Context
How this expert sees it
Exercise physiologist who explains muscle metabolism plainly and treats training zones as a shared language, not biological switches. Strongest on fat-burning and lactate physiology; his lens is endurance performance, so his points need translating before they apply to health, and he states strong opinions about other coaches bluntly.
