I love this article, technical as it is. I might need to read it a couple more times and play the concepts around in my head for a while.
I made that same mistake of doing a murph during my NLP. In fact I did several murphs, marathons and a bunch of other things that were potentially detrimental to my recovery during this period; It's probably why for the longest time I was on an annoying plateau.
My thanks to Wagude for bringing thia story back to the top of the forum so I could stumble onto it.
I'm on the left side of the bell curve for NME, and the takeaway section re: low-NME folks might need more volume (or higher intensity at same volume) to apply adaptive stress is a studied confirmation of what I've been seeing in my own training logs.
Good stuff.
