#900 – Understanding Your Fatigue

from Crushing Iron Triathlon Podcast · host Michael Tarrolly

Today we get into understanding fatigue and what it means. Is it in your head or your body? Lungs or legs? It all matters and it's important for you to be able to recognize and adjust so that you can get the most out of your sessions or simply get off the couch. We look at different signs in swimming, cycling, and running that show fatigue and sort of look at the "seriousness" of each and how to roll right through it. Topics: Triathlete Tattoos Gross pics sent to coaches Reading books or faking it? Post-holiday fatigue Longer Zone 2 rides and runs Why do you feel better deeper into the workout? Swimming to test fatigue safely Too much focus on "times" Stress is stress Adapting to the sessions What is weighing you down? Run Camp as a science "lab" Don't let the numbers affect your day Red Zone of fatigue Feeling "off" Why to be a fan of HR Bike approaches to working through fatigue High power/Low HR means system is firing Does it feel like a fight? Is it your legs or lungs? Stacking days and getting the right stimulus Can't put a finger on it Rebalancing "the off" feeling How do you feel meeting the intent of the session Restaurant picking strategy for your family [email protected] [email protected]
