This week's podcast guest is Sam Loch.  Sam is a returning guest and I had him on just over a year ago in Episode 018 - Hybrid Barbarian Training.

Sam has made some incredible progress over the last year in his training - both in the gym and on the Concept 2 Indoor Rower. Sam has deadlifted over 600 pounds and set two world records on the Concept 2. He holds the record for 1 minute and 1000 meters respectively on the Concept 2 Ergometer. He has also launched the Watt Farm, his online coaching business.

In this interview Sam and I catch up over the past year and he opens up about his current goal, the pursuit of the 500 meter world record on the Concept 2 Ergometer.

Here's what you will learn in this interview:

• Sam's progress and updates over the last year
• Setting two world records and deadlifting over 600 pounds
• "How much you can adapt to, not how much you can do"
• Why Sam prioritizes strength work first and then focuses on his Concept 2 Ergometer training
• The importance of visualization
• Why 2 sessions a day cuts recovery time
• The stimulus the higher drag factor provides
• Trying to make race pace feel as easy as possible
• "Technique is the way forward"
• and much more!
