And you, have you never heard of swimming pool rules that prohibit people with open wounds from entering a pool?
Anyway, can somebody answer the question without obnoxious responses such as wait, what's?
Oh, you don't know what constitutes an open wound in addition to not knowing about chlorine.
I bet it'd really blow your mind to learn that females swim, too, huh?
Here is a chance to show progress in this thread. Yes, I - speaking for myself - am aware that females swim. Those that are menstruating have recourse to products that limit the flow of blood into the water. Were you not so insistent on unhelpful ripostes, perhaps you could show how swimmers who measure blood lactate do so without violating pool rules or endangering others. Do they take measures the way a menstruating swimmer might?
“Good athletes are going to run well when they believe in the system in which they’re training and they’re healthy and ready to go on race day,” Rosario says. “There’s no magic bullet. There never was and there never will be. You can see that with Ingebrigtsen vs. Wightman. They train very differently and yet they’re the two best in the world.”
The only magic bullet is consistency
And what is "consistency"?
Defined as: Carrying out something the same way, or something staying the same as it's achieved in a particular way.
I think DT workouts are needed in every training program. To be able to adequately stress your system more often over a longer period of time with less recovery is the "magic bullet. People use to say the same thing about running double days, but here we are with most elite runners running double days. The body can and will adapt accordingly if the workouts are conducted in a well designed training program. This is where a good coach earns his/her money. A huge factor is the post workout(s) recovery which include rest, diet, hydration, and body work to flush out unnecessary lactate waste from the muscles. Some athletes do this more efficiently than others, the key is to find that "sweet spot" in your training and run with it (no pun). The more "consistent" you can be without prolonged periods of down time (injury, sickness, etc...) the better you'll be.
"Smith, who learned about the system by reading Bakken’s old blog posts from the early 2000s, was one of the first to bring it to North America, taking advantage of the flexible schedule afforded by virtual classes during the COVID pandemic to introduce it at NAU during the 2020-21 school year. Now, more and more coaches are incorporating its principles."
How much of an academic workload did NAU athletes have before?
They call it “the Harvard of the Big Sky”
SIR! North, South, East or West, there is only one Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaavvvvvvuuuuuuudddddd!!!!
Runner10287 wroteLook up Frank Shorters training. That’s your typical training of the 70s.
Frank Shorter ran about 150 miles a week, missed almost no days, did a lot of running that was really fast with short recoveries, and very rarely got injured. If you can do that for at least five to ten years, you will be faster than any of the people who are lying in their beds writing on their computers about double-threshold workouts or any other tiny twists on an old recipe.
And if you have spent half an hour reading or writing about any of this stuff today, you are already at least five miles behind after one single day.
Yet another article posting the same old schedule, now with a new wrinkle... Maybe they do more threshold after their hills on Saturday?
My question is, do we really think they've been following the EXACT same schedule for like 10 years now?
I think the best trick they ever pulled was releasing this one schedule, that everyone has adopted as gospel. No one questions what they're doing because we "know" we've got the schedule. I'm curious how its changed, and we need a mole in their camp to give us more details on the pre comp and competition phase of their training.

How do we know this article is even accurate? I’ve heard they’re closer to 2.5 mmmol on the AM session. I’ve also heard that it’s: Tuesday 5x6 mins AM and 12x1k PM. Thursday 5x6 moms AM and 25x400 PM. Saturday 2x10x200m hills AM and 6x1k very easy PM (like 3:20 per k which is surely below 2.0 mmol). I’ve also head Jakob has never run more than 70 minutes for his long run.

That's Bakken's program. The ingebritsens have carried out some slight modifications since then but have not really explained them (alluded to in interviews), but the original document that everyone should refer to is Bakken's long blog post.
Soon everyone has forgotten the double threshold and start to talk about single threshold instead and the fantastic Dancan system by the Magic Wizard JS coach. Today his coached 1500m runner since two months back ran a new PB 3;32;48 in the Kenya nationals final. Former PB 3:39 before the magic man took over. How does he do it !? Brojos, it`s really time we get a big interview with the magic Swede!
there is a article out there somewhere that details the basics of his training . his training was alot more intense then most would ever be able to handle.

I think in winter or base building he does longer runs and continuous tempos, mby easy runs just longer? It just seems sus that he does that little easy running
