#32 Emil Holm and the journey from Stevns to the Olympic Games

In this episode, we have a visit from Emil Holm, Denmark's best male short-distance triathlete, who just competed in the Paris Olympics. Emil shares what it's like to train in Stevns with his father as a coach, and how he balances the three disciplines of triathlon – swimming, cycling and running. We also talk about how he finds the right balance between intensity and volume, and what a typical week looks like for a triathlete at his level.

Emil talks about his preparations for the Olympics and the adjustments he has made to his training to perform optimally. We also discuss how his diet and view of energy have changed over the course of his career, and how we at Noutron try to help Emil stay at his best.

The mental aspect is also a big part of Emil's journey. How does he stay motivated when training gets tough? How does he handle the pressure of international competitions?

Finally, we talk about Emil's future plans, his dreams for the Olympics, and how he sees the sport of triathlon developing in Denmark.
