    Evidence based training in HYROX – Max Swindells

    This week we welcome Max Swindells. To discuss evidence based training. Max provides his view of what evidence based training means to him and what evidence we can look to in HYROX. Max also provides details of the precise detail he looks to when trying to evaluate athletes prior to their first 12 weeks of training. We also deep dive into the world of Lactate threshold training and VO2 Max to consider how this may guide your training. Finally we consider some of the common tropes in HYROX training and look at what could be reduced or removed to improve training efficiency.

    🔥 The Swift Half – Episode 268

    From wedding livestream dilemmas to world‑record OCR performances, Episode 268 is packed with everything from the heartfelt to the downright chaotic. Alan and Ian kick things off with wedding talk — including why there will definitely be no Patreon commentary track from the big day — before diving into the brand‑new Farm Yard Jam medal design from Tim Rolfe. It's bold, it's beautiful, and it might cost a small fortune… so they're asking the community to weigh in. The running chat gets spicy as they roast the Paris Marathon's "bring your own bottle" disaster, celebrate Clark Reynolds' groundbreaking marathon using smart‑glasses guidance, and debate whether energy gels belong in the delivery room. There's tech nostalgia, fundraising shoutouts, and a deep dive into the London Landmarks Half route — plus Ian's ambitious challenge for Alan to run at least one mile in every ceremonial county in England (and maybe the whole UK). Strava group incoming. OCR fans get a full buffet: Nuclear Races updates, Tremor Tracks hype, High Rocks news, Deadly Dozen world records, OPP400 results, Briony's insane 37‑hour G1M performance, and the latest on VJ Shoes after VJUSA's closure. They wrap with Olympics OCR dates, Farm Yard Jam 24‑hour ticket news, and a look ahead to next week's Deadly Dozen Sprint breakdown. A stacked episode from start to finish.
