Anaerobic, Metabolic, Mechanical or What?! How Maximal Repetitive Speeds are NOT What You Think They Are - with Prof Peter Weyand
Show Notes

“ANAEROBIC”, energy or metabolism are NOT limiting your speed. Full stop. End of story - for now! The current data on it is quite clear, but yet most of us have NO CLUE that this is the case.

Prof Peter Weyand has spent a couple of decades working in the physiology, physics AND mechanics of moving at high speeds - and he is more than confident that we should abolish the term “anaerobic” zone for fast speeds.

In our 37th Episode of The Training Science Podcast, Paul and Peter go through A LOT of basic exercise science history, how Peter got to work with cheetahs, rhinos, horses AND humans, in an extremely unique place to uncover all sorts of characteristics of human locomotion. 

A whole lot of geeky insights into HOW and WHY we can or cannot go fast, but also a collection of anecdotes, analysis and comments on up to date topics like power meters in running, or force-velocity-curve based training.
