This week on the podcast Mikki talks to
Dr Dan Plews about life, performance, continuous glucose monitors, HVR, sauna, strength training and optimising wellbeing (among other things). They answer your questions about all of the aforementioned and about his
EndureIQ courses and online community, and his
TriQ app, a new training platform (June 2002 ADDENDUM - Dan is no longer invilved in TriQ app). This is a long one, perfect for your longer training session (though not just for athletes) and drops Wednesday. I also have a giveaway attached, which you will hear throughout the podcast and see on my social media pages. Please, if you enjoy the podcast, subscribe and leave a review :-)
