In this episode of the Critical Oxygen podcast, I am joined by Coach Aaron Geyser where we discuss how to stay healthy during training and the importance of consistency and recovery. We emphasize the need to prevent sickness by analyzing lifestyle factors and managing stress. If sickness does occur, we recommend taking a conservative approach to returning to training, focusing on easy workouts and monitoring heart rate and HRV. We also highlight the importance of making informed decisions and seeking input from coaches or trusted individuals.
