Measuring Stamina to Help you Build Endurance

Season 1 · Episode 4

Friday, August 23, 2024 • Duration 12:25

In this episode, Nathan discusses the difference between stamina and endurance and how they relate to running. Stamina is a prolonged activity with a higher output, while endurance is simply a prolonged activity. Nathan explains that stamina is a measurement of fatigue resistance and can be used to determine what power output you can hold after doing work. He also shares three ways to build stamina: longer long runs, long runs with a higher output, and longer sub-threshold sessions. Nathan emphasizes the importance of tracking stamina for longer distance races and offers his expertise to help runners improve their stamina. Takeaways

Using Data to Monitor Training for Marathon Runners

Wednesday, August 14, 2024 • Duration 17:17

In this episode, Nathan discusses the importance of monitoring training and shares protocols and metrics to determine if training is effective. He focuses on two main topics: performance and load management. The power duration curve is a key tool for performance monitoring, as it shows an athlete's maximum efforts for different durations. It helps personalize intervals and track progress. Load management is crucial for avoiding overtraining and injury. Nathan explains various metrics, including training stress score (TSS), chronic training load (CTL), acute training load (ATL), and training impact score (TIS). These metrics help determine the right amount of work for each individual. Takeaways

Integrating Data into your Training and Racing

Season 1 · Episode 2

Tuesday, August 6, 2024 • Duration 19:24

He emphasizes that data is not a training plan in itself, but rather a tool to measure what's working and what's not in your training plan. Nathan outlines six steps to integrating data into your plan: working out your threshold power, converting your training plan into power using intensity, building out your base period, lifting your threshold during the build period, building stamina, and creating a race strategy. He emphasizes the importance of evaluating your race strategy and using data to inform future training. Takeaways
