Recovery is so essential. Thank you for this 👍🏼

I like to include some run/walk/run during my recovery week runs. Allows for volume but also low HR during the effort.

Seems like a good plan Jim. Gonna hive that a go.

Yup, I do run- walk -run on my long runs 👍

Thank you. I feel guilty for having long breaks from running. I am 60+

Recovery is not a break It’s just not pushing the envelope. A break means not running. Not running makes you adapt to not running.

Excellent advice; I haven't heard that advice before. Wish I could afford your Master class to really implement this stuff better but alas, social security only goes so far! I'll probably still try some kind of adaptation of this concept on my own though. Thanks for the great video.

Itchy skin at night without any obvious reason after a strenuous workout can be a sign of your weakening immunity system due to not having sufficient rest. A sign that your liver simply needs more rest to recover properly. It has been overloaded by your strenuous workout and is unable to cope with its normal daily toxic clearance duty efficiently.

You advised to keep frequency, keep intensity, lower power frequency to a third and reduce volume, which is most important, but…by how much to reduce volume?

I'd like to suggest using "women" instead of "females". I know that may sound picky because use of the term "female" is rampant in the fitness industry. People think it sounds more scientific, but it's dehumanizing. We use female to describe animals. And we don't tend to use male to describe men. So join me in changing the way the industry speaks: just say "women"! ;-)
