Q&A #25 - RPE or power/pace in workout prescriptions, best cross-training for running, and Big Days and 70.3 races in preparation for an Ironman
 
  • Is it better to use subjective Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) or objective outputs like power or pace when prescribing workouts?
  • What is the best cross-training method for running when carrying an injury? 
  • Where in your Ironman training program should you include Big Days, and how should you prepare and recover from them? 
  • How should you taper and recover from 70.3 races in the lead-up to an Ironman, and should you race them at planned Ironman intensity?
