    Making Strength Work For Triathlon

    We kick off this week’s pod with a quick (and slightly amusing) chat about “crotch-gate” at the Winter Olympics — if you’ve missed it, you’re in for a laugh. If you’ve been tuning in regularly, you’ll already know the fundamentals of strength training for triathlon and how to get started. This episode goes a step further. We take a deeper dive into strength training with hosts Tom and Milly, who also run Total Strength Endurance. Together, we unpack the do’s and don’ts, and highlight where athletes and coaches often go wrong when prescribing strength training for endurance athletes. And of course… this week’s ick. Let us know what you think 🎧

    Fuelling Fundamentals: How To Eat For Endurance Over Christmas

    This week’s podcast features performance nutritionist and run coach Lily, who works with Kelsie (yes, our Kelsie — at NXP Coaching). Lily is basically endurance royalty: she completed a 250km ultramarathon this year and an Ironman, which officially makes the rest of us feel like we need a nap. She joins us to chat all things off-season nutrition — how to survive the festive food minefield without derailing your goals, which supplements are actually worth your money, and how to enjoy December without needing to enter nutritional witness protection in January. And this week’s “ick”? For the first time in a while, we get a unanimous agreement. You’ll have to listen and judge for yourself. So grab your favourite mince pie (or three — we’re not judging) and tune in 🎙️✨

We also dive into practical guidance for triathletes looking to mix some Hyrox into their off-season—how to integrate it without derailing your training, and even use it to come back stronger. And of course, we round things out with this week’s Triathlon Ick—a controversial one. Let us know what you think via DM or in the comments!
