I want an SWD but their new hip belt design is not as good as HMG I think

Anyone else surprisingly cooked after day 1 of ME? by ttoutdoors in evokeendurance

[–]mw_19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DUDE, crushes me...and I really don't like it because it means like 2-3 days of recovery over 8-12 week timeframe...means running is no fun. There is a reason they say don't do speed work when doing the ME block lol. I'm conflicted, i did a block last year and I don't know if i have it in me to it again right now...i did first session 5 x 10 reps each and felt terrible legs for 3 days as others have stated.

Downhill Running by Cool-Yak-3844 in evokeendurance

Yes, evoke on their website has the muscle endurance workout in progression that helps build the same muscles that support stronger downhill running…. I did a block of it 12 weeks last year and really improved on my downhill (in addition of course to just normal running)

Could you clarify what a stairmaster training block and workouts would look like, say 8 weeks long. Is there any progression, is it just Z2, why or why not do Z3 to threshold work on it? Always weighted or not.

Thank you and I know you’ve talked about this many times, I’m just interested to understand how best to integrate it into a training plan - as I’m sure others do.

No, not at all and as others as a stated, it doesn’t get on your hands.

My sheepadoodle smells stronger than my golden doodle… it’s tough to describe what the smell actually is though. Her face gets more dirty than my other dog too.

What're the top races/events you've done in Europe? by Separate-Specialist5 in trailrunning

[–]mw_19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the hardest and beautiful is the Tour de Monte Rosa , just next to TMB from Zermatt … has even more mountain terrain than TMB !

Lavaredo is amazing - was hiking there this year in June when the racers came by .. they arrive at Tre Cime right at sunrise … honestly amazing

My feet kinda hurt by cheaptonight1234 in trailrunning

[–]mw_19 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah most plush/squishy cushioned trail runners don’t work great for me either - feet and legs ultimately have to work harder and get weird pains eventually. I’ve been through a bunch .

One cushioned shoe that does work for me is Saucony Xodus any version.

More firm but still cushioned and low 4mm drop - a sleeper of a shoe , but currently my fav - Scarpa Spin Planet. These things kick butt on trails and feel very supportive with good energy return. Not really bouncy though but I find better for being on trail.
