So you can do either or of those.
I just think that I would love to see a lot of people doing something that's more intense.
You could also oscillate between these, right?
Like there's different benefits to like
doing different intensities and training around different thresholds and moving them forward.
But like if you're above that essentially lactate threshold.
Um And do we care about that?
Yeah.
So for Minormi, the reason you care about your lactate threshold more than anything is not because you care about your next marathon performance.
It's because that's my the one that will never happen.
Yeah, exactly.
Like I care about it because it's allowing me to run faster at a higher power output with less physiological fatigue.
For you, it's just an underlying reflection of those adaptations that we talked about earlier.
Because if you're able to have more mitochondria, they're more
Capable, you're able to clear more lactate, you're relying more on oxidative metabolism, you're having less of that interference at the cellular level that's blunting fat oxidation.
Um, and with time, that will shift up.
No, you don't need to know how to, you absolutely don't need to know what it is.
But that's why, but we want to train the reason I say lactate threshold is we want to train above it.
Because there is more of a bigger physiological stressor.
I think your last podcast just talked about this coming from that high intensity of sprint interval training.
