Under Training is Better Than Overtraining with Michellie Jones

Triathletes love to go hard all the time. Smashing themselves in every session and feeling guilty for going easy, or taking time off. I know because I've been guilty of it myself! We all have been..

But more is not always better.

Overtraining is a real problem. Joining me on the podcast for this episode is Triathlon legend Michellie Jones. She is incredibly passionate about athletes training strategically to maximise their performance.

She generously shares her philosophy on light training days and how she likes to structure a training week with her athletes.

Tune in for some really practical advice to ensure you’re not overtraining and digging yourself a hole.

Michellie Jones is a Triathlon Legend

Starting her triathlon career in 1990, she’s won two ITU World Championships in 1992 and 1993. She won the Xterra triathlon world championships in 1996. A silver medal in the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. Then decided to go long and became the Ironman World Champion in just her fourth full distance Ironman in 2006.
