The Mental Game of Endurance: Staying Motivated on Long Rides
When do you start introducing sugar on zone 2 rides? If the ride is shorter than 2 hours, I won't use any fueling. If I'm going longer than 2 hours I definitely feel like I need the fuel for the long zone 2 rides.
Hey @ridegreen78 Great question! Thank you for that. Remember you have a lot of energy onboard in form of fat storage. If you can access those - you don't need sugar. Remember too, that you can fuel with protein and fat rich foods. Nuts, beef jerky, nut based home made bars, etc are great sources for fuel without massive sugar content. You should look up the new study by Prins et al (2025) for more reading on this. "Carbohydrate Ingestion Eliminates Hypoglycemia & Improves Endurance 2 Exercise Performance in Triathletes Adapted to Very Low & High 3 Carbohydrate Isocaloric Diets"
I understood that I am jeopardizing my important zone 1 and 2 training as soon as I digest sugar during the session. Basically that's fine for me for rides up to two maybe three hours, but that won't work for even longer rides of three, four, five hours. In addition I thought I had to practice nutrition for my long distance triathlon during those long training rides. So I'm a little bit confused tbh.
Hey there! Reflect on what is the most important aspect you want out of the session. Is it base season and you want to improve your fat oxidation? Well, then you may want to drop those gels/sugars and work on fasted rides, or fuel with more protein and healthy fats vs. sugar. Is your race coming up shortly and you want to practice your race day nutrition? Then you can occasionally work on ingesting race day nutrition. Does this clarify it at all? Let me know! Remember, it is definitely a process and you cannot expect to be able to do fasted riding or no-sugar riding if that's what you are used to. Allow yourself plenty of time to get adapted. Once you do, it is pretty amazing how good it feels!
Do you plan to include strength training in the gym as part of the software? Additionally, will there be a future assessment of parameters such as HRV trends, sleep hours, weight, calories and other metrics?
@paro64 we have strength training workouts in our mid- and high-volume plans and are working on improving them in all plans. We already have a recovery profile chart that pulls available sleep and HRV data from Garmin and provides analysis in the context of your training.
Are these the guys that bought PerfPro?
Yup.
Awesome job on your race and your interview Allan! Keep Grinding!
Thank you @Paul Larsen and @Marjaana Rakai for raising awareness around the benefits of being a LCHF Athlete. I have been a LCHF Triathlete for the past 3-4 months and in the last 4-6 weeks predominantly Carnivore and can train easily in a fasted state, albeit at Z2/Z3 efforts. I find that my energy expenditure on a long ride or run is so much more stable than ever when I was fuelled by Carbs/Sugar. I have moved from a Sugar burner Athlete to a Fat burner predominantly to move the needle further along becoming the most efficient fat adapted Athlete I can be. I also do Crit racing as part of my training and can bike at Threshold HR for about 30-40mins before running out of energy (bonking perhaps) so there seems to be a limit at how effective fat can be as a fuel source, however, maybe that will improve as I become more fat adapted over the next 6-12 months. It’s early days as a LCHF Athlete but I would have to be 100% convinced to go back to use Carbs/Sugar as a primary fuel source for training and racing.
This is so amazing to hear. Keep experimenting and seeing what works for you.

