This week we bring back one of our most popular guests, Dr. Phil Maffetone. This show is from the archives, if you can remember all the way back to July 2019. It's just as timely now as it was then, maybe more so as we're heading into the winter months.
In this episode, Phil discusses:
A recap on how to determine your true MAF heart rate
The relationship between MAF HR, aerobic threshold, maximal fat oxidation and why MAF is actually better and more reliable than expensive and time consuming lab tests
How heat can affect performance, and how to adjust accordingly
Why it’s ok to consume sugars from natural sources like honey and berries, and how the body treats them differently to refined sugars
Dr Maffetone's simple prescription for a disease free life of optimal performance
Why Phil loves fartlek training for intensity
What you must do if MAF isn’t working for you
In this episode we also discussed the following items/links:
2 week test to determine carbohydrate intolerance
The Overfat Pandemic why athletes who do lots of training may still look fat
