Could one of the body’s most overlooked endurance muscles help support triathlon performance and recovery?

I’ve been diving into some fascinating research on the soleus muscle and its potential role in blood sugar regulation, recovery, and metabolic health.

What makes this interesting for triathletes is that it’s not about another hard session or more training load. It’s about what happens in the hours between sessions.

In my latest article, I explore:
• why the soleus matters for endurance athletes
• the science behind “soleus activation”
• and a simple protocol you can try during sedentary periods

It’s a really interesting area of emerging research and one I think endurance athletes should be paying attention to.

You probably already have what you need to improve…

They just need to use what they already have… better.

Consistency.
Pacing.
Recovery.
