@StephenSeiler You are absolutely right, there’s a paradigm shift here.
For instance, 27:00,00 over 10,000 m to be selected selected for the Olympics in Germany.
No one is getting close to that… but one has to set different ambitions at a young age for this to ever become a possibility.

Morning routine of elite runner:
Wake up, down water, eat a banana, sip coffee, go to the bathroom, go run.

Morning routine of bro cosplaying "elite":
Cold plunge, nasal breathing exercise, supplement stack, meticulous nonsense, no time for full workout because they wasted it

@StephenSeiler Love that… happy Birthday, Stephen! Have a great day!!!

@MRasmussen1974 It seems MvdP will be the big favourite, now…

[Markus Ganzmann @itsmarkboyo]

@brian_drago_ Also 400-500 miles for trainers like the Novablast…. I usually switch between two pairs and run at least 50% on softer surface e.g. thorough the woods.

@StephenSeiler The problem with AI is: if the premise is wrong, the hypothesis is subsequently wrong. We now know that lactate does not cause acidity - even though there's a correlation. We should be grateful that AI hasn't been around 40 years ago. But the time-saving aspect can be helpful.

@ammattipyoraily One can see the structure in the workout. It’s quite common practice.

[Markus Ganzmann @itsmarkboyo]

@StephenSeiler @SirenSeiler @viken_julian Congratulations!!🍾

[Markus Ganzmann @itsmarkboyo]

@StephenSeiler @srmtraining Absolutely. I was thinking twice too... but then I thought, you only live once and it lasts forever, plus the accuracy that comes with. Currently, I do all my indoor rides on a trainer in my gym. So definitely protect the metal parts if you'd go for it.

[Markus Ganzmann @itsmarkboyo]

@StephenSeiler There's only one answer... https://t.co/DzborOlfXN by @srmtraining - the most accurate and durable device out there. I use the SRM Origin PM & PC8 for training outside, they are worth every single cent.

@mou55981652 You can increase your credibility by applying for a blue tick and by changing your profile picture to one of a donkey. 😉

Moving to Spain during the winter, every morning cold baths, rollers, girlfriend who sells het business to go with him, pregnant and going on a 9 weeks altitude camp, a first child, aerofreak, mentally and fysical strong AF. One of the good guys. Congrats & enjoy @VCampenaerts ❤️

@freddiejevans_ @irishpeloton Because they signed him, and he knows some stages like the back of his hand. They mere fact that you are mentioning him is a good reason… he won four times.

[Markus Ganzmann @itsmarkboyo]

@Catalyst2Thrive @feelthebyrn1 @brady_h @Alan_Couzens @AndyBeetroot @sweatscience I'd go for MIDSEC/PLYO bodyweight workouts (30-60 min). Yoga/mobility on easy days. Don't forget to enjoy the downtime, too!

[Markus Ganzmann @itsmarkboyo]

@sweatscience What’s known as the “Norwegian Method” has been used in the past by athletes of the former GDR and before (Gerschler/Zatopek).
I don’t like the nomenclature of “threshold” - it’s got no place in physiology. History has shown: volume + increased time at MLSS is a viable method.
