Cold Enough to Change the Next Session
The study at the center of this article reframes cold exposure as a tunable intervention rather than a binary habit. Drawing from fifty five randomized controlled trials across major scientific databases, it compares combinations of water temperature and immersion time to identify which protocols best support recovery from acute exercise induced muscle damage

Running On The Edge Of Enough
80/20 (or pyramidal) isn’t dogma—use event specificity. Blend polarized foundations with race-specific threshold/CP work in the final meso.

Launch Speed Begins On Land
Max-strength vs. plyo vs. endurance for starts. Head-to-head comparisons show program choice changes block time & flight; periodize across the season.

HRV-guided day picking
Using morning HRV to “green/yellow/red-light” intensity beats fixed plans for endurance blocks; implement weekly gates and flexible microcycles.
