Progressive Overload and Gradualness

In this episode, I explore six underlying principles of training that all mountaineers need to consider in regards to their endurance training.

• The 6 core principles a mountaineer needs to follow for long term success in their endurance training
• The number one concept you need to follow to ensure continual improvement 
• Why a mountaineer needs to keep the end goal in mind with their training (and a number of mistakes i see mountaineers continually make with this)
• Why consistency trumps everything (plus a few common 'speed bumps' mountaineers will experience which will get in the way of this
• The importance of working on structural tolerance (and you need to respect the foundation building phases of your training and fitness
• Why mountaineers cannot train with the simplicity of a marathon runner or cyclist (and two areas you need to incorporate into your endurance training)
