It’s the last Friday of the month, so it’s time for our AMA.
We recently had a few comments around intense training and how to exercise while traveling. So I’m re-running an AMA I did on these two questions.
The first question is: How many intense workouts should I do each week? The answer explores:
How to tailor intense exercise to your goal.
The upsides and downsides of hard exercise.
What constitutes an intense workout? (Definition).
Research on the effects of high-intensity training.
How the effects of high-intensity training change as we age.
How to fit high-intensity exercise into your life depending on how many days a week you exercise.
The second question is: What’s a good exercise protocol for traveling? (Especially air travel, where you can’t bring equipment.) We look at:
How I approach exercise while traveling.
How to use hotel gyms better.
The psychological upsides of re-framing travel workouts.
The fundamental workout framework you can do in your hotel room or even the worst hotel gym.
See the post at TWOPCT.com for a transcript and show notes with the workout and links to research.
