Ep. 17 Volume Vs. Intensity, Are Rest Days Necessary, Ranch Shenanigans

About this episode

The episode discusses training intensity and volume, the necessity of rest days, and includes some ranch-related conversation.

On this episode, we switch it up a bit and divide more into the training/coaching side of our lives. We discuss our opinions on the importance and distribution of training intensity and volume, tackle the topic of rest days in athlete's schedule, and as always have to throw in some ranch talk to round this rodeo out!
