About this episode
Triathlon can seem like a recipe for aches and pains, but is it the sport or something else you're doing? Today, we look at active healing and moving therapy. We also look at why your metrics may be holding you back and look at the powerful logic of racing without your watch. There's nothing better than "controlling" your race and being one with the energy. Fatigue, volume, pain, living on the edge of injury and racing free. It's all here. Topics: Race Tracking is back!! Emoji Etiquette Being on the edge of injury Are we ever 100%? IT Band Syndrome The mystery of shoulder pain Movement therapy When a week off feels like forever Shit catches up with us . . . Work your way backwards to figure out the real problem How did I get into this situation? Active recovery, healing and the taper analogy Run warm up . . . Fatigue/volume/pain "I didn't feel good at first" The first 2-400 meters of the swim Running off the bike Reminding yourself what racing feels like No bike computer in your race? Racing without a watch… Controlling your race Too many metrics? Your watch is like a backseat driver --------------- Coach Mike is accepting full-time athletes.
