  • Thanks!

    I just discovered your podcast and am really enjoying it! Just the right mix of chit-chat and running talk. Could you consider an episode on training tips for older runners please (50+ years)?

  • Must listen!

    An all-round great podcast for runners. “Solo Series Ep 12 - Strength Training 101” should be mandatory listening… either as an intro or a refresher.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

263. Plyometrics, Longevity & Athleticism with Angus Bradley
Q: Do runners need significant strength training, and how should zone two cardio fit in?
He suggests that while strength training is highly beneficial for health and resilience, it's not strictly required for all runners, but a pragmatic dose (e.g., two hard sets, one warm-up set, two hard sets per week) provides substantial benefits. Zone two can be used as a practical introductory cardio, but the primary aim is to fit training into the client's life and avoid overemphasis on slow, long zones if they want faster running.
263. Plyometrics, Longevity & Athleticism with Angus Bradley
Q: What actually makes someone athletic and how do you improve that ability?
Bradley explains that athleticism is a blend of strength, speed, endurance, and flexibility, and that improvements come from training across multiple qualities, not by isolating one in a vacuum. He stresses individualized programming and progressive exposure to plyometrics and speed work, while acknowledging the importance of sequencing and context.
251. Why we get fit faster than our tendons adapt & worst running trends online
Q: How does one balance rebuilding fitness with tendon and bone healing during a return to run?
Start with very short run-walk intervals, gradually increase duration, and only progress when pain and tendon/bone loading tolerate it. Maintain cross-training to preserve conditioning without overstressing vulnerable tissues.
247. ICYMI - Pelvic Floor Health for Runners | Madison Cutmore - Physio
Q: Where can listeners reach Maddie for more help?
Listeners can contact Maddie via Instagram at @physiomads and visit her Sydney clinic, the Physiotherapy Clinic, for in-person or online consultations.
247. ICYMI - Pelvic Floor Health for Runners | Madison Cutmore - Physio
Q: What's the stance on Kegel weights and other devices?
Devices like weights or EMG-feedback tools aren't necessary for everyone; many people benefit most from brain–muscle connection and a well-structured program supervised by a professional, though devices may be useful for some cases under guidance.
