As always the Underground SGX Show is providing you training tips and advice to improve your next Spartan Race.

In this episode, discover a cool calculator for determining your training pace for your runs.  Instead of just randomly going for a run, this calculator tells you the exact pace you should be hitting, based on the specific training adaptation you are trying to improve.

We also discuss lactate threshold.  Discover what it is and why you need to know about it.  Plus we review some of the research on lactate threshold training and how you can improve it if you want to be a better racer.

And in our SGX Coach's interview I have on Coach Stephanie Lozon.  Coach Lozon is a former RN turned trainer and OCR coach.  She works with many Masters athletes helping them prep for racing and helping them stay injury free.  Coach Lozon has helped her clients prep at the OCR World Championships maximizing performance and longevity.

In this episode she discusses how she helps her seasoned athletes stay fresh and healthy for the long haul.  She give great tips on how you can train for the elements.  And she provides a great template to help you divide your training plan into different phases to help you peak for your most important races.  We even touch on the importance of the deload and how so many are increasing their injuries and decreasing their performance, but not implementing this crucial component.
