For years, recovery monitoring has been dominated by wearable-derived scores based on heart rate variability (HRV), resting heart rate (RHR), and sleep metrics. While these tools are valuable, research in applied sport science consistently shows that well-structured subjective measures are highly sensitive to training stress—and have been shown to be at least as sensitive as, and in some cases more sensitive than, isolated physiological markers. For endurance and hybrid athle

When endurance training gets tough, it’s easy to turn your focus inward. You start noticing your breathing, muscle burn, heart rate, and discomfort. While this seems logical, research in sports psychology reveals that where you direct your attention during intense efforts can change how hard the effort feels, even if your output stays the same. Focusing on external cues rather than internal sensations has been associated with lowered ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and ca

If you want to excel in HYROX, professional coaching is the key to unlocking your full potential. HYROX is a demanding fitness competition that combines running with functional movement stations. It requires strength, endurance, and - most of all - technique. Without the right guidance, training can be inefficient and progress slow. That’s why I recommend investing in structured training plans and expert movement assessments. With the right coach, you can improve faster, avoi

When it comes to improving your performance in endurance and hybrid training, it’s easy to get caught up in the latest tech and apps. But I’ve found that sometimes, a scale down to low tech options can be refreshing and effective. While I am not suggesting to give up on data measurment wholesale, using a pen and paper (or digital notepad) to track your exercises and progress can be a game-changer. It pushes you to be intentional and reflective about your training instead of j
