#19 Mike James AKA TheEndurancePhysio - The importance of proper rest and recovery for runners!

Season 1 · Episode 19

Thursday, October 19, 2023 • Duration 01:23:22

Send us a text

We had a great chat with Mike James AKA TheEndurancePhysio about all things rest and recovery!

Key Moments:

Mike shares how rest is an active part of training, not something passive. It prepares you for upcoming sessions.
He explains why sleep is the #1 recovery tool, calling it a "superpower." Things like nutrition and appropriate training load are also fundamental.
We discuss how runners often gravitate toward "sexy" recovery tools like ice baths and massage guns before optimizing basics like sleep and nutrition.
Mike explains how he has mellowed on his anti-stretching stance over time, but still sees more benefit in strength work than static stretching.

Best Quotes:

"Recovery isn't just about getting over the sessions we've just done. It's actually preparing for the sessions we've got to come."
"Learn to be world class at the basics and stop trying to be basic at the world class."
"Sleep is your superpower."
"Runners need to spend so much more time asking why."

In an episode that tugs pretty hard on the heartstrings, Faye interviews Nick Hancock, founder and Head Coach at Maximum Mileage

Key Moments:

Nick talks about his wife Alyson's stage 4 cancer diagnosis and how they are trying to live life to the fullest, despite the challenges. Running continues to provide an important mental health outlet for Nick.
We learn how Nick went from being a running "geek" and improving his own race times, to deciding to become a running coach and start Maximum Mileage. He saw a need for better communication and service from coaches.

Ever wondered why there's such a vast range of coaching knowledge in the fitness industry? Our guest, Rick Prince, founder of United Endurance Sports Coaching Academy (UESCA), unwraps this mystery. With 20 years in the fitness industry and a strong grounding in kinesiology, Rick has experienced first-hand how the lack of regulation in the industry results in a broad spectrum of skills and knowledge.

You'll also get to meet the impressive team that Rick has assembled for the UESCA courses, including renowned experts like Jason Koop, Dr Justin Ross, Nell Rojas, Dr Matt Hansen, Dr Chris Myers, and Dr Corrine Malcolm. They uniquely blend a science-based approach with an openness to individual coaching needs, offering a well-rounded coaching education.

We will also discuss the advantages of having a Facebook Coaches Group and the importance of shared knowledge amongst coaches. Rick emphasizes the value a UESCA-certified coach brings and the benefits of being part of the UESCA coaches group.

Additionally and most importantly, we'll explore what it means to find the right coach for you, one who understands your unique needs, has the right knowledge and skills, and fits well with your personality.
