Pace Yourself: Max Finkbeiner and Kate Caines on Metabolic Conditioning

"'Imagine you’re doing thrusters, but you can breathe like you’re going for a walk.' Max Finkbeiner and Kate Caines have developed a methodology to help do just that. By using science, data, targeted assessments, and technology, they derive relative intensity personalized to individuals. These athletes can then use this information to inform their training, making sure to work on all of their energy systems with their own personal targets in mind."
