Start: What’s New – Tom’s Ultra Marathon Experience 

25 Minutes: Topic of Podcast 

In this week’s podcast, we discuss training techniques that can help you prepare for an ultra marathon. This podcast was inspired by Tom’s recent ultra marathon, in which he ran 50 kilometers in 10 hours.

We touch on topics such as long, steady state cardio sessions to increase your lactate threshold, high intensity interval training to increase your V02 max, as well as proper weight training techniques to fully maximize your weight lifting session to become as strong as possible.

We’ll continue the conversation next week and touch on recovery techniques as well as the proper nutrition to optimize your performance on race day.
