215. Different Energy Systems for Different Distances in Running
from Marathon Running Podcast by Marathon Journal
On this episode of the Marathon Running Podcast, we learn about the aerobic and anaerobic systems. We dive into the interplay between the ATP-PC and oxidative systems, how these systems work together to fuel long-distance running efforts, and the importance of running economy and efficiency. We also discuss the importance of speedtraining for marathoners, effective workout strategies for building a strong aerobic base, and specific workouts to maximize both the ATP-PC and oxidative systems. Additionally, we explore training periodization, race-specifictraining, and the role of factors like race day strategy, mental preparation, nutrition, hydration, and sleep hygiene in optimizing marathon performance.By understanding and effectively training both the aerobic and anaerobic systems, runners can enhance their performance and achieve their marathon goals.This episode is sponsored by TIFOSI OPTICS: Use our 20% off code “MRP20” or use this link: https://tifosioptics.com/discount/MRP20 Support our podcast and check out our RunSwag Tshirts· Our website: www.marathonrunningpodcast.com· Our Instagram: @runningpodcast· Our Amazon Storefront: AmazonStorefront· Join our Facebook group: SpeedStridersFacebook Group· Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@RunningPodcast Theme Song:––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Night Out by LiQWYD / liqwyd Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0 Free Download / Stream: https://www.audiolibrary.com.co/liqwyd/night-out Music promoted by Audio Library • Night Out – LiQWYD (No Copyright Music) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tut9O8uaJho&t=13s ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
