World famous Exercise Physiologist, Dr. Stephen Seiler, on his pioneering work on the 8-level training hierarchy pyramid from most important to least important: Training volume; high intensity training; intensity distribution; planning/periodization; micro-periodisation; specific adaptations like heat and altitude; race pace training and tapering. We also discuss polarized training and mind-body connection. Show Notes 01:05 – Introduction to Dr.Seiler and how he got involved in exercise science 04:20 – Dr.Seiler explains how he came up with the 8-level training hierarchy pyramid 8:00 – Three most important levels of training hierarchy: training volume, intensity and distribution between the two 13:45 – The next 5 levels of training hierarchy - planning/periodization; micro-periodisation; specific adaptations like heat and altitude; race pace training and tapering 22:50 – Dr.Seiler explains why he did not include strength and mental training in the hierarchy 25:15 – Basis of polarized training and evidence 30:00 – Ways to measure intensity in polarized training: power/pace; heart rate and perceived exertion 33:10 – Interval training within polarized training – better to do more time at sub-maximal effort than less time at maximal effort 35:05 – Mind-body connection 39:00 – Ways to train the mind to improve performance 41:45 – Quiz Time! 44:25 – Resource recommendations by Dr.Seiler Contact Dr.Seiler Twitter: @StephenSeiler Resources by Dr.Seiler Dr.Seiler on ResearchGate - https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Stephen_Seiler Dr. Seiler’s Hierarcy of Endurance Training Needs - https://rb.gy/2efsgw Dr. Seiler’s Ted Talk – “How normal people can train like the world’s best endurance athletes” - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MALsI0mJ09I Other Resources researchgate.net Contact Details for Running and Fitness with Raj Join WhatsApp Group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KUa5ddQDDlf22imAFJNcqh Email: [email protected] Facebook Group: Running and Fitness with Raj Instagram: Instagram @runningandfitnesswithraj Twitter @RunningRaj Listen and Subscribe Thank you for listening and supporting "Running and Fitness with Raj".
