Joel's line of thinking on slow long-distance is really different than a lot of S+C coaches who work with MMA fighters who really push things like intervals... Not that anyone is right or wrong but he's the only one I've seen really emphasize it. I had Troy Andereson (former wrestler) write me a six-week program to get in shape for BJJ (before I train again--long story) and it has no running in it other than hill sprints; a bit of walking for active recovery though.
