Zone 2 FAQ with Scott Johnston

Scott's first appearance was our most popular episode of 2022, so we're kicking off 2023 by bringing him back to answer your most frequently asked questions about Zone 2 training! This conversation covers everything from how to implement it in group training settings to incorporating rucking and low impact modalities. It's one more step in our mission to #MakeEnduranceGreatAgain. Scott is an accomplished endurance athlete in his own right, and his coaching resume includes everything from elite special operators to Olympians. Of particular note, there's a big update since our last episode: he has launched Evoke Endurance! You can find out more at https://evokeendurance.com/ Towards the end of the episode we briefly discuss how recovery tracking devices can have a placebo effect on performance, whether or not they're accurate. The paper mentioned is available here, and it finds that not only is there an effect, but the placebo is stronger than self reported experience: https://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/features/xlm-a0035546.pdf
