236. Dr Bill Evans (PhD) - The Physiology of Running - Fatigue, Adaptations & De-Training

In this episode of the Stronger Stride podcast, Dr. Bill Evans, a professor of Exercise Science with a PhD in Exercise Physiology, discusses the complexities of muscle fatigue, the importance of stress management in performance, and the physiological adaptations that occur through training.

He emphasises the significance of periodization in training to prevent overtraining and injuries, and provides insights into how athletes can effectively manage their training and recovery to optimize performance. He discussed the differences between easy runs, lactate threshold and vo2max training. The conversation also touches on the impact of detraining and the potential for athletes to regain fitness quickly with the right approach.
