#35: Workout 3

Sprints - No Equipment Needed

This workout is my own personal speed run. All you need to execute it is an open area and a timer app.

  1. Slow run for 10 minutes (keep heart rate under 180 - age)

  2. 4 x maximum sprints for 1 minute followed by 1 minute active recovery (walking)

  3. 4 x maximum sprints for 0.5 minute followed by 1 minute active recovery (walking)

  4. 4 x maximum sprints for 15 seconds followed by 45 seconds active recovery (walking)

  5. Slow run for 2 minutes (cool down)

This training is ideally done in an open area (as laps).
