Stephen Scullion - Double Training Day (AM 12 Mile Tempo, PM 5x300m)

[@Dmoneyokeefe]

Nothing fancy or flashy. Quality work day in and day out for months. This is what gets you fit.

[@aymies]

as a european, I appreciate the speed and distance conversions

[@TheFODRunner]

This man…. Just dropping knowledge bomb after knowledge bomb

[@afkkolin1900]

Great insight! Very likeable guy.

[@jakereuter7617]

This guy seems dope. Really cool vibes I'm getting from him. I also love seeing more "built" professional runners. It makes me feel more confident that I can run fast, when I don't look super thin.

[@did.it.myself9022]

@Iaros B. Im going to turn myself into spaghetti for the 1 Mile WR

[@CnCstrengthperformance]

love this guy. he is direct not over talking and shines insight into the daily disciplines required to perform at top levels

[@petershaw9225]

Only in flagstaff is it normal for some Irish dude to take his lactate in your front lawn.

You're killing it dude. This is the kind of stuff that will boost our sport

[@EuropaChronicles]

Can we all admire Matt’s pacing skills on the BIKE?! Very impressive!

[@johnnyg9459]

I'm not on other social media platforms. And i rarely comment on youtube. But I wanted to find some way to let you know that you are an inspiration. What you have achieved already is beyond belief. Look after yourself. You've got a lot of support out there, I hope you feel that. From a fellow runner.

[@errgo2713]

I hadn't heard of him but this video made me a fan.

[@JackD87]

This one is great. Would like to see more from him! Interesting guy. Breaks it down well.

[@GuidoMillonezz]

this human being looks great, very healthy

[@zao8350]

God I love these videos. Also nasty physique, guy is built out of rebar

[@isaacstamper7798]

He looks so damn smooth on those 300s

[@lavs8696]

he does, definitely a huge benefit to have a bike pacemaker right next to u

[@uMsubathi]

8 minutes: I just love the relationship, honest conversation between the video guy & Stephen

[@nb-ii2rb]

Absolutely fantastic video. Will be looking out for you at the Olympics and cheering you on. Would love to see more videos like this!

[@MattRuns]

Stephen is such a knowledgeable guy and so honest and humble 👌🏻

[@SendingStache]

Such a cool dude and what a brilliant workout you’ve documented for us. I’m more and more obsessed with this channel with each video - sincerely, a horrible runner who is drawing so much motivation from seeing elite athletes do amazing workouts.

[@xtrekrex]

He has his training down to a science. Really cool to see.

[@iancampbell4875]

This is such a cool channel. Super raw content. Love to get to know these athletes just a little.

[@jacobreesmontgomery]

hate when garmin says i’m detraining, i could be in peak training and it’ll hit me with that 💀🤣

[@TheDeclancox]

Go Stephen, we're all rooting for you back home!!

[@RunningMan1414]

Hey Stephen, I don't know if you'll read this but you seem like a top guy, I'll be rooting for you in the Olympics.

[@hamishmorcom2089]

That was amazing. I love Scully so to see him just smashing out a session; kudos to the camera work regardless of the audio interference.

[@rodrigogorosito4206]

this is by far the best channel nowadays....keep uploading those videos guys..

[@skibumtrackclub6332]

I like the idea of adding speed reps on the same day as a longer hard workout for people who train at altitude. Usually I do them on separate days, but his method lets you only focus more on recovery on your easy days.

[@antonvedel3028]

Really enjoying the content on this channel, thank you @Sweat Elite - Training Sessions for delivering. Fascinating to get a closer look and understanding of how these top athletes build themselves up to big events.

[@scottnixon2752]

Everyone loves scully 👌

[@stupud16]

Phenomenal content. I just became a huge Scullion fan.

[@ericgasparro2545]

i really do hate how easy and graceful those 300's looked hahaha I definitely don't look like that :D

[@bhtrent]

Thanks for the amazing content!!

[@DrProfX]

Stephen, Look forward to some new content! Great to see you’re posting some great results post-Olympics...👍🏃🏻‍♂️

What shoes is he wearing on the 300s?

[@krissifadwa]

bad ass!

[@EuropaChronicles]

25:07 Lol at Garmin. Whoever wrote their Training Status algorithm is a clown. No acknowledgment of a base building phase. No option to use anything other than 7-day microcycles. 60 min recovery/easy runs are considered “unproductive” the day after a hard effort. It’s truly amazing. It’s a company full of athletes yet they seemingly don’t know the basics of training.

[@dawidsadownik740]

Very handsome guy!

[@marshallbuhler]

Which lactic meter did he use?

[@krruns4165]

I asked this on one of his KZbin videos and he linked to this device. I think it is still the same one www.habdirect.co.uk/product/lactate-pro-2/

[@victory4life00]

Good runner, i like his car.

[@monkeymonkma7283]

How do you become lean like he is ,not skinny fat as a runner

[@MC1796]

Correct macronutrient and calorie intake, a well rounded strength program and sleep.

[@stephenmesquire]

[@chrism589]

Hi, does anyone else use a lactate tester, just wondering as I dont think I know of any non elite runners who use them. I can fully understand why an elite would, but what about the rest of us mortals. Certainly tempting to buy one but not the cheap.

[@nathansmith5041]

I have a friend who has one and we mess with it from time to time. Any sort of added data is only going to be beneficial for you, from elite to amateur. It’s what you do with it and how you use it that matters. We use it to measure threshold workouts on the track. Super useful info for dialing your hard efforts in. Do you NEED it? Probably not but can it help your training be more effective? Most certainly.

[@kalinikos321]

A slightly late measurement of 7.0 lactate value, to call this a controlled tempo run is absurd.

[@krruns4165]

To be fair he did explain (I think) that it was higher than marathon effort at the end of the workout (which is what he wanted) and that he can hold 4 or 5.5mmol for marathon...
