Can you Improve your running by running less?a. Dry training (exercises/lifting):- Plyometrics jumps (box jumps or no box)- Deadlifts (hamstrings) - Bulgarian Split squatsb.

Why WR are falling (a March 9, 2025 video) - His youtube video captures a lot of what we talked about on prior episodes but puts it all together nicely. You can decide if it's worth bringing up. 1. Super Shoes and Super Spikes2. Track - new tech is adding energy return (2%) from just a few years ago (per the manufacturer). 3. WR lights on the track (we mentioned last week). 4. BiCarb and other legal supplements (Beets and Broccoli Sprouts extracts and Caffeine supplements). 5. Pushing WR indoors is more of a NEW phenomena.6. More scientific and dialed in training techniques (Lactic acid testing....etc) - preventing injury. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YoorDjE7-I
