How to do interval training

Interval training should be conducted based on RPE, pace or power - NOT on Heart rate.

A proper warm-up is required including some short strides to prepare optimally for the high-intensity workout.

Thereafter you will run for a set amount of time (or sometimes for a set distance) at a high intensity level, before jogging or walking for a set amount of recovery time.  Our workout instructions are based on RPE so you can learn to perceive the appropriate level of effort.

After you have finished the interval set(s) you can follow with a very gentle cool-down jog or some other easy cool-down exercises.
