Last August I rode off from Marseille into the Calanque national park, including a decent climb, at 34 degrees, with a single 550ml water bottle thinking there would be water sources everywhere 😅 I actually got quite scared and turned around…
On a different note, I just clocked 16.6mmol/L after a near max effort 4min, then a max effort 60sec (with 10mins easy in between)😅🙈 more Zone 1-2 I guess
Great insight and a highlight of the common mistake which is overtraining. How do you usually coach people getting started in health/fitness/triathlon to gauge their training load efficiently?

Definitely want to be careful with tempting heat stroke when not acclimatized.

That is scary, 41.1 degrees body temp is nasty and enough forRhabdomyolysis….

Tracking Load
I’ve got an article coming on this topic. Not this Monday, but the one afterwards.
Over on Endurance Essentials. It’s called Building Consistency.
My preferred approach is to focus on getting a consistent routine established - for at least 15 weeks.
