Dr. Phil Maffetone 4: The MAF Energy Bar, Debunking the Idea of ‘Naturally High Heart Rate’, What To Do When MAF Pace Isn’t Improving, Training for Stress Reduction, Avoid the Trap of Overtraining, and Much More
September 18, 2013It’s another jam-packed show with Dr. Phil Maffetone that’s hard to summarize into one paragraph! In this show we covers tons of useful topics including a recipe for the “Phil Maffetone Energy Bar” and why we don’t see it on shelves today, dealing with “failure” in a race, is there really such thing as a “naturally high heart rate,” what to do when you don’t see your MAF pace getting faster at the same HR for many weeks, how anaerobic training hinders aerobic development, using “B” races for hard training days (going anaerboic, how often and when it’s ok to do this), a training program for stress reduction, can you overtrain with MAF, issues with overtraining and learning to listen to the body, walking during a run in order to keep HR in check, is it ever ok to throw in a hard trail run or tempo during a base of MAF-focused phase, and much more.

So dose this mean I cannot will not be able to build a base using MAF if I play a sport like ice hockey during the off season?