I just finished a 20 week half marathon block and the first 3 nights of my taper my HRV has been way below my baseline. My sleep quality has been bad as well. Is this because my body is out of whack with the reduced mileage?
Hello, thanks for your question. Sometimes HRV drops during taper, Dr. Laursen has seen this with elite athletes. Sleep quality of course affects HRV reading in the morning. Try to focus on your sleep quality and see if your HRV bounces back. Your body is not out of whack due to reduced mileage. Many factors play a role, but if you had a good training block and were consistent, your body is most likely asking for recovery to super compensate. It’s been 2 days since your comment- how is it going now?
@@MarjaanaRakai-e2e Interestingly enough when I woke up this morning my HRV shot back up to the upper end of my baseline. It was low for 4 nights in a row. Still got some weird aches and pains but I think it is the body recovering. This my first training block and taper so I have no clue what to expect. I was very consistent with my training though especially last 2 months where I was at 50-66 miles per week.
Great news!
How bout rucking?
If you can get your HR into zone 2. Likely you would have to walk up some hills :D
I mean it's a great exercise if you're pressed for time and want a full body workout but it's not nearly as effective at training any one muscle group as doing any exercise that isolates that muscle group. So if you have the time it's just better to do other isolation exercises
Hello @ggabe2865 , thank you for your comment! Yes, rowing is amazing aerobic exercise that works most muscle groups! And can be so effective in many people's busy lives. Lifting weights definitely builds muscular strength (and size if done right) - but misses the aerobic fitness stimulus that you can get from rowing. It's all about what is your goal, right?!
Too much running and too much heavy lifting too often plus stress = complete CNS fatigue. Looking completely dead and like you have a drug or drink problem when you don't drink, don't smoke and don't do drugs and eat healthy and workout all the time. You end up looking worse than somebody who does nothing. You have to get lots of rest and take breaks.
@mlee7290 - YES, totally agree! I think Marjaana would agree as well - having been there. Recovery is crucial!
Dude shut up! You don’t have a vagina, or a medical degree so buzz off
This is great! Finally someone makes and- thanks! Also, I’m really fit but I also have a surprisingly high CVA cardiovascular age. All info says to exercise yet I’m overtrained. Pleas help 😊

@@athletica4785 I just did as Patch. I’ll look for replies there. Thanks!
🎉 nice message
Mega 🎉🎉🎉 This was such a good episode on so many fronts -- amazing.
I’m with Paul on the mental focus. If it’s outdoors then it’s a none issue. If you are doing a long ride greater than 90 minutes then it’s almost certainly aerobic development. You don’t need to keep an exact power just sit within the range and make sure your breathing and legs feel moderate. I did a 6 hour ride last week, got the train north, then rode back all the way with a tailwind. During those 6 hours, just be in the moment, take in scenery, feel the wind on your skin, smell the air, look at the birds soaring on the currents, become aware of the rhythm of your legs turning and your cadence, feel your chest moving in and out, your heart beating, learn to feel the effort. Staring fixedly at a number on a screen would be hard. So don’t do it. Get a feel for what the RPE feels like in that power range, and tune into what your body is telling you already. The hours will pass before you know it and sadly your ride has come to an end.
A great philosophy, thanks for sharing!
Ok ma oltre Marjianna ci sono altre evidenze per atleti di sprint e olimpici
its not posible see the "full detail" workout? like a pop-up or full screen ? Only parts of the training or in full week (small details)

How does liquid eggwhites compare to whey protein?🏋🏻🏊🦊🧨
We recommend getting your protein sources from real foods, so egg whites (even better if you eat the yolks as well) are more versatile and more cost effective as well. But if you struggle to get enough protein in your diet you can supplement with whey protein
@athletica4785 Thanks will drop the eggwhites and eat more hardboiled eggs in the morning. Found a source of eggs at local farmers market. Will continue a scoop of Whey in the AM to meet 50 gram protein target. I can go for hours between meals with no snacking after high protein breakfast. Note am supplementing with Black Seed oil. Any intel on BSO? 🏋♂️🏊🏻🧨🦊
Swimming. I swim for 30 minutes prior to strength training. Doing four to six intetvals. I do uppet lower split four days a week starting each session with a compound lift to faiure. Linear progression ala Rippetoes Starting Strength. Of course 26:46 Creattine. Emphasis on high protein Mediterranean diet. Love meat and fis and eggs. At 70yrs am the oldest OG under the barbell at local YMCA. 🏋🏻🏊🦊🧨😢
Right! You are nailing it!
@athletica4785 Thanks. Am also going to implement Bob and Brad's bodyweight excetcises. Although I can move heavy weight I have deficits when attempting these simple excercises. Checkout their recent podcast. Always room for implement. 🏋♂️🏊🏻🧨🦊
Being very anxious I wonder how Must change the Approach to the race. Does an anxious person have to do an aggressive taper totally eliminating integrity or does he have to maintain high intensity? Do you have to rest on Friday or Saturday? 😅
@@Jj88Im great question 🙋♂️! Can’t really give a definite answer but if you are very anxious and it affects your performance negatively, I would add yoga, meditation and perhaps experiment (on less important races) on ice bathing to stimulate your “rest and digest” parasympathetic nervous system instead of “hitting it hard” with intensity until race day if that only gets you hyped up. This is where each individual is their best teacher, as we spoke in the episode about taper. On the race day you may find it beneficial to meditate and keep calm instead of listening to music that gets you excited. Calming breath techniques like the box breathing can help you keep you nerves in check as well. Hope this helps 😀
@@Jj88Im Sunday race? You could have a full rest day on Friday or Saturday depending what you prefer. Many like to have a short “shake out “ run the day before

