Thanks for sharing!

I agree that the values here on this AM workout seem a bit high. Nevertheless, from what I have been able to gather from different research papers, articles, and training videos, the AM session goes to 2.5mmol/L. 2.0mmol/L is your fat max, barely entering the thershold realm. Nevertheless, Rory had a good point during the video when he said "2.9mmol, which for me is really low". I agree that each person may have their threshold at a different value. For example, For me what it ismy threshold may start at 2.0, but maybe yours starts at 2.3, so that should be taken into account. I agree that the AM session lactate should be lower than the PM.

@@carlosparra85 the target intensity for morning intervals depends on the time of year. For example during the longest training period without any races, October to early May, we target the lowest lactate values. Jakob Ingebrigtsen could for example target 1.7 mmol in the morning in January during peak volume at 200km/week because he is so good at clearing lactic acid that even at 1.7 mmol the mechanical system works relatively hard! The idea is not to find a magic mmol number to train at, but the idea is to use mmol as a number to manage risk in order to avoid recovery-debt. Low measurement = low energy usage = low mechanical risk = low recovery risk

@@MrEirik3000 I do not disagree with what you say. My thought process (and I am not an expert, so I am willing to learn) is that if someone's threshold starts at X, and I know that anywhere between X to X+2 I will be able to recover well for the next workout, why keep training at <X? Don't you think that workout at <X may be a missed opportunity for a harder stimulus? I agree with you, if you are targetting 200km/week and even at your threshold lactate values, you are fatigued and cannot reach that volume or get injured in the process, then yes, I agree, the efforts should be sub-threshold, but that is then something else, we are not talking about threshold workouts. I always wondered how the Inbegritsen organize their macrocycles and mesocycles throughout the season. I have not been able to find out much out there. I assume in the off-season or early in the season, they go higher volume, and maybe, as you suggest, focus a bit less on hitting exact threshold efforts. Then, as the season progresses, they dive into pure double threshold & hill sprints, and finally, close to the competition, they move a bit more to race-pace efforts. They even use races as their sharpening effort for their main goal race. Again, this I am guessing.

Normal WU for first session, shorter CD (2 miles) shorter WU in PM 2 miles, really short CD 5 min

For double T, 10 min in duration

Too invested in this to back down now 😅

Ryan stepped away from coaching

@@LinkletterRory Gotcha. Thanks for the reply! Hadn't heard that. Hope the fresh start continues you along your progression.

lol everybody poops

Hence why we backed off from there (:

Be no problem for Ruth

I did go all the way, didn’t document it.. could’ve been fun, but some hurdles to get it done

@@LinkletterRory Any way you look at it, it must have been a pretty good prep workout for the goal race.

There’s a place for that type of work, I’ve done my fair share of it. But it’s a big bite out of the apple 🍎

Good question, don’t know the answer to that. I should probably talk to someone who has a better understanding than me about this

I’m still doing some long sessions @ MP

What about Ryan's signature workout: 10 moderate 12 MP 2 easy Maybe there's not enough time to fit that in.

Glad it was helpful!

Yes

@@LinkletterRory woo let’s go! planning to incorporate plenty of thresholds to my marathon training block too so i’ll be following along your training.

Were you the one that gave me a shout out mid race? 😅🤙

Big volume, but chill vibes

Pacing

@@LinkletterRory oh

He’s involved

I did not fact check myself

@@LinkletterRory "Race organizers for the Berlin Marathon announced that a world record 54,280 people finished the race in Germany this on Sunday, surpassing the 54,175 finishers from the Paris Marathon back in April and the 2019 New York City Marathon record of 53,627."

Top 10 would be AWASOME--Field is lit !!

Thank you!!

Can't wait!

We could do something like that before NYC. Thanks for the recommendation

I’d say there’s a decent chance (:

they'll probably come out with a non plated super trainer like adidas and nike sooner or later

Liberate

@@btwanonymous4801what is the Nike non plated super trainer?

@@LinkletterRory doesn’t look like they sell it anymore- will see if I can pick it up somewhere or maybe they’re about to drop the 3s?

Deviates!

Gotta risk it! Thanks for watching!

Fast-R 2, which is my marathon/race shoe On the dirt I was wearing deviate elite 2!

I really like what I read about DE 2 and it looks really cool. Is that what you wear for a shorter race?

If you’re looking for something more versatile I’d recommend the deviate 3, but mag max is better IMO for just mileage needs

@@LinkletterRory ok thanks rory ,loving the videos

Thanks for the feedback, I'll give more reasons as to why I'm running NYC this fall in the next video. We were just trying something out with that format, in the content game you gotta try stuff and just see what sticks!
