if you're gonna monkey see, monkey do the plan of an unproven coach, you already are not a good coach, and whatever he has to say is likely gonna be an improvement on what you're already doing.
im a little surprised everybody wouldn't be interested in what Grant is up to in his training.
Please show some respect to me the way I have shown to my enemies! I'm reinforcing the thread with knowledge about the truest tradition of distance running, one that takes place in an environment like the stone ages without all the stones but with crucially all the beneficial sunlight, trees, forests, mountains, goats, cows and most importantly the non-existence of low and high bandwidth digital electronic devices and their base stations. The lack of anthropogenic RF and EMF technologies is the most cherished tribute to the truest roots of cross country running, and, all of distance running in general! Daniel Komen, Haile Gebrselassie, Said Aouita, Hicham El Gueurrouj, Moses Tanui, Robert Bannister and to a greater extent Paovo Nurmi, Eric Liddell from even earlier were part of this unspoiled tradition.
If you claim to be a true distance running fan like me, YOU MUST admit and desire to run, train and race and advocate for such with a complete moratorium ON ALL wireless anthropogenic RF and EMF technology for a start.
If I want to be even stricter, I think the days before the advent of Thomas Edison's DC electricity and Nikola Tesla's AC electricity would be an even better benchmark for the truest roots of cross country running, and, distance running in general. But I'll be kind to you LRC folks and relent that the period after 1900s (after the advent of electricity) can be a mid-way compromise between my unwavering RF and EMF standards, and, LRC's complete ignorance or apathy!
Okay, so you think high-performance distance running is all about just the training knowledge? You sound like those who think a loving relationship between husband and wife is all about just the sex and how passionate it is? Check your logic before commenting!
Society is always obsessed about the WRONG THINGS when it comes to trying to understand and master the very subject!
Seriously? Did you know how Daniel Komen nail his speed workouts back in the day? He probably wasn't even breathing at all running fast interval repeats precisely because he came from an existence far removed from not only wireless technology but also all other electrical and electromagnetic gimmicks! Shows how much you don't know about what provides the core foundation for ingenious high-performance training and racing ability.
You only care about superficial training theories that gives you a feeling of false sense of security and attachment and therefore think it could be the outright cause of success. Well, I'm now showing you the cause of the cause, or cause of the cause of the cause!!! If you had thought you found cause about anything on this planet, you can be sure I will always find one that causes that cause of yours!
Yes, his 2-mile unbeatable WR was broken by a Viking - style/place of living completely opposite. Things you say are interesting, but in many of your posts you state like you know it all, even though it's just your point of view and opinion. You never will be able to be in Grant's shoes, and therefore have no idea what he is made off and what life/universe forces he aligns with. But as you cite bible here, you can love him and other's on this board first of all.
Khamis the thread killer indeed. His satire sucks and are boring, why on earth is he allowed to derail every thread with his sub-standard trolling performance?
Grant does not want a coach or a group. He is going though a mid career crisis. He wants the opposite of a coach right now. Jerry told him when to race and not race and what to do. He just wants someone that will bend the knee to what Grant says. He’s actually calling the shots. That’s why he won’t go to a coach with a track record. Going to his HS coach is his only way to do that. I wish Grant well he seems a honest and nice dude. But training on your own at the world class level is just going to make it harder and harder for him to get a medal.

Hang on a second, in which part of my post did you think I don't love Grant or any human being on this planet earth? You do know that I love The Christ which commands that I love all human beings including Grant so why are you thinking off tangent stuff?
The universe or life forces that aligns Grant is the same one that would have aligned Daniel Komen, Jakob Ingebrigsten, Hicham El Guerrouj, Haile Gebrselassie etc, it's the same force belonging to the same God found in all the same human beings. Human beings are all made of the same matter and what would cause one to run fast or faster cannot and must not be different from another even if it seems different due to illusion of the eyes.
And no, Daniel Komen's 2 mile WR was not broken fairly by Jakob Ingebrigsten who was running on fake shoes, fake track surfaces and fake wavelights. My electromagnetic standards are far higher than World Athletics standards of performance. Also, training method and theory wasn't the one that gave Jakob any edge over Daniel Komen as training DOES NOT MATTER AT ALL. All training is illusion and ultimately the same, what one coach can do with one athlete is not a advantage or prerogative but an illusion of so.
The electromagnetic default of our existence then also means that my electromagnetic comments are universally true by default and not some off tangent opinion or comment of mine! Instead, it's rather the folks on LRC who HAVE FORGOTTEN or NEGLECTED the electromagnetic roots of their existence the same way they forgotten and neglected The Christ as their Savior!! They start treating my electromagnetic discourses the same way they treat The Christ which is with hatred and aversion! Repent LRC folks!!!
All I'm doing on LRC is paying homage to distance running's TRUEST AND MOST NATURAL ELECTROMAGNETIC ROOTS devoid of anthropogenic RFs and EMFs and to some extent the same towards The Christ since both are one in the same nature!! I'm trying to synchronize and cohere all our consciousness towards ONE common denominator----God and His unspoiled electromagnetic nature of creation!

