The last couple of weeks have been, “busy,” to say the least.
I flew out to Seattle last Wednesday at 7 am, in an effort to get there and spend time with Luka and Joel before the seminar started on Thursday.
(Plus, I worked every second of the way in an effort to get a few key items done…more on this at a later date).
Spoke and listened to the other AMAZING presenters on Thursday.
Attended the lectures all day on Friday, as well as the VIP Dinner that night.
Flew home Saturday (again working the entire flight), and was home exactly 14 hours before Team Robertson packed the car and drove to Gatlinburg, Tennessee for Fall Break.
So needless to say, things have been a bit crazy and I wanted to try something new for this week’s podcast.
I’ve obviously done “Random” Shows before, but those have mostly been me talking about random topics, or doing Q&A shows.
This one is entirely different, as I’ve chosen my favorite segments from recent episodes and compiled them all into one AWESOME super episode.
So whether you’ve listened to every single episode or some are totally new, I think you’re really going to love this show.
Let’s do this!
The first thing we need to do is define “What is Zone 2?” If all you’re talking about with Zone 2 is a just a heart rate range, then anything can get you into Zone 2 – a sauna can get you into Zone 2.
But is sitting in a sauna going to make you a better endurance athlete? Probably not.
