Brilliant interview/conversation, and you seemed to really get Stephen talking and extending beyond his core/typical topic coverage on the basics of polarization - great stuff. I particularly enjoyed some of the content that I've not seen covered elsewhere, such as the potential use of ventilatory/respiratory monitoring. It also seems crazy that there isn't some existing popularized mehtodology for monitoring it given how core a physiological metric it is, similar to HR/pulse.
Thank you and thank you so much to Dr Seiler for spending so much time to share so many observations, I've searched out quite a few pod casts of his and this has been one of the best.
40:47 Seiler talks about how the internal load is not constant through a workout and that we end up drifting upwards (in zones). What does this mean for workouts in your opinion? I’ve seen a lot of people try to negative split their workouts where every rep, set, or 1st half v 2nd half is faster than previous.
I think it really depends on the goal of the session. Always going faster at the end is not the way to go IMO. Sometimes you need to maybe even slow down in the second half to ensure you maintain the internal environment in a place that matches what you’re trying to achieve.
From other talks, blogs, and interviews he has said there is no real LISS or that there is no continuous steady state. We experience or see this in increases of perceived exertion and cardiac drift as HR will not remain constant. That point will differ with the conditioning of the individual from an untrained officer worker whose drift may begin quiet early and someone who is an elite athlete on the other extremely or a professional cyclist who may ride for 2-3 hours with little apparent alternation but they are occurring. The body cannot go on forever. So I think he said end zones, but I apologetics if I am wrong, and he refers to a right shift on multiple occasions as blood serum lactate, HR and other metrix shift as we tire and are thus not truly a stead state or condition.
I love this, "There are no short cuts, the best short cut is to figure that out quickly, and do the work"
Indeed 🥳

Thanks for commenting! I’d recommend my podcast with Andrew Sellars and there will be an upcoming one focused on respiratory testing and training too!
@@Upsidestrength thanks! Bookmarked and I’ll be sure to give it a listen 👍
@@XX-is7ps looking forward to your feedback

Thanks a lot Greg!
Super échange. Merci à tous les deux !
Merci Marion!
