The ABCs and 123s of Performance
Chapter Two of How To Train

There are nine foundational concepts in the figure below:

1⃣No Muscles, No Power

2⃣Stamina & Performance at First Breakpoint

3⃣Fueling The Burn

4⃣Fitness is expressed as a rightward shift of the lactate curve

5⃣There is an optimal sequence to training periodization. We start with a focus on health, shift towards metabolic fitness, add general capacity then finish with specific preparation.

6⃣Fast and hard are not the same thing

7⃣Continue base training as long as it continues to shift the curve

8⃣The bike is the safest place to ramp endurance volume

9⃣Fitness is a time series of performance

The five years before, and the 100 days after, I read Nils’ book relate directly to the first two points. We’re going to start with the top two points then return to our story.
