In this episode we interview SGX Coach Anne L'Heureux. Coach Anne is a Dietician and a high level Spartan Race Competitor. She shares her own mistakes when she first got into Spartan Racing, and how being unprepared lead to serious injury, which forced her to take time off from training and racing. Coach L'Heureux explains how she came back from training and her philosophy on how you can put together your own training program.
We get into the topic of nutrition vs fueling and how you must understand the difference for optimal health and performance. Anne will be a regular guest on the share since we merely scratched the surface on proper nutrition strategies for Spartan Racing.
Along with the interview we also get into how you can use complex training to improve performance and a cool app to track your sleep cycle each night.
