"How do I go about improving my #TrainingResponse ?" Some ideas below👇

A little #FunWithData today... Looking at how much of an influence different factors have on #TrainingResponse (Banister's k1) using a Decision Tree model.... 1/CTL (negative) CTL has the largest influence on training response for most athletes. This is just the nature of diminishing returns, i.e. novices respond more/faster than athletes with a long training history because they're starting from zero. 2/HRV (positive) A high HRV is a good sign that the athlete will get good fitness benefit from a high training load that day. Particularly when paired with the below... 3/TSB (positive) The higher the TSB, the more training response an athlete is likely to get from a given amount of load )of course, it must be <0 to qualify as load, but not too much <0) 4/RHR (negative) When resting heart rate is higher than normal, the athlete's training response is likely to be compromised. 5/Soreness (negative) When soreness is higher than normal, the athlete's training response is likely compromised. For this reason, we should consider each of the above when deciding to load an athlete.

A little more on #TrainingResponse: Personally, happy to see some of the highest training response that I have seen in a very long time. Things that have led to this... * I'm ~10lbs heavier than 'normal' and spent Oct-March lifting.🏋️‍♂️ * I am back into regular Yoga. 🧘 * I got away in May for some quiet #ForestBathing in Idaho🌲 * Pretty much all recent training has been z0-1🚶 * Because of all the above, my #HRV (lnRMSSD) is ~10% higher than normal at this time of year 🫀

The better you become, the more important it is to monitor #TrainingResponse. Healthy novices respond to pretty much anything for some time. Beyond novice, the timing and content must be continually monitored to make sure the athlete is still responding to the training.

The most 'sure fire' way to decrease body weight and waist circumference: A HIGH amount of LOW intensity exercise! (As a bonus, I've found, it's the most sure-fire way of improving aerobic fitness too! 😊) #TrainingResponse
