Fartleks Explained - The basis of our Endurance program

The first 45 seconds of this video explaines the basic idea of fartlek training. In the Low Intensity Phase of the program, Set out a rectangular course where two sides oppsite each other are about 20 to 25m in length with one end being 10m long and the other end being 15m long.
Move continuously around the rectangle, changing speeds at each corner. Keep a sequence of jog a side - sprint a side - walk a side and repeat. This will give you different recovery periods and different periods of maximum effort.
Two basic rules:
1. When you are sprinting you SPRINT!
2. You do not stop moving during the walking or jogging efforts.
This is a great way to build endurance and discipline as well as improving your recovery times.
ENJOY!!!
