not a big deal. What is a big deal is that we got to spend any time together at all. That's what I'm celebrating. It's an anniversary, sure....but the word "anniversary" comes from the latin "annus versus" - year turning....and that's led to the latin term "anniversarius" meaning returning yearly. Returning to what exactly? I'm looking forward...but okay, let's acknowledge the past. Hi there past, you're looking...thinner. Well, it's been nice catching up, gotta run. I've always found the image and characteristics of the ouroboros disturbing. A serpent that eats it's own tail, a snake that consumes itself. That can't end well. But in a way this episode, the 20th anniversarius of Phedippidations does go back to the very beginning...maybe you can think of it as getting back to where I started, or even better: a new start away from the past. I don't know, just call it a new take on an oldy by a goody? Or...if that doesn't work how about: Let's reboot the baby. But of course that implies we've already given the baby the boot...we're just doing it again. Other things you should know: I started writing this episode back on March 23rd, of this year, 2025...at exactly 1:42 in the afternoon. So...I took my time on this one. 222 days exactly....that's 7 months 8 days. Yeah, I wasn't in a rush to get this out. I'm not into numerology or anything magical like that, but the fact that I did borrow the final audio from episode 222 of this goofy little podcast is a surious correlation: and those are cool. As to why I didn't get this out, well...I was doing other stuff. I was otherwise occupied...and as the weeks went on, I wasn't sure that I'd actually ever find the time to finish writing, recording and "oh MY holy invisible flying spaggetti monster in space" actually editing this thing. But I found some inspiration and time. So, on Friday October 31st at noon eastern time...there will be a new episode for you to listen to. Or not. You're call. It doesn't really matter anymore. Maybe you'll listen, maybe not, maybe you'll like it, or maybe you'll barely get through the first 3 minutes...that's completely up to you. I won't be offended either way. I don't know if anyone's listening to this anyway. I really don't, and I really don't care that much. I made this more for myself than anyone else, but if you want to check it out: great...I guess...and like I said, if you don't...well that's great too.

Muscle Tension Intervals are those big gear, low cadence masher that are like lifting weights on the bike. You can do them in the CoachCat app → https://fascatcoaching.com/app where the first month is free. The problem? Not everyone has access to a steady 3–5% climb like we do here in Boulder. That's where Zwift comes in. In this video, Coach Frank walks you through two ways to perform Muscle Tension Intervals on Zwift: 1️⃣ Exporting your workout into ERG mode and using the Incline setting in the Companion app. 2️⃣ Riding free-form in the Climb Portal and simulation riding uphill for work intervals, then turning around and coasting downhill for recovery. Additionally, you'll learn how torque (force on the pedals) connects to power, and why these intervals build the kind of strength that pays off when you combine it with higher cadence later in the season.
Do you ever wonder why you're doing a certain workout, not just how? This week Vanessa Ronksley and Coach Ryan Tibball break down some of the most effective run workouts to help you train smarter, not just harder. We are starting with quality run sessions. Ryan and Vanessa dig into MAV Shuttles, Fartleks, Intervals, Threshold Repeats, and more! Explaining the purpose behind each workout, what systems of the body they target, and how to execute them for maximum benefit. Whether you're aiming to finish the workout or are hunting for the elusive running "unicorn," understanding the why behind your TriDot workout might be the edge you've been missing.
