Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Joel Filliol, Coach of Seven World Championship Titles: You Need Less Intensity Than You Think
Q: How can athletes with 10 to 15 hours a week build deep aerobic conditioning?
Filliol recommends first establishing a sustainable weekly structure, then building frequency and volume gradually at low intensity. He advises learning from previous training and interruptions, and layering in race-specific intensity later as goals approach.
Joel Filliol, Coach of Seven World Championship Titles: You Need Less Intensity Than You Think
Q: Does the minimal effective dose apply more to intensity or to volume?
Filliol says it primarily concerns the quality and quantity of intensity in individual sessions, where he sees athletes most often overdoing the work and harming consistency. It also applies to training frequency, total volume, and blocks of work.
Kona Science Special: Humidity, Heat Training and Race-Day Cooling | Research Roundup
Q: What can athletes do during a race to cope with hot conditions?
They can use available ice caps or ice bandanas and douse themselves with water, while keeping planned hydration separate from water used for cooling.
Kona Science Special: Humidity, Heat Training and Race-Day Cooling | Research Roundup
Q: What should listeners and athletes look at when assessing humidity and its potential impact on performance?
They should check dew point rather than relative humidity, because dew point reflects absolute humidity and the conditions affecting evaporative cooling.
How to Race the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona: A Complete Guide | Tomasz Kowalski
Q: What is something that you think that they should know in training and they should do in training to increase their chances?
He advises athletes to plan over a multiyear horizon, build consistently, avoid rushing into excessive training volume, and embrace gradual progress.
