Kristian I can’t say enough good things about you. You have taken time during training and races to say hi to me and my friends along with autographs. The information you share and the content on Strava and social media is great! Your love for triathlon and joy is inspiring. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Such a pleasure getting to see the ins and outs of your career. Thank you for sharing. Going to be exciting and interesting to see more data driven athlete growth catch up and change the sport as you have.
Awesome insights, thanks for changing the sport! As a 36 year old age grouper, focusing primarily on Olympic and Sprint distance, when would you expect peak performance to hit? Lots of variables I know, coming in under 1:10 on most sprint races though and feeling better than ever...but realizing my improvement time could be limited based on age! Thanks man, keep it up!
hey dude - good luck this weekend. you make it look easy!!! anyways, what watch do you use? I used polar vantage v but broke after years of use .. think me wearing it in the sauna caused the issue..
Is the mask really able to accurately measure VO2? I had a VO2 test done last week for a lung condition and I was hooked up to a load of other machines as well to measure cardiac function etc.
What I did was, Start walking each day 10min - 1hr, then all the sudden you’ll want to to go faster and run. Build up to 3 days a week run and 3 days a week walk 1 day rest. Then keep asking for more ideas from like minded people.
firstly, accept that getting to 'a lot of running endurance' can take a lot of time, start out with 2 or 3 short runs per week, easy pace, and just stick to what you find comfortable. Running 40km+ per week should probably take you anywhere from 2 to 6 months since we have no idea what 'no fitness at all' means in your case. Good luck, and take it steady - I say while writing this with my feet in an ice bath.
Agree with the comments above. Depends what you define as “no fitness”. If that mean that jogging 1h without stopping is exhausting, then I good to use walking like Surf says. Maybe add in some running as intervals. Like 4min walk+1 min jog. And progress to 3+2 and 2+3 later on.
It’s expensive for standard athletes to buy( around 6-7K USD I think), but for a coach or club I would say it’s the most affordable device with extreme accuracy that you can get. And if the device is cheaper, then it’s also pressing down the price if you want to go to a test person and get tested
