How I Went from 5K to Ironman Triathlons & Ultra-Marathons. Building Speed & Endurance

Whether someone is training for a 5K, Ironman triathlon, or ultramarathon, polarized training aims to facilitate training adaptations with less burnout. In this episode, we discuss fitness adaptations that occur as a result of high-volume low-intensity training and high-intensity training. We review the scientific literature on building endurance performance, mechanisms of recovery debt, adaptations to various exercise modalities, and developing training programs around polarized training.
