Welcome to the first episode of Training Science Summaries (TSS), a monthly series where we break down research into actionable tips to boost your performance. In this episode, Dr. Dan Plews and I explore durability in endurance sports—what it is, why it matters, and how to train it. We discuss the role of strength training in running economy, the importance of training frequency and duration, and the often-misunderstood concept of zone two training.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Science Summaries04:00 Understanding Durability in Endurance Sports11:51 The Role of Strength Training in Enhancing Durability23:54 Strength Training and Plyometrics25:41 Weekend Warrior vs Elite Amateur Training26:06 Training Frequency and Performance Outcomes28:11 The Importance of Training Duration30:27 Catching Up on Missed Training Sessions32:53 Balancing Training and Nutrition34:46 Understanding Zone Two Training35:10 Defining Zone Two Training39:18 The Dynamics of Training ZonesDr Dan Plews: https://www.instagram.com/theplews/Shop online: https://pillarperformance.shop/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pillarperformance_/ Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pillarperformance STRAVA: https://www.strava.com/clubs/1108245
