Coach and podcaster Mikael Eriksson joins Michael to explore into the world of endurance sports and the constant influx of new training methods, technologies, and nutritional advice. We discuss how to navigate the overwhelming amount of information and separate the useful from everything else.
* The Impact of Social Media: Social media can be a double-edged sword. While it can be a great source of information, it's also a breeding ground for misinformation and oversimplification.
* Evaluating Information Sources: Consider the credibility of the source, the depth of the information, and the potential bias.
* The Importance of Context: A training method that works for one athlete may not work for another. Consider factors like training level, age, and specific goals.
* The Role of Anecdotal Evidence: While anecdotal evidence can be helpful, it's important to weigh it against evidence-based research.
* Mikael's rubric for evaluating utility: A step-by-step guide to making sure the intervention or technology is useful for you.
