The 2nd Threshold: The physiology and its applications to training

Time: 53:41
In this second episode of The Physiology of Endurance Running Podcast, we explore all aspects of the 2nd threshold. We cover:
What is the 2nd threshold and why is it important for performance
What do we know about the determinants of the 2nd threshold
Do we know how best to train it?
How can we use the critical speed model to calculate our 2nd threshold outside of a lab and without lactate measurements
How can we apply the critical speed model to our own training
Critical Speed Calculator
You can access the calculator via this link. You will need to download the Excel file in order to edit the document. Let me know if it doesn't work!

Description

This podcast is all about getting sport science research out into the public domain. We cover what we do and don't know regarding all topics related to endurance running performance and, more importantly, how can we use this information to make ourselves healthier and faster runners! Your host is Dan Nash, PhD researcher at Cardiff Metropolitan University and exercise physiologist for Welsh Athletics and Welsh Triathlon. Dan is also an accomplished runner in his own right, with a marathon best of 2hrs 15 minutes and the current British record holder over 50km.
