• Train With Awareness, Not Ego: Alex Ostberg on the Recovery Mistakes, Fueling Gaps & Mindset Shifts That Separate the Best From the Broken

  -The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rsAlex Ostberg is back to cut through the noise and get straight to what actually matters for smarter, healthier, and more effective training. This month’s theme? Train with awareness, not ego.First, Alex wrote about not chasing gains at the expense of your body. Top athletes play defense first. Solid sleep, real food, and smart recovery aren’t optional, they’re non-negotiable. If you’re always flirting with injury, you’re not training. You’re barely hanging on.Next, he examined the plate. If it’s low on carbs or protein, you’re killing your recovery and setting yourself up for a setback. What you eat says everything about how ready you are to train hard, and stay healthy doing it.Then he wrote about the myth of precision. Pace, mileage, VO₂ max, macros…they’re helpful, but they’re not gospel. Training isn’t about hitting perfect numbers. It’s about responding to what your body’s telling you today.To close out June, he examined how your body always speaks first. That tightness, that fatigue, that off mood? Don’tignore it. The best runners don’t push through red flags, they pivot.One month, four takeaways, and one big truth: better results come from fewer mistakes. Let’s make training something that builds you up, not breaks you down.In today's conversation, we break it all down. Don't miss the opportunity to become a better runner. Tap into the Alex Ostberg Rundown Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I’ll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-BUY MERCH BEFORE IT’S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.run-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz
