  5. 4 Weeks Of Ironman Training (What I've Learnt)

    Show notes

    Jamie is 7 months out from Ironman Texas, so I sat him down to find out what he's learnt so far in his Ironman training and to test his cycling lingo. Some answers were better than others.

    Because if you're going to swim 2.4 miles, ride 112 and run a marathon, you need to know your cassette from your chainring (or at least be able to fake it).

    Whether you're training for your first Ironman or your fifth, this is not one to miss.

  7. VO2 Max Explained... Does It Actually Matter?

    Show notes

    VO2 max gets you into the room.

    Running economy gets you the result.

    Your watch says your VO2 max is up - cool. But chasing that number won't make you faster. It's one piece of a much bigger puzzle.

    Train hard. Stay curious. Don't gamify the number over the outcome.

  14. Our Most EMBARRASSING Gym Stories...

    Show notes

    This week, Fergus sits down with Head Coaches Kieran and JB for a proper no-holds-barred confessional.

    Failed lifts. A calorie surplus that got embarrassingly out of hand. They're airing it all. Because here's the thing - even the coaches leading your training didn't start out knowing what they know now.

    This episode is proof that the road to "knowing your stuff" is paved with cringe.

  15. How to TRAIN and FUEL Like a Pro Cyclist

    Show notes

    In this week's episode Tom and Kieran steal a few lessons from the Tour de France - because if you're not watching it, you should be.

    They get into why the pros are proving that lighter isn't always faster (looking at you, Jonas Vingegaard), why chasing watts beats chasing kilograms, and why so many endurance athletes still leave their fuelling to chance while obsessing over marginal gains elsewhere.

    Kieran also shares how swapping some running volume for cycling transformed his own performance - and why you don't need a £10k bike to get the benefits.

  17. The Hypertrophy Rules That ACTUALLY Matter

    Show notes

    In this week's episode, Head Coach JB goes solo to break down hypertrophy training - what's actually worth your time, and what you can ditch.

    He covers the non-negotiables (training close to failure, why progressive overload isn't what you think it is, full range of motion) and the stuff that's overhyped (rep range obsession, constantly rotating exercises, chasing the pump over actual progress).

  18. How to Hybrid Train When You're Travelling

    Show notes

    Traveling doesn't have to mean your training falls apart. Head Coach Kieran -who spent years training across the world during his military career - shares practical strategies for staying on track when you're away from your usual gym and equipment.

    Whether you're on holiday, traveling for work, or just away from your usual setup - this one's for you.

  19. From Road to Trails: Everything You Need to Know

    Show notes

    In this week's episode, Kelly and Kieran dive into everything you need to know about making the switch from road to trail running.

    From training your legs for brutal descents (not just the climbs) to why hiking might be your secret weapon for ultra prep, they cover the key differences that catch most people off guard.

    They also get into essential safety kit, why spending time on your feet matters more than you think, and - most importantly - why trail running might just be the most fun you'll ever have in your trainers.

  20. The TRUTH About Recovery

    Show notes

    In this week's episode, JB sits down with Omnia's nutritionist Tom McClure to talk about something everyone trains through but not many people actually nail - recovery.

    And no, they're not here to sell you a cold plunge tub.

    If you've ever felt like you're constantly trying to rescue yourself after training rather than actually recovering - this one's for you.
