Episode 62: Our Coaching Philosophy
We’ve spent a lot of hours sharing ‘the key principles that guide our approach to endurance training and coaching’ on this podcast, but we’ve never sat down and distilled all of those principles into a single one-stop-shop episode that covers our coaching philosophy. In this episode, we’re doing just that: talking through ten of the biggest and most important principles that shape how we think about training and coaching. Highlights include person-first coaching, the 80/20 intensity distribution, grounding in the intention of the workout, fueling the work, preventing injuries, strength, durability, and lots more. Check it out!
