Running with Jake - The PLODcast

Running with Jake - The PLODcast 055 (Sparkly sneakers, sweat science and a big ass critic)

Welcome to your weekly dose of running motivation.

 

On this episode, we speak with Andy Blow, the founder of Precision Hydration. As an athlete himself, Andy has made his own mistakes with hydration in his training, and he wants to help others avoid the same. 

There isn’t a simple answer to 'good hydration' as it isn’t one-size-fits-all. However there are certain principles that we can consider when looking at our own hydration needs, and a good place to start is understanding your sweat rate and type. Do you sweat a lot? Are you a ’salty sweater’?? 

One of the main functions of sweating is to dissipate heat, and we shouldn’t categorise is as a bad thing.

Running with Jake - The PLODcast 054 (Hairy hosts, fitness experts, and a dodgy massage)

Today’s guest is Marvin Burton - a Personal Trainer, Fitness Expert, and according to Jake (and a bizarre Dutch massage experience) he has a beautiful touch..?! Whether or not we get to find out exactly what this is all in a future episode of the plodcast, your guess is as good as mine! 

Marvin believes in keeping fitness simple, in most cases anyway, as he says it can be made for too complicated. As someone who suffered his own health issues from being an overweight kid, he is aware of the impact and mental scarring that life can cause.

Running with Jake - The PLODcast 051 (Capes, pocket squares, and cryptogenic strokes)

Welcome to your weekly dose of running my motivation

Today’s guest is Andy Dobinson. In February 2017, after a successful background in the world of cycling, competing in several 24hr challenges, Andy suffered a cryptogenic stroke.  After a brutal and extensive recovery process he is back on his feet and has plenty of running medals to prove it!  

He talks openly about his stroke, and the impact it had on his mind as well as his body. It has changed him in many ways, and for the better. He admits that he was obsessed with training (something not so easy to admit at the time) but since the stroke he is taking a much more rounded approach to his training, focusing on key elements such as nutrition, sleep, and rest. 

 

#AskJake:  Each week, we'll take one of your questions and Jake will answer it.  Today, Mike wants to know how best to juggle your training around a sports massage.
