In short IT; There are two walk outs:

a) Pace endurance work out.
b) Speed endurance work out.
in a) pace, distance, interval are kept constant. Only the NO of repetitions are increased.
in b) distance, interval and the NO of repetitions are fixed and pace varied as training advances.
b. Rest until recovery is partially completed (active rest).
c. Repeat the distance.

The Interval Training permits the athlete to achieve the greatest possible work load with the least amount of fatigue. This training is made up of five basic variables.

  1. The duration of the work interval.
  2. The intensity of activity during the work interval.
  3. The duration of the recovery interval.
  4. The intensity of activity during the recovery interval.
  5. The number of times the work intervals are repeated.