Speaking with Moh Ahmed back in 2018 in a general conversation about the Ingebrigtsen model, he wished that Jerry did do lactate testing, but that Jerry was "old school". Given the number of injuries in the group over the years (Moh less than most) it boggles the mind that this wasn't introduced to the entire group years ago. American coaches have, in general, been late to the party incorporating this technology into the training process.
What does Ahmed do in practice to rehearse fouling other runners in tight races?
See, when you say "Repent LRC folks!!!" you contradict not only yourself, but the Bible's Christ - did he say, I did die for you on the cross now you do die on yours? No, he said, it's done. All good. Enjoy your life. Ultimately one creates her/his own life, and will judge her/himself. Your (no)training method is as good as Grant's. Let's see who races faster (no, not you against Grant, the other guys.)
Okay first of all the number one rule on LRC: you only listen to me and nobody else! I know how good my breadth and width of knowledge and understanding of distance sport is despite saying training means nothing at all in the ultimate performance or result of a high-performing athlete especially. Even prayer (to God) is 1000 times better effect on final race performance than training theory can cause!
Next I give you an analogy:
You hear of all sorts of training tailoring nonsense from supposedly prestigious distance coaches from around the world. This means you match the training to the athlete for specificity or customization rather than the athlete to the training. So then means if one training doesn't work you change to another type of training and keep on doing that until you 'supposedly' are able to arrive at one that is 'compatible' with the athlete, right?
Now from an inerrant, unchanging, inviolable and eternally true electromagnetic standpoint of view, since I'm an RF engineer and RF-sharpened in my behavior, such training doctrine is absolute nonsense, pure BS!
This is no wonder distance running is so backward and athletes are getting slower or only barely getting faster than the days of Daniel Komen and Hicham EL Guerrouj despite 10 times better supershoes, wavelights and doped track surfaces!
Now let me ask you if you are a man and you marry a woman do you then say 1 week later after your vows that the woman is not compatible and demand to find another woman that can 'tailor' to your needs and preferences? And then repeat that cycle until you supposedly are able to arrive at a woman who is finally compatible with your needs and preferences? Now do you suppose that this marrying and remarrying in theory can happen indefinitely with no end in sight??
Now then wouldn't you do better to at some point stop thinking that the fault lies with the women whom you want to keep changing to 'tailoring' to your needs and preferences but rather with you?? Isn't that the reason why they created a no-nonsense institution called marriage precisely to prevent such men from thinking they can keep changing and tailoring new women to themselves capriciously??
At a certain point, the tailoring HAS TO STOP!!! Between a man and a woman, marriage is the point at which this tailoring stops upon saying one's vows, no more changing thereafter! The change can only be made during dating or before marriage. If you find a woman incompatible you would do better to quickly and swiftly change to another!!!
The same damn thing applies to DISTANCE TRAINING IDEALOGY/PHILOSOPHY!!!
At some point you have to stop tailoring any training to the athlete precisely because the fault would have laid with the athlete by then!!! How many training philosophy/theories did Kenenisa Bekele cycle through from 1999 to 2011 or during his best years in cross country and track and field??? ZERO!! He only had 1 training theory, 1 training method, only trained 1 way. He only started having too many training theories when he moved to the marathon and look how inconsistent hence unsuccessful he has been at this event??
Kenenisa Bekele ought to have known that the advent of 4G from 2011 onwards and subsequently 4G+ in 2017 changed his physiology/engine ever so slightly therefore precisely making him prone to various training theories in order to cope with this change. Sometimes he was successful with certain changes and sometimes he wasn't but this inconsistency in his success was a direct precursor of his aging body's inability to cope with the newer anthropogenic RFs and EMFs in the air all around the world including his native Ethiopia which then directly affected the way he could train and adapt to the marathon event.
Training only appears to be the cause of things but is rather an illusion of cause! The human body is internally wirelessly 'electrocuted' constantly 24/7 by anthropogenic RFs and EMFs and failure to factor this 'electrocution' into training causes its illusion!!!
Athletes and coaches are all training blind thinking they 'know it all' by constantly changing and tailoring training day in and out by looking out for signs and symptoms of lack of adaptability in an athlete wherein actually these symptoms are rather those of electrocution by anthropogenic RF and EMF!!!
Woe to all 'expert' distance coaches!!!
What have I proven in this post???
A background in not only RF Physics but more specifically RF biological harmful effects is a highway to all knowledge sphere on the planet earth not limited to distance running. A literal free pass to 'know it all' with no boasting nor exaggerating. It really is, it's the GRAND-DADDY of all knowledge, together with the word of God in Scripture, there is nothing else to learn thereafter! You simply arrived at your destination, there is nothing more else to discover for all intents and purposes. If you want to know anything and everything, there is only 1 way to do so and that is through the RF and EMF filter/lens!

Rojo, JG, Wejo: Can we get a podcast with Coach Scannell?
ASAP!
Why not let him actually coach the guy first. Right now he’s just spitting out some BS with no results. I wish him luck , but it’s all just talk. So big deal he takes a lactate test. Does he actually know what to do with those numbers? To be honest , I highly doubt it
Grant does not want a coach or a group. He is going though a mid career crisis. He wants the opposite of a coach right now. Jerry told him when to race and not race and what to do. He just wants someone that will bend the knee to what Grant says. He’s actually calling the shots. That’s why he won’t go to a coach with a track record.

But training on your own at the world class level is just going to make it harder and harder for him to get a medal.
im not blindly buying into what he does, i just want to hear more of what he has to say. we've got a guy here who says he doesn't mind sharing his philosophy, whereas so many other coaches want to hide everything. you're not interested?
No , why listen to some unproven coach. Him coming on the message boards does nothing but boost his own ego. I agree with the previous poster. Let improve himself first. Too much monkey see, monkey do!
