Highlight: Exploring Endurance Through Psycho-Biological Theories
Description
In today's Lattice Podcast highlight, host and coach Josh Hadley sits down with coach Cameron Hartley to explore two interesting theories. The ‘Central Governor Theory’, which suggests that a system in our brain signals when it's time to stop exercising to prevent potential harm, and the ‘Psycho-Biological Theory’, which integrates psychological constructs into our understanding of endurance performance.
Highlights from this discussion include:
- Understanding exercise cessation: The role of the brain in regulating physical limits according to the Central Governor Theory.
- Integrating psychology in endurance: How the Psycho-Biological Theory emphasises the perception of effort and motivation.
This episode is just a highlight from a more in-depth conversation that covers additional insights on endurance performance and how these theories can be applied in training. For the full discussion, tune in to the complete episode available on all major podcast platforms.
