#360 - Positive Reinforcement Therapy

How are you talking to yourself these days? Does the body buy in with the mind's strategy? Today, we continue to look at the positive and what's going on in our own backyards. We talk about the accumulated fatigue of life, the future of endurance sports, having a true understanding of Zone 2 (and why it's so important), heart rate comparison between cycling and running, when and how to test heart rate and FTP, and most importantly, are you enjoying yourself?  Topics: Looking in our own back yard Positive thinking A common human thread Optimism and Realism Who has nothing to gain?
