<p class="p1">Stuck in the same gear? Not happy with your race speed? It might mean you need more work on being responsive. How do you build another gear? Glad you asked. Today, we get into why triathletes often feel stuck at the same speed and how to break the cycle. We look at swimming, biking, and running and give some thought on how to create more of a range, especially when you need it. Going fast can feel good and fun, but sometimes our Zone 4 effort equals our Zone 2 speed in a race. Today, we look at solid and proven ways to break out of being a one-speed wonder, but note, it's not always easy.</p> <p class="p1"><strong>Topics:</strong></p> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1">Last week on C26</li> <li class="li1">Coming at you consistently</li> <li class="li1">We're the podcast version of an age-grouper that outlasts everyone to qualify for Kona</li> <li class="li1">New Orleans 70.3 memories</li> <li class="li1">Swim rant?</li> <li class="li1">One speed wonders</li> <li class="li1">Turnover vs. Stroke length in swimming</li> <li class="li1">Natural cadence vs. being uncomfortable</li> <li class="li1">Hill sprints</li> <li class="li1">Something needs to be a priority</li> <li class="li1">Increasing FTP vs. Losing weight</li> <li class="li1">Swimming more or strength work?</li> <li class="li1">Trying to change everything at once</li> <li class="li1">Focus on one thing</li> <li class="li1">Swim form</li> <li class="li1">Hard 25's and 50's</li> <li class="li1">What about your base?</li> <li class="li1">Not thinking in the water</li> <li class="li1">Building another gear</li> <li class="li1">Being Responsive</li> <li class="li1">One speed</li> <li class="li1">Without ranges we tend to not be present</li> <li class="li1">RPE - Bodymind</li> <li class="li1">Fitness vs. Form</li> <li class="li1">We can't skip steps</li> <li class="li1">Focus on moving correctly</li> <li class="li1">When Zone 4 effort equals Zone 2 speed</li> </ul> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p3"><span class="s2">Mike Tarrolly - <a href= "mailto:
