Wondering what to wear on these cold weather rides?

Should endurance athletes cold plunge?

I reviewed research from 3 continents, and here is what I found: https://t.co/eKBgvsNbbk

I asked ChatGPT to summarize a '21 NIH study on HIIT.

"Short, intense workouts like HIIT offer health benefits similar to traditional exercise in less time. Safety and long-term effects for certain groups need more research. Regular HIIT is be a time-efficient way to stay fit."

Fitness / endurance crowd -

I am going to finish and publish one more of my in-process books this quarter. I have several in draft mode.

Which subject is of most interest to you?

[Coach Von Collins @CoachVonCollins]

2023 was "the year of the e-bike" in my area. I'd say the # of e-bikes on my local trails tripled from '22, which was a big step up from '21.

Sure, a few ride in a disrespectful manner, but overall I think e-bikes are getting people outside who normally would not be active. 👍

Registration opened today for many running, cycling, and multisport events across the country.

Secure your spot, and start training for your A-Race!

[Coach Von Collins @CoachVonCollins]

Hey everyone! This is the time of year when people usually circle a race / event on their calendar and start training.

What are you training for?
- Marathon?
- Triathlon?
- 5K/10K?
- Another Challenge?
- Weight Loss?

Drop it in the comments. Would love to hear!

[Coach Von Collins @CoachVonCollins]

What is the next endurance event you are training for?

[Coach Von Collins @CoachVonCollins]

Zone 2 training. So effective.

Burn fat, build aerobic capacity.

I suggest up to 75% of your workouts should be in Zone 2.

HIIT is great for Triathletes, Cyclists, and Runners. It strengthens the core and adds mobility.
