Recovery

★★★ Lifestyle habits that rob you from getting faster and stronger

There is no shortage of reasons to be upset these days and we all could use a modicum of escape from the hangover that is 2020. The year has been loaded with land mines that meet us both mentally and physically as athletes. In this coaches corner we discuss factors that are within your control to help you not only achieve your goals in 2021 but keep your sanity.

Running

★★★ Treadmill Incline Pace Conversions - Normalized graded pace

Due to a lack of wind resistance while running on a treadmill, the effort of running on a treadmill at 0% incline is less than that of running on a level road at the same pace. Our Tristar chart can help you get an approximate equivalent effort for zones between running on a treadmill at different paces and inclines and running outdoors on a level surface. Learn how you can use the normalized graded pace incline chart to target different pace zones with slower uphill running efforts.