In episode 253 of the Beginner Guitar Academy Podcast, Paul Andrews explores the powerful—yet often overlooked—concept of musical intervals. Whether you're new to the guitar or looking to improve your musicianship, understanding intervals can unlock a deeper grasp of the fretboard, sharpen your ear, accelerate your learning, and even provide inspiration for songwriting. Paul breaks down what intervals are, explains why they matter, shares practical tips for practicing them, and wraps up with a mini ear-training test.What's Covered in This EpisodeAnnouncements for BGA MembersUpcoming live Q&A on Monday, September 29th (details on times and how to join or submit questions in advance).Introduction of 30-minute private guitar lessons exclusively for members ($40 per lesson). Booking details in the community/news section.Reminder: Unlimited access to Paul via private video exchange, audio, or text—the new lessons are just an extra option in response to member requests.Musical Intervals DemystifiedWhat is an interval?Simply put, it's the distance between two notes. Paul demonstrates intervals using open strings and fretted notes, explaining the basic concepts of half steps and whole steps on guitar.Intervals in the Major Scale:Using the C major scale, Paul explains “major second,” “major third,” “perfect fourth,” “perfect fifth,” “major sixth,” “major seventh,” and the “octave.”Fun trivia: The term “perfect” dates back to medieval times, referring to intervals considered stable and sacred.Why are intervals important?Ear Training: Recognize famous riffs and melodies (e.g., “Smoke on the Water” – minor third, “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” – perfect fifth).Building Blocks: Chords and scales are literally made by stacking intervals.Improvisation & Songwriting: Intervals guide you on which notes work well together.Practical Ways to Practice IntervalsPlay and SingPlay intervals on your guitar and try singing them—don't worry about vocal ability; the goal is to internalise the sounds.Use Songs as ReferenceMajor Second – “Happy Birthday”Major Third – “When the Saints Go Marching In”Perfect Fourth – “Here Comes the Bride”Perfect Fifth – “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” or the “Star Wars” themeMajor Sixth – “My Way” (Frank Sinatra)Major Seventh – “Take On Me” (a-ha)Octave – “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”Ear Training Apps and ResourcesApps: MusicTheory.net (free web exercises and the Tenuto app), Earmaster (BGA discount available in the resource section).BGA Members: Leverage the ‘Improve Your Ear' course with tailored exercises.Start SmallBegin with just a couple of intervals—like the major second and octave, which have a clear contrast—and add more as you progress.Ear Training TestPaul conducts a quick ear training test focusing on major seconds, perfect fifths, and octaves to help listeners start recognising these intervals.Key TakeawaysLearning intervals isn't just “theory”—it's a real-world tool for mastering the guitar.Consistent practice is key: make interval ear training a regular part of your routine to permanently develop your musical ear.Use song references, simple exercises, and helpful apps to make training enjoyable and effective.Support &...

As a TriDot Triathlon Coach, I've seen firsthand how predictive analytics can transform training outcomes. Today, we'll break down the development, race-specific, and taper phases of training, explore the importance of strength and mobility, and give you actionable tips for race rehearsals, race week workouts, and pacing strategies across different race distances. Let's get into it!” Training Phases with RunDot Development Phase (April) “This is where the foundation is built. The development phase focuses on aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, and overall durability. RunDot uses your biometric and performance data to personalize your training load—so you're not just following a generic plan, you're following your plan. Expect to see: Zone 2 endurance runs to build aerobic efficiency. Hill repeats and strides to improve strength and form. Aerobic intervals that challenge your cardiovascular system without overloading it. This phase is also where strength and mobility work are critical. Think squats, lunges, planks, and dynamic mobility drills. These movements help prevent injury and improve your running economy.” Race-Specific Phase (Lauren) “Now we shift gears. The race-specific phase is all about sharpening your race pace and simulating race conditions. RunDot adjusts your workouts based on your predicted race performance, so you're training at the right intensity. Key workouts include: Tempo runs to dial in your race pace. Long runs with race pace segments to simulate race fatigue. Intervals that mimic the demands of your target race. This is also the time for race rehearsals. Practice everything—your gear, your nutrition, your hydration strategy. If you're racing trails, get on technical terrain. If it's a road race, practice on similar surfaces and elevation profiles.” Taper Phase (Rich) “The taper phase is where the magic happens. You're reducing volume to shed fatigue while maintaining intensity to stay sharp. RunDot's predictive engine ensures you're not tapering too much or too little. During taper: Keep intensity with short intervals and strides. Reduce volume gradually. Focus on mental preparation—visualize your race, review your pacing strategy, and trust