In this episode of The TrainAnything Show, John and Dylan lean into the post–April Fool’s reality check with a conversation on “How to Not Make a Fool of Yourself in Endurance Training.” From turning easy days into ego-driven performances to constantly chasing the latest training fad, they break down the most common (and relatable) mistakes athletes make—and why repeating them with confidence is where things really go wrong. The duo explores the difference between confidence and recklessness, why suffering shouldn’t be the goal, and how a lack of belief in your plan can quietly derail progress. Along the way, they keep it light but honest, reminding listeners that strong training isn’t flashy—it’s consistent, patient, and often a little boring. The takeaway: believe in simple things, act on them consistently, and stop calling the same mistakes your “training style.” Plus, a classic TrainAnything twist with their weekly check-in and an all-time absurd Bucket Pull to close it out. As always, it's a fun ride with some good nuggets, squirrels, and a below avg jingle? Only on the TrainAnything Show... Please like and subscribe!
