OS Best Practices Doc - Input Needed...

Folks, I am trying to compile a doc with our OS Best Practices. Think: indoors vs outdoors, how to test indoors, should you do P90X, etc. Just a quick sheet that folks can scan to make sure they are doing (A) what works for them and (B) what's best (in that order).

I have put the document up here on google docs and anyone can edit/add to it. I only ask that you:

  1. Don't take anything away. If you want to get rid of something that's been written, please just use the strikethrough formatting.
  2. Please add your input by Wednesday 12/28. 

Here is the document..have at it and THANKS!!!

  • Looks like a good list of questions so far! Under the road bike/tri bike one, include something about in vs out of tri bars for OS work intervals?
  •  I added the aero bar/ base bar one that Jim mentioned (and I agree is a good one).  I also added a few others.

  • Coach P, looks good. Question - for most of us the OS is done in the pain cave / power penthouse, do you want a link to how to set up the cave? Example direction on fans is important, also on how to protect the bike and floor from the lake of sweat that will be produced.
  • I added a few things. Mostly questions I've either asked myself or ones I've seen others ask.
  • I couldn't edit the document for some reason (I'm not that computer savvy) I was going to suggest along with the core stuff, when is the best time during the week to work on running/cycling technique and/or functional strength, if it should be done, etc.
  • Dear all added 2 links into the document.

    1.) the link to the wiki page how to build up run volume for half marry.

    2.) Link to a new wiki page how to pace the 5k run.

    Hope this helps.
