Fatigue is an experience produced by the brain to protect your body.

Nobody embodied Paris-Roubaix, and what it can do to a rider, better than Wout Van Aert.

@HotHerps If you come to Easter I can help you out.

Apparently in the #Army we perform hill repeats on a level track. The recommended exercises to prepare for the #ACFT are not well thought out.

@N_Squillari @JoshBBornstein The problem is that humans make emotional decisions regardless of education. Facts are only minimally effective, hence the reason why anti-vaxxers exist and some people think the world is flat.

The next question would be what was the melt rate of the glaciar in Ohio vs today?

[Colin Kalescky @widdleknees]

I'm watching #Ourplanet by @netflix and it has me thinking. These documentaries should make us feel bad about melting ice and climate change... but you know there used to be a giant glaciar in Ohio? What about the species lost with that? Just looking at the big picture.

This is where socratic questioning comes in handy.

What do we do? Simple.

Work HARD to not fall in love with some diet, exercise or other fad.

This is what I have to do as a coach. I can't give everyone lots of running or my favorite workout. I have to realize everyone is different. That things I thought worked, don't.

@stevemagness So you'll be getting a lot of replies for this thread

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

Personal Experience:
Let me ask you this, If I told you that I ran faster than 99.9% of you, had a resting heart rate of 32 and impeccable health by running 15 miles per day, would you say that everyone should go run 15 miles every day?

No...But that's what we do with diet!!