Good evening guys! Regarding training in the heat, it may take a lot of study and a very specific way to perform! I live in Greece where for about 2 months in the summer we have an average of 28 (6:00 in the morning) to 45 degrees Celsius (during the day), in the sun even more! We have been training every day for the last 24 years (Running) and not only does the heat not help but it really wears you out because there are many factors that affect the constant exposure to heat! I'm just mentioning it because maybe many people think they have to go to hot climates to train!
Thank you for your comment! 100 % correct ✅ training in the hot environment increases the stress so you’ve got to pay attention to that and allow yourself to recover from it. Depending on the individual, it may take longer than usual until adaptation happens 😊
There's guy, let's name him Gerald, who is 20 years old. He subtracted 20 from 180 and got to 160. Then he added 5 because he had been training consistently for 6 years. That gave him a maximal aerobic function heart rate of 165 bpm. Only trouble is, Gerald was tested in a lab with a VO2MAX protocol, and his maximal heart rate turned out to be 164. That formula isn't any better than most others. The only formula that I believe is worth it is the Karvonen formula, provided you know your true maximal and minimal heart rates. The rest is just trash. Or do I misunderstand those formulae?
Hello, George. Gerald is clearly an outlier. The MAF formula like many other formulas, even Karvonen, are great starting points. There are always going to be outliers that don't fit. Great that Gerald got his VO2max measured in the lab. Field based estimations for training zones are great when one has no access to a lab with metabolic cart.

