Training Section
What about a section to discuss training for outdoors?
Just an idea, i have been evaluating my training routine, and wonder what others are doing.

training section
Make sure you are doing intervals of high intensity and not just long slow training. My two cents.

Re: Training Section
I added a poll question to your post to see how many people would be interested in seeing a new forum added for outdoor training. The poll will close in 2 weeks, so get your votes in now!jdub wrote:What about a section to discuss training for outdoors?

training
Interval training is just a way to add intensity to the workout, which will lead to better gains. Example, If you can maintain 30 min at level 4 on the stepper and feel as if this is your max, you should do level 3 for four minutes then jump to level 6 for one minute and back to 3 for intervals for the entire 30 min. There is alot more to this type of training, but it really gets the tired body to respond quickly, these should be added to longer non interval days and rest days also.
PS Bsquared, try a machine like a stepper where the foot does not come off the machine, this will be less pounding as opposed to a treadmill.
