We're looking for athletes (and those who
would NEVER call themselves an "Athlete") to
support in generating their next level. If
you know someone who is ready to go after
their first Marathon, break a PR, go pro or
take on something out of the realm of
possible and into the world of reality, we
want you, and them.
We'll
give you a T-Shirt, Aerator socks and
20% off anything from our Shop JDS Online
store if the person you refer joins us for
coaching. We'll give them a T-Shirt, the
best in coaching and customer service
anywhere, and access to reaching their goals.
Deal? Great Deal! Click

In May, we introduced you to Suunto, a line
of personal training devices (ptd) designed
to help you reach your next level. The
Suunto heart rate monitors we carry feature
measure Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
Measurement of the beat-to-beat interval of
the heart clearly shows that heart rate is
not constant but alters from beat to beat.
Measurement of HRV involves analysis of these
intervals.
By accurately measuring the time interval
between heartbeats, the detected variation
can be used to measure the psychological and
physiological stress and fatigue on the body
during training. Generally speaking, the more
relaxed and rested the body is, the more
variable the time between heartbeats.
Until recently there were no useful methods
of monitoring fatigue accumulation during
training. Scientists have now demonstrated
that excess post-exercise oxygen consumption
(EPOC) can be predicted from HRV data
recorded during exercise. Consequently, EPOC
prediction may serve as a tool for monitoring
fatigue accumulation during exercise.

It happens about now, in mid-June to
mid-July. Your athletic progress is not what
you think it should be. Clearly something is
wrong, and more/harder/longer workouts will
fix the lack of speed, the fatigue on long
rides, and the lack of energy. When our
performance is not what we expect, we often
think something is wrong. Before you make
that pitfall, look at what is missing, and
avoid making radical changes in your training.
What is often missing this time of year is
rest, recovery and/or proper fueling and
hydration. Sleep quality and quantity play a
big part in our bodies' performance, as do
the amounts and quality of the nutrients we
ingest. Among the athletes who come to us
for evaluation this time of year, I have
never come across one that needed more time
training. If you aren't using a coach, find
one who will look at your plan with a
critical eye towards those details.
