If the weather is warm, consider taking some fluids during the workout. Plan your course so that you pass a water fountain, or carry fluids in a belt. Replacement fluids work better than water for long runs, not only to provide energy during the run, but to help you recover more rapidly after the run. Russell H. Pate, Ph.D., director of the Human Performance Laboratory at the University of South Carolina, considers variety the key to any training program. There is risk associated with high-intensity exercise.
Experience indicates that such workouts are more demanding and stressful.
Carrying on high-frequency training for prolonged periods is risky in terms of overtraining and even riskier in terms of injury. All rights reserved.
