  1. If you "train like an athlete" first you have to define what kind of athlete — and you have to realize that an athlete is paid and supported to train in a level that you can't do. So for me this is more nuanced and it isn't the same year round. I am a cyclist – there is a season and a "pause" there is a build etc. I am doing a ride 5 or 6 days a week and those will vary and on top of that is weight and yoga.

  2. The 60 minute limit is such a game changer for recovery. I used to grind for 2 hours and just get sick constantly. After an embarrasingly long time of doing that I switched to a tighter 45 min split and used apps like hermq to both generate and track it for me (if I do it myself I end up making it 2h again) andmy strength actually shot up, so I definitey recommend the "less is more" strategy.

  3. Super hot topic that is not talked about enough imo

    As for the recovery part: it‘s missing in this „idea“ week. Gets more important as we get older (I‘m 62, training as hard as I can)

    As for the cardio part: We‘re supposed to split the cardio into Zone 1 or 2 sessions and hard intervalls for maxing VO2 max. who can, though, do a hard strength training a day after running intervalls? Nobody.

    So how‘s the perfect plan actually looking like??

    Pls share your experiences

  4. I started hitting the gym hard starting when I was about 40, my workouts could easily last over 2 hours and I went pretty hard. Now that I'm over 50 I do find that I feel best around that 1 hour-90 minute area. I like to do high intensity intervals with my lifts, one upper body lift, one lower, abs, repeat. No one talks about this being a "good" routine to have but I enjoy it (that's what's most important) my heart rate is up, I feel good and have the strength I want. Is it the "right" routine? Who knows.

  5. This video by Huberman Lab Clips is a great resource for anyone looking to optimize their workout routine. The key takeaway for me is the 60/40 split between weight training and cardio. This approach emphasizes strength training while still incorporating conditioning to improve overall health and athleticism.

    I also found the advice on workout duration valuable. The idea that shorter, more intense workouts can be just as effective as longer ones is very appealing, especially for people with busy schedules. I will definitely try out these tips in my own training program! 💪👍

  6. 1hr is minimum length? Ridiculous. These guys look great but they are not gaining anything in the gym anymore and probably haven’t for 10 years even with drugs.
