Threshold Training For Faster Running With The Legendary Coach, Bob Larsen I EP 238 I RWF

Описание: In this episode, we are joined by Coach Bob Larsen, The recipient of USA Track & Field Hall of Fame with an experience of over 6 decades. His athletes Meb Keflezighi and Deena Kastor went on to win medals in the Olympics and he is responsible for building several athletes to global successes. Vikas & Coach Bob discussed the importance, impact, and the right protocol for threshold and altitude training. We also discussed Coach Bob’s insights from decades of coaching, the importance of aerobic base building & his view on how athletes must train.

Here are some key takeaways:
Coach Bob’s incredible journey into coaching for track and field athletes, his experience at UCLA, & training Meb Keflezighi to run 300 miles per week.
Importance of altitude training & how runners should structure their training week.
For an elite and semi-elite, besides the grind, you need an active lifestyle, a supportive coach & a strong aerobic base training to break through.
Focus on intensity & pacing. Build your base. Work on your threshold training.
Threshold is something you are working hard, but not racing. Recreational runners should start with 20 minutes of threshold training.
With Threshold training, you experience less injury, psychologically & physically, you are not breaking down, you get your body under control.
‘City Slickers Can’t Stay With Me’ is an incredible documentary on the life and journey of Coach Bob Larsen.
