The Roadman Cycling Podcast Intensity Unpacked: A Deep Dive into Polarized Training
In this episode Anthony talks with the renowned exercise physiologist, Dr. Stephen Seiler. Dr. Seiler has reshaped our understanding of effective training methodologies through his pivotal research on the polarized training model. His insights have influenced a wide array of endurance sports, from cycling and rowing to cross-country skiing and running, making him a revered figure in the international sports science community.
Dr. Seiler demystifies the concept of polarized training, a model that emphasizes the strategic distribution of training intensities and a model that Anthony has used for his coaching clients for years, so Anthony really gets to the bottom of using this tool to optimize performance for both professional athletes and time-crunched amateurs.
Dr. Seiler shares his expert perspective on the critical levers of intensity, duration, and frequency, offering listeners a masterclass in tailoring their training to achieve maximum efficiency and results.
