Coach Herb delves into the paradoxical concept of how slowing down can actually make you faster, especially for runners over fifty. He explains the science behind slow-twitch muscle fibers and their role in endurance running, touching on the metabolic processes that fuel our runs. With a focus on zone two of heart rate training, which emphasizes a lower intensity, he promises an eventual increase in performance with reduced injury risks due to a more robust aerobic base.
