Initial Brain Dump
- First learned about it from reading rich rolls book
- Blood lactate threshold test

- (Put in Chris's email here)
- Link to Rich Roll pod cast with Chris Hauth
- Link to Ben Greenfield pod cast with Rich Roll
- Mitocrondrial density
- 80% of training should be done in Zone 2
- Trains your aerobic system
- Burns fat for energy very efficiently
- Will most likely start with you doing what will feel like very very slow workouts
- Most people train in their race pace(zone 3). This will result in marginal gains
- Resist the urge to push your self.
- I listen to audio books as a way to calm the urge to go fast
- I have listened to many many audio books and podcasts
- Pairs well with periodization
- Some times you need to go slow to go fast
- You get very lean doing this
- Your body gets very efficient at burning fat for energy but also gets efficient at storing fat
- This approach pairs very well with periodization.
- You do your growing when you are resting, so after a block of 3 weeks of increasing volume decrease the volume to recovery.
- Very very time consuming compared to others approaches
- Results in less injury.
- When running you should be able to speak to someone
