Are you being too hard on yourself right now? We start with a look at adjusting your workouts for success. Then get into why FTP tests may be the most overrated thing for long course racing. Can you get away with doing your own bike fit? Bike injuries that affect your run. Unsupported races. The most useless things in triathlon. And how to ride intervals when you're outside. 

Topics: 

  • Too hard on yourself?
  • What are you reading?
  • Our life is the toughest to navigate
  • People will find a way
  • Do we have faith in where this is going?
  • Are we getting stronger?
  • What’s the best thing we’ve seen during all of this?
  • The small things are what matters
  • Selfish or Selfless?
  • How often should I retest my FTP?
  • Why FTP tests are overrated
  • How most athletes RUIN their race
  • Which Race would Mike and Robbie Relive?
  • Which one would you do over?
  • Do you carry too much on the run/bike?
  • Self fit a bike or bike shop fit? Save money or no for first true road bike. New to biking.
  • I’m finally getting the hang of pushing intervals on the trainer. How do I best translate this to outside...seems harder to control effort.
  • What is your insight and advice for athletes participating in or adding their own virtual run/bike races during this time and what can we learn from these results?
  • Lots of talk about unsupported (i.e. bring your own hydration/nutrition) races. Thoughts? Is it even possible for a FULL IM?
  • What’s the most useless thing triathletes often try to force into their training?
  • Would you be open to regional training camps? How many people do you need for it to make sense?
  • Can you get stronger without a trainer? How often should recovery work - stretching, foam rolling, etc be incorporated & when? Like shortly after a workout? Later in the day? Before?

Remember that time when you got done with a workout and said, "I suck?" Get out of that place. Today, we look at a never ending positive process. We talk about the challenges of social distancing and isolation for triathletes. Depression and the immune system. How do you respond to challenges and turn them into race and life wins? 

Topics: 

  • We’re all carrying a bigger weight than we know
  • The problem with social distancing
  • When your process is disrupted
  • How we respond to things matters most
  • Rolling through different states of consciousness
  • When we look for answers that support us no matter what
  • Know who your friends really are
  • Two perspectives on race cancellations
  • A never ending process
  • Bad workouts as opportunities
  • Remember the GOOD stuff
  • At the core, we just want to feel goooood …….
  • You didn’t suck as a person
  • You may have sucked at self care
  • How we just simply bypass our environment
  • Triathlon vanity dreams
  • Don’t try to marry your training on the best day
  • There will always be battles
  • You can’t always look for the easy . . .

  • The Biker and the Alcoholic
  • The epic ride that brought them together
  • The drunk summer
  • "What's a podcast?"
  • The coffee shop morning that laid the groundwork

Communicating the right messages to athletes. Dealing with tough questions and situations. Today, Coach shares what he's talking about with his athletes during this time and gives his perspective on how to find optimism. We look at why races shouldn't matter. What's most important. And dealing with the voice inside trying to talk you out of it. When life throws you a curveball, sit back, wait, and drive it into the gap.

Topics:

  • Weirdness of isolation and going to the grocery store
  • Optimism about races soon?
  • What cities look with giving the okay to race
  • Where does the negative outweigh positive
  • Internal negotiations and talking yourself out of it
  • This should be your number one goal
  • Can’t find motivation, try thinking like this . . .
  • Dealing with Life’s Curveballs
  • The process of hitting a curveball by Mike
  • Races shouldn’t change your attitude
  • Fitness is essential for most of us . . .
  • Time to be flexible… and stay on task (19:00)
  • Our prediction for Muncie 70.3 race status
  • Jumping from 70.3 to Ironman analogy
  • Durability in time vs. distance
  • Frequent, but dispersed volume
  • Being prepared is what matters . . . no matter what
  • Day by day . . .
  • Use today to prepare for tomorrow . . . not 3 months from now
  • The Sun is Vitamin D
  • We have to do the best with what we have . . . every day
  • It’s not the race, it’s who you become along the way
  • Don’t waste this time, you don’t get it back
  • We all need wins 53:26 get out the door… quick fix

You work so hard, but can't seem to find that speed you want in the water. You’re still dragging, gasping, and not seeing much return from your investments. It's time to use the water and not let use you.

Swimming doesn't have to be so hard. Today we break it down in the simplest terms and make the swim stroke easy. We dive into the reach/entry, catch along with early vertical forearm, a solid pull, and powerful finish. Have your mind ready when you get back in the pool!

