Welcome to episode 8 of The Matchbox Podcast presented by Ignition Coach Co. Hosts Adam Saban and Andrew Giniat are joined by Ignition co-founder, Dylan Johnson. Andrew talks Boulder Roubaix from his first experience at the iconic Colorado classic, Dylan mentions his 4x40min tempo repeats from last week, and Adam is preparing for a golf tournament?! This weeks topic, periodized training, is a fairly common subject but we each added some unique flair to the conversation to provide insight into our own approaches to periodizing a season. We also cover another listener question at the end on aerobic decoupling, so stick around to hear some of our takes on that.
