Episode notes

If you are not able to extend that exhale on the carbon di dioxide tolerance test pass 60 seconds or so, your stress system is chronically elevated. There are ways that you can accelerate covery, but i would encourage you to listen to the previous episode for how to assess recovery. How often to programme these things will depend on the other things you're doing. I think it's perfectly reasonable to do this type of training with other types of training. And i'll talk about a variety of combinations of those toward the end of the episode.

This episode I discuss endurance: our ability to perform effort over extended amounts of time. I describe the four kinds of endurance: muscular endurance, long duration (single-set) efforts, and the two kinds of high intensity interval training (HIIT). I discuss efficiency of effort and maximizing quality of effort, and a hydration formula. I review how our heart literally gets stronger when we oxygenate muscles properly. I also discuss motivation for long bouts of work and the visual physiological basis of the "extra gear" we all can leverage for effort. Finally, I review how accelerating as we fatigue can allow us to access untapped energetic resources.
