Episode notes
Rucking Experience
- David Maconi experimented with rucking, using a 45-pound weight, and found his heart rate stayed relatively low, even uphill.
- He suggests that rucking with heavier weight and inclines might elevate heart rate but becomes more like resistance training.
VO2 Max Testing Experience
- David finds VO2 max testing miserable, despite only the last few minutes being truly all-out.
- Brian hasn't done a true VO2 max test but has had it estimated in various ways.
Feeling Better with Age
- Both David Maconi and Brian Boorstein report feeling better now than they did ten years ago.
- Brian attributes this to reduced overtraining from his CrossFit days.
