Un error de entrenamiento común es asumir que la métrica que estás rastreando te informa…
A common training mistake is to assume the metric you’re tracking is informing you about whatever system is being overloaded. This is putting too much onto one specific metric. A good example would be heart rate. This is a great proxy for estimating the cardiovascular...
Podemos ver la imposición del estrés del ejercicio como información que se le da a nuestro…
We can view the imposition of exercise stress as information being given to our target tissue/systems about the demands they will face in the future. Our body is always adjusting to be prepared for future events which it anticipates from a best guess derived from...
No digo que sea una buena idea… pero es una posible solución para aquellos que corren…

90/90 shoulder ER endurance test via @mullaneypt I’ve been getting a lot of pm’s from mentioning this in the podcast with @mikereinold so figured I’d do a video. Key considerations: Setup needs to be consistent & tested loads the same on future re-tests. Use visual &...
