Since the thread is off the rails already and my post got no traction…
Any thoughts on lactate clearance, recovery and impact on performance?
In my post linked above there is a YouTube clip from USATF Level II clinic where it is noted that early in the season we should have short recoveries, later in the season longer recoveries (Scott Christensen, the presenter, references the lactate curve as evidence and notes this tends to be “reverse” in what we normally do).
Thoughts?