  • Hand into the water, it needs to be preparing to work.
  • Reach as far as you possibly can
  • When you enter the water early and tvhink about a high elbow out of the water, it forces you to shorten stroke
  • Why swimming is so difficult . . . we’re not used to it.
  • Early vertical forearm
  • Swimming is simple: Swimming square and staying in your box
  • What your arm should look like out of the water?
  • 3 Different parts of the box - the stroke
  • The front part, the middle, the back
  • Body position and staying high in the water
  • The cycle of a stroke
  • Where the stroke breaks down and gives you nothing .. .
  • Pressure on forearms
  • How to build REAL swim fitness . . .
  • Most of us swim the “easiest way” and taking the path of easiest resistance
  • Pressure and fatigue means you’re working
  • Developing different gears in the water
  • Building your Swim Cake
  • How to not go anaerobic in a race
  • Why your kick could be slowing you down
  • The competitor in you . . . be excited to jump in … game’s on
  • Fitness in swimming is a domino effect
  • What do do when you finally get back in the water
  • Work your system harder with 25s and 50s . . .
  • The dead spots in your stroke
  • Just because your arm is in the water doesn’t mean it’s doing anything
  • You can work so hard . . . and get nowhere. Sinking… gasping… swimming slow.

Are you quick to pull the "relief plug?" Training for long course triathlon (and living in uncertain times) demands the ability to "stay with the pain" and go through it.

We've all seen the fan get upset with the coach in the first quarter, only to see the team slowly dismantle the opponent over the long haul of the game. It's that mentality, that strategy, that patience that we all have to focus on now. Smart triathletes are managing their body and mind for the long game because no one really knows when racing will start again. What are you doing now that will pay off when that day finally comes?

Topics:

  • Time management
  • When will we be racing
  • Do you have a since of relief?
  • Virtual Ironman racing
  • Why power is so relative
  • Watts per kilogram
  • Every power meter is different
  • How to read power meters that are “off”
  • No one knows . . .
  • There doesn’t feel like an end game
  • The mysterious caldron
  • Life’s pause and time to catch up
  • The Triathlon Rain Delay
  • When momentum turns
  • We want what we can’t have
  • Rekindled love for the sport?
  • Mom and Dad took away the bat and ball
  • The Swim Effect on future races
  • Being tired doesn’t mean you’re more fit
  • The Long term benefits of all this
  • Things we can’t control
  • High fives at future races?
  • Social response when races begin again
  • Connection is medicine 
  • Self service aid stations?
  • What’s your takeaway?

Apr 3, 2020

Today we turned things over to athletes from our Facebook group to guide our discussion. They asked us about maintaining base fitness and mental stability. Live Zoom podcasts. Too much core work? Emerging from this as better humans. Virtual racing. Ethical debates of training outside. Time based vs. Distance training. 

Topics:

  • The Pulse of our community
  • It was race season, now it’s like holiday season again
  • Why peaks and valleys are good
  • Racing to validate yourself
  • What was your reaction to a race cancellation
  • Tempering race expectations

Athlete Questions:

Arin ChristensenWhat does it mean to maintain a good level of base fitness and mental stability in these strange times?

Somer Scandrge Would you and Mike consider doing a live podcast on Zoom while we’re all on there for our weekly meeting??

Kevin Taylor Indoor trainer rides suck 😂

Brad Creamer How to “ramp down” training after your late May IM got postponed?

Ioanna Aslanidou Is there such a thing as too much core strengthening? If you don’t do heavy weights and allow your body time to recover can you have an approach like the one you suggested for how to not suck at running? 

Jacque Wegner I love when you two get all philosophical, so...What about who we are becoming during this time? I'm trying to emerge as a better person than I went into SSAH. Better habits, better mindset, more courageous, better "human".....

Garry Crosby Is it safe, fair or even a good idea that athletes could potentially qualify for 70.3 World championships by Virtual racing

Dorice Hankemeier Your thoughts on the ethical debate of riding bikes outside right now. Getting outdoors is paramount for mental health, but in hard hit areas is a the risk of potential accident worth the risk/strain on the healthcare system. 

Joshua Venis Can you reiterate time based vs distance based training? I always love Robbie’s perspective on this.