your training.” Strength & Mobility: The Unsung Heroes (Lauren) “Strength and mobility work aren't optional—they're essential. They: Prevent overuse injuries. Improve running efficiency. Enhance power and stride mechanics. RunDot integrates strength sessions based on your recovery status and training load. So if you're feeling fatigued, it'll dial back the intensity. If you're fresh, it'll push you a bit more.” Race Week Workouts & Shakeout Runs (April) “Race week is all about staying loose and confident. Here's a sample structure: Monday–Wednesday: Easy runs with strides, light strength work. Thursday–Friday: Short intervals or race pace efforts—30 to 60 seconds. Saturday: Shakeout run—15 to 20 minutes easy with a few strides. Sunday: Race day! Shakeout runs help reduce anxiety, loosen up your muscles, and reinforce your rhythm and cadence.” Race Pacing Tips by Distance 5K - Rich Go out strong but controlled. Settle into pace by the first mile. Finish with a kick. Use strides and short intervals in taper week to stay sharp. 10K - Lauren Controlled first half, push the second half. Practice pacing in race-specific workouts. Don't go out too fast—let your fitness shine in the back half. Half Marathon - April Aim for even pacing or a slight negative split. Long runs with race pace segments are key. Fuel early and consistently. Full Marathon - Rich Start conservatively—don't chase pace early. Stay steady through the middle miles. Prepare mentally for the final 10K. Practice fueling during long runs to avoid bonking. Trail vs Road Racing - Lauren Trail: Focus on effort over pace. Practice technical terrain and elevation changes. Road: Dial in cadence and pacing. Use flat intervals to simulate race conditions. Closing Thoughts - Rich “RunDot by Predictive Fitness is a game-changer. It takes the guesswork out of training and helps you peak at the right time. Whether you're chasing a PR or finishing your first race, trust the process, stay consistent, and enjoy the journey. Get Gritty Tip: What's Your Success Criteria? One of the biggest mindset traps athletes (and high achievers in general) fall into is measuring success by what hasn't been accomplished yet—what Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy call living in “the gap.” The way out is creating a Success Criteria List, which shifts your focus from what's missing to what's meaningful. Here's the challenge: Write down three to five criteria that define success for YOU—right now, in this season. Make them simple, tangible, and personal. For example: I'm successful when I show up consistently for my workouts. I'm successful when I recover well and prioritize sleep. I'm successful when I enjoy at least one workout each week with friends or teammates. Notice how none of these depend on a finish time or podium. Instead, they anchor you in daily wins that compound over time. When you measure against your own list, you gain confidence, resilience, and perspective—no matter what the scoreboard says. Action Item: Take five minutes today to craft your own Success Criteria List. Post it where you'll see it daily—on your fridge, in your training log, or on your phone. Each time you check off a criteria, you're stacking wins. Over time, this list becomes your proof that you're already making progress—and that you're firmly in “the gain.” TriDot Workout of the Week: Stamina Ride Speaking of putting in the work, April, this week's featured workout is the Long Ride, or Stamina Ride. This workout goes out to Caroline and Stephanie who are getting ready to do the Boulder Century on September 7th. We're rooting for you. I also did my own version of this on Monday, and drove out to Canon City, Colorado and road some incredible trails including the aptly named Shiv, Redemption. And the Great Escape trails. It was as great as a mental challenge as it was physical, which is why the Stamina Ride is so important. You'll start with a warmup: 10 minutes in Zone 2 with 3 x 30-second spinups and 3 x 1-minute efforts in Zone 4. Then the main set—3 x 12 minutes at Zone 4 with 5 minutes recovery, 1 x 10 minutes at Zone 2, and 10 x 10 minutes at Zone 3 with 2 minutes recovery. Keep all recoveries and balance of time in Zone 2. Here's the key—when you're in those longer stamina sessions, stay in your race position as if you're racing. Sit up to stretch if you need, then get back down and dial in. Keep your cadence steady: Zone 2 and 3 efforts at 90+ rpm, Zone 4 efforts at 80 rpm. And remember—aim to make the last repeat as strong as the first. What do you think about the Stamina ride, Rich? Anything else to add? What I really love about this stamina ride is how it mimics the demands of long-course racing. Those multiple 10-minute Zone 3 pushes let you sit right on that edge—where it's uncomfortable, but still sustainable—just like in a 70.3, full IRONMAN, or Century Ride. You're teaching your body and mind how to hold strong at race effort, manage the discomfort, and then back off just enough to go the distance. This one showed up for me last week, and I also have a century ride this weekend. It's the perfect prep to build the resilience you need for long days in the saddle. Now, workouts like the Stamina Ride teach us grit, focus, and the ability to stay locked in for the long haul. But triathlon isn't just about the grind—it's also about enjoying the ride, laughing a little, and not taking ourselves too seriously. That's why we've got a fun segment lined up next!
