Today we open the podcast to Athlete/Listener Questions from our Facebook Group. We hit on how to adjust when your race is canceled, swimming challenges and open water training, and hit on one of Coach's rants about over-dependence on Training Peak graphs and numbers. Meditation. Yoga. Critical thinking. Questions covered below. 

Topics:

  • You Know your body better than anyone
  • Ask yourself these questions
  • Critical thinking
  • The most overrated graph in Training Peaks
  • The biggest thing you need to wrap around your mind
  • Reframe your mindset
  • In order to peak, you have to shed
  • Stop letting Training Peaks drive your life
  •  Is there a swim workout that can be done in open water or is the workout to just swim. Like 500m easy 500m hard.  – Arin Christiensen
  • Joshua - what is core work we can do?
  • Feel for the water
  • What’s an acceptable lake temperature for swimming?
  •  When your next race has been postponed until the fall. How do you maintain your current gains in fitness until it’s time for the hard work to start leading up to that race? – Erni Quezada
  • This is my question also. I went straight from a 70.3 to Doing Disney’s Dopey challenge and then a month later did 2 half marathons that were each a PR within 7 days...... and now, nothing until October is on the calendar... I don’t want to lose my fitness. – Julia Mayhew
  • What is the biggest challenge that you think athletes are facing right now - staying motivated? under training? overtraining? Nutrition? - and how best to stay on top of it? – Samual “Arthur” Browning
  • You bought a training plan, now what??
  • Nutrition: right now is the time.
  • Ironman is sold?
  • Ironman virtual races for Kona slots?
  • What's an acceptable lake temperature with wet suit, no gloves or boots...
  • This is a question for Mike Tarrolly...you’re a big advocate for yoga and meditation...i could sure use some guidance for diverting my mental and physical energy away from my hospital right now...so is there a particular individual or app that you’d recommend for a beginner looking to incorporate more yoga or meditation to help reduce stress? Thank you 🙏
