E67: Rest Periods: The Most Overlooked Training Variable

from Paint The Edges

Mac and Thayer dive into the often-overlooked role of rest periods in training and why they matter more than most people realize. They explore how rest intervals can be used as a diagnostic tool to manage fatigue, understand energy system demands, and balance intensity with recoverability. The conversation challenges coaches and athletes to be more intentional with rest in order to improve performance, sustainability, and overall training effectiveness. https://www.instagram.com/coachjamesmac/ https://www.instagram.com/thayer2513/ LAST CHANCE to register for this cohort of PSL1.
