Скачать или смотреть Durability: How to Train It (The Concepts)

What actually works for training durability? And what's just coaching folklore?
In this video I break down what the research says about training durability - and I'm honest about where the science is solid, where it's inferred, and where we're relying on coaching practice that seems to work but hasn't been tested yet.

We cover:

The Matomäki study showing durability adapts independently of VO2max
Steady vs stochastic durability (and why they need different approaches)
Why your long rides might be testing your limits rather than extending them
How strength training slows durability loss (Rønnestad's research)
Why getting fitter is itself a durability strategy
What to avoid: fasted rides, endless volume, and confusing durability with suffering
The key principle behind every session I use? Ask the same question twice - fresh, then fatigued. The gap between those answers is the information.
