Do THIS To Live Longer
The Science Of HIIT Training
Analyzing endurance-based training we have three key aspects we want to think about to keep things as simple as possible. The first one is Long Slow Distance Training (LSD). With LSD training, we want to think about being a distance runner, a cross country skier, or a rower who is training for a duration of 50, 60, 70 minutes, or more to contribute to developing mitochondrial volume.
Assault Bike
Most HIIT sessions should be at least 20 minutes but shouldn’t last longer than 30 to 35 minutes. A great thing that can be done is pushing on the sled. Push the sled for 20 to 30 seconds as hard as possible. Then rest for 30 to 40 seconds. Do this on a 20-minute to 25-minute clock. The pushing of the sled on and off is continuous for a substantial amount of time. The quads will blow up, but the lungs will also burn and the body’s mitochondrial respiration will improve as well.
Recap
In this blog, we looked at the 3 basic forms of endurance-based training. We also went into depth about mitochondrial functionality. In addition, we provided four protocols that can be used today to improve overall endurance. Give it a go, let us know how it goes, and comment below!
