#876 – Primal Instinct Training and Racing

12 Sep 2025

Description

We start by talking about a C26 athlete that raced without a watch at Ironman Wisconsin and dive into the mentality of being in tune with your body. We get into the psychology of logged workouts and really understanding what's going on from day to day. We talk about why 3 Zones may be all you need to train by. We get into data trends over time and if you're chasing the wrong goals. One of the hardest parts of this sport is recognizing minimal and imperceptive changes in the short term. We talk athlete over-analysis, and why most often don't even know what they're really looking at. We look at why aerobic training works and how making things feel easy might be the most underrated part of training. Topics: Racing without a watch Gauging time by the sun Primal instincts The psychology of logging and reading workouts Nasal breathing as the perfect technology Why most athletes might be better off training with only 3 Zones Going backwards Resisting the over analysis temptations Things that can affect our breathing Warming up the lungs Chasing that labored feeling too much When you're chasing the wrong goals Recognizing small gains or changes Athlete over-analysis Why many athletes don't really understand what they're looking at So many combinations of variables Some of your medium sessions might be your best Making things feel easy The true power of aerobic work Long term system work World Championship Predictions   Mike Tarrolly - [email protected] Robbie Bruce - [email protected]
