James and Paul discuss the different approaches to conditioning in sports, particularly focusing on the traditional energy system model approach. They explore the concept of an aerobic base and its definition, as well as the importance of aerobic energy and fat burning.
They also discuss the effectiveness of steady-state cardio and zone two training versus high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Paul explains the benefits of HIIT and how it can provide similar aerobic adaptations in a shorter amount of time. They also touch on the idea of lactate and its role in training, as well as the different types of high-intensity intervals and their physiological targets.
