  Do Training Zones Actually Matter? (with Aitor Altuna)

  Sep 3, 20261h 12m

  Everyone knows what Zone 2 is. Or do we? In this episode of the Nduranz Podcast, Alex Rhodes and Dr. Tim Podlogar are joined by Aitor Altuna, cyclist and PhD researcher at the University of Exeter, to make sense of training zones and what they actually mean in practice. They discuss why Zone 2 can mean different things depending on the model you use, the difference between polarized and pyramidal training, why perceived effort still matters even when you have power, pace or heart rate data, and how nutrition should support the purpose of each session. You’ll also hear why making every workout harder isn’t necessarily better, how low-intensity training helps you accumulate more sustainable training load, and what amateur athletes commonly get wrong when structuring their week.

  In this episode of the NDURANZ Podcast, Alex and Dr. Tim Podlogar break down the fueling behind the sub-2 marathon, looking at how much carbohydrate the top athletes reportedly used and whether 70g, 100g, or even 120g of carbs per hour can make a real difference. They also explain why marathon fueling starts before race day, how carb loading and low-fiber eating can help, and what everyday runners can learn from elite marathoners without blindly copying them.

  AI vs Nutritionist: Who Gives Better Fueling Advice?

  Apr 23, 202656 min

  As AI becomes more common in training and nutrition platforms, we decided to put it to the test. In this episode, we compare AI-generated answers with real sports nutrition practice, looking at questions around race fueling, coffee rides, and cramp prevention. Some of the advice is reasonable, but much of it lacks the context, nuance, and practical detail needed to make it truly useful for endurance athletes.
