Prioritizing Fat Metabolization for Efficient Running
1:00:49 - 1:08:21 (07:31)
Prioritizing fat metabolization is a more efficient way to recover and breakdown, recommended by Dr. Jeff Volek and Dr. Dominic DiAgostino. Training at low intensity reduces injury and muscle damage and helps maintain a high volume consistently with a low injury risk.

Ultra marathon runners should prioritize working on their weaknesses and building a strong aerobic foundation before tailoring training to specific races.
1:00:49 - 1:03:17 (02:27)
Summary
Ultra marathon runners should prioritize working on their weaknesses and building a strong aerobic foundation before tailoring training to specific races. Training should be consistent year-round with emphasis on addressing physiological reactions and personal feelings.

A huge base building phase where you go up to the maximum aerobic function or aerobic threshold is important for runners, but it can be tricky without lab testing.
1:03:17 - 1:06:13 (02:55)
Summary
A huge base building phase where you go up to the maximum aerobic function or aerobic threshold is important for runners, but it can be tricky without lab testing. It is recommended to work with these options on top of a massive aerobic base, which would likely make up 80% of the work.

The MAF 180 formula can benefit fat metabolization, recovery, and reduce injury risk for consistent low-intensity training.
1:06:13 - 1:08:21 (02:08)
Summary
The MAF 180 formula can benefit fat metabolization, recovery, and reduce injury risk for consistent low-intensity training. It's a good formula to capture a large demographic of individuals for a universal plan.
