10: Zsombor Deak, Pro Ironman - Mastering Triathlon, Endurance and Life

Superhero Podcast

In this thrilling episode, I talk to Zsombor Deak, a professional long distance triathlete who has taken the world of triathlon by storm. The race that changed everything was the 70.3 Ironman Taiwan 2013 where he finished 4th, launching him to international fame.

Zsombor is a multiple top 5 World Cup finisher and multiple National Champion. Zsombor Deak is originally from Transylvania Romania and started his professional career in 2013 after moving to Australia.
In this episode we talk about all the aspects of Zsombor’s training strategies, including training, rest, schedules, equipment and food - Zsombor is known to follow a vegetarian diet and considers food and nutrition as a critical factor in athletic performance and success.
Our discussion is full of actionable tips, inspiration and practical tools and strategies for anyone who wants to improve as an endurance athlete, from beginners to pros alike.

After recording this, I was so pumped I just had to put on my running shoes, put on some epic training music (lately, Ætheric by Dimmu Borgir has often added a savage boost of energy to my workouts) and let the rubber hit the road, and I’m sure you’ll feel the same way!