When a person says looking at the science I am expecting a biased and unfounded opinion... Tell us the study or studies and then the sum of the info....
You have already been told the process is gluconeogenesis. It is up to you to find more about it.
Dr. Phinney and Volek are pioneers in this area, look up their research.
I think it has to simply do with where you are raised. I was born and raised in Arizona, and love the heat. Ive lived in Alaska as well and it wasnt that bad to be honest but it sure did take some getting used to and i craved the Az heat. I think our minds and body type have alot to do with it as well.
Nature vs. nurture kind of thing... I'd be willing to agree with you, but I know many northerners who can't wait to get out of snow shoveling and lay on the beach like no tomorrow. lol. I also think some part is genetics, part nurture (where you are from) and mostly mental.
I went to Baghdad, Iraq (145F) for 9 months in 2009-2010. When I got back to North Carolina, USA, I could not get cold enough. I spent the winter outside in a T-shirt and jeans down to freezing (32F). I was born in Texas, USA. I can't stand the heat now.
Ever since that place , I can't take the Florida humidity.
I was in Baghdad in 2010…I was born in the Mojave Desert. I can’t stand the heat or humidity now. I’m trying to retire near the arctic circle in Alaska and my husband is not keen on that idea 😂
I've got plenty of heat adaptation in the heat (3 years in Rio, 6 years in Dubai, about 3 years in TX). I think it's mental. You either love it (the heat) or not.
@@DaPressedHam Heck yeah, Alaska is the way to go!
It takes 3 to 4 years to adjust to a climate and in that time you find ways to avoid it and hot weather is the most difficult you can't remove clothing other than wearing a swim suit but you can't wear that everywhere cold you just put something on and if you start getting to warm you take something off it's the easiest climate to get use to so yeah don't think anyone ever gets used to hot weather sorry
It's definitely a challenge but I think it's possible to some degree. Performing in the heat is a different ball game. I'd rather race somewhere cold than somewhere hot and humid, but you can't always chose...so...
Amen, sister! I'm Br'er Rabbit and the Far North is my briar patch!
Yeah sister! Far North is the Best! :D
I was born and raised in Texas, from at least 3 generations back. I still HATE the heat. One of my greatest fears is no sir conditioning. I have English and German ancestry, no idea if that plays a part. But the way i see it- you can always get warmer by putting on more clothes, getting a blanket, etc. But you can only take off so many clothes and even if your completely naked you can’t get cooler if its 100° outside.
It’s called epidermis and pigmentation… Most people live along the equator have darker skin.
Maybe a very small amount of genetic play in heat adaption, But i would say 99.98% is mental. If your body has lost the ability to sweat to cool it's self off or even if you just lost a fraction of that ability it would kill you, a few degrees in either direction and it gets bad real quick. I believe we are all very well heat adapted genetically/physically, we all have a ability to deal with heat, we do not have the ability to deal w/ cold. but modern adaptation allow us to like cold better then warm. Go for a 10 mile bike ride, 5 mile run and a 3 swim, in both arctic and tropical and which one does your body handle better.
I tried the same thing with spicy food. I tried eating scotch bonnets and carolina reapers, but I would rather eat iced cream 365 days out of the year.
There's a thing called transition .... one shouldn't jump from a freezer into an oven.
Your body adapts to your environment and I’m not sure why someone with so many medals for sports doesn’t know this…..
The whole point of this video is her asking whether or not there could be any genetic predispositions that would affect her temperature regulation in warmer climates. She seems to be operating on the same assumption you are, that she *should* be adjusting to warmer environments after some time, but she isn't.
My family is from Maine but we live now in North Carolina and I feel exactly the same way as she does. I absolutely abhor the heat and there's nowhere to get away from it except inside with air conditioning around here. I've lived here for 20 years and it's never gotten better. @@abobobini
Some people like the heat and some don't. I know people...this is wild. They will PAY to go spend time somewhere warm! I would rather be hit by a bus than get on a hot beach. It's miserable. other than the lack of sun, which I do hate. I like the weather in winter better than summer.
Lol, you are funny! Yes, if you listen to the full podcast, you'll learn more about heat adaptation and what factors play into it. We just have to be intentional with it and we can adapt. My biggest limiter is my mind - I don't like the heat. But it's a work-in-progress. There's hope for a polar bear !

What is a good example of a 30/30 workout for a distance swimmer?
Hey, sorry late reply. You could do warm up, then set of 50s (depending on your speed of course) with a 20-30s rest between each 50. How long is each interval depends on your speed of course, so if you are a slower swimmer, these could even be 25m all out efforts with equal recovery. I would start with 2 sets of 5x 50m (or 25m) with 20s recovery, and focusing on ALL OUT effort. Don't forget cool down :D
What is a good example of a 30/30 workout for a half marathon or marathon runner?
Hey There @rhinoJoeOutdoors! Thanks for your question! Here's a link to an example of a 30/30 workout. Feel free to comment and/or ask questions on our very friendly and helpful forum: forum.athletica.ai/t/examples-of-30-30s-for-our-hiit-loving-athletes/1613?u=marjaana

In my case, in my running 30 yrs ago, running TOO hard on my rest days was a killer, as Mr. Maffetone explains here. I got a HR monitor finally and this stopped my TOO hard of running, stopped my injuries, and I got faster... -- Not that others might help you but STAY with Mr. Maffetone and Coach Parry. Both have lived running and can help you.
