Our Co-Founder and former pro cyclist, David Wiswell, tells Tri Swim Coach's Kevin Koskella, how EnduroPacks can help all athletes cope with the rigors of endurance training.
In this podcast, David discusses his background as a pro cyclist in Europe and the long hours of training which led him to seek ways to help his body maintain the level of training he needed and compete effectively. Over that time in which he tried many nutrition products, he found a system of regular replenishment of nutrients and minerals for hydration and recovery was the most effective means to maintain a high level of consistent training.
During the 30-day trial period, Eli Cohen (Team Director of Big Pistachio Racing) measured his Heart Rate Variability (known as HRV) and had his blood Hematocrit levels (HCT) tested pre and post trial. Read on to hear what he found out from these test results following his 30 day trial.

Road and visibility conditions deteriorate at this time of year, and with Holiday shopping and extra glasses of Holiday cheer, some drivers, who detest we runners to begin with, become even more dangerous.
Winter weather conditions send many runners scurrying indoors to the treadmill, but most still prefer running outdoors. Safety is again a factor that cannot be ignored.

For those of you that have experienced Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS), more commonly referred to as “Shin Splits”, you are aware of how debilitating this condition can be. Initially the pain can impede performance, and ultimately lead to complete cessation from running.
MTSS is one of the most common conditions affecting long-distance runners. Studies have demonstrated that it accounts for almost 20% of all running injuries. It is a classified as an overuse syndrome, especially in runners and jumpers.
The pain associated with the condition occurs at the mid to lower part of the leg, either along the medial (middle) border of the shin bone (tibia), or right behind it. The pain can vary in intensity, depending on the severity of the condition, and the amount of overuse that has occurred.
I see a lot of triathlon injuries as a New York City Chiropractor and I work with many triathletes to treat injuries or to help them prevent them in the first place. One of the top injuries that affects both runners and cyclists is Iliotibial Band Syndrome, also known as ITBS. The Iliotibial Band is a thick band of fibrous tissue that runs along the outside of the leg, from the hip to the knee. Together with the quadriceps, the band provides stability to the outside knee joint when you move.
