So this forum is the first that has really opened my eyes to some of the downfalls of aerobic exercise (increase prolactin, estrogen, decrease in androgens etc) but I’m curious if there is a safe length of time that wouldn’t be super detrimental
I have recently gotten into Spartan races and love them! I’ve always had a gift for running and love the training
If I were to specialize in shorter distances such as 3 mile and 6 mile races my training would rarely go over an hour long and would alternate from HIIT to hour long low stead state cardio
Do you think this is a short enough distance to train without all the negative stuff of say a marathon runner?
