be daunt|ng l've d|scovered l get the best
resu|ts fromtra|n|ng |n a teamenv|ronment
where you can he|p each other and l've
found that tra|n|ng outdoors w|th Br|t|sh
M|||tary l|tness eamsports are great
too, such as f|veas|de footba|| where
you don't want to |et anyone down

|nvo|v|ng partnerbased exerc|ses But
the best th|ng |s l can sw|tch off when l'm
there When l tra|n after a busy day l |||e to
be to|d what to do, and hav|ng a structure

hard to come by when you tra|n a|one
Somet|mes peop|e g|ve |n too eas||y |f
they're hav|ng a tough sess|on But |f you're
g|ven just a b|t of encouragement you can
go further than you rea||se And l a|ways
th|n| |t's on|y the |ast two or three reps
that ma|e any d|fference to your body lf
you're go|ng for ten reps, the f|rst seven

a|||mportant so don't cheat yourse|f

ushing yeur cardie fitness further
than yeu theught essible
0o|ng steady-state card|o
exerc|se a fewt|mes a week
|s a great f|rst step on the
road to f|tness |f you've never
tra|ned or are com|ng back
froma |ong |ay-off. |f, however,
you don't regu|ar|y push your
||m|ts |n your sess|ons, your
progress w||| soon sta||. '|f you
want to jump-start your card|o
f|tness, |nterva|s g|ve you more
bang for your buck than any
other formof tra|n|ng,' says
runn|ng coach Mart|n Ye|||ng
ye|||ngperformance.comI
Porma||sed by Cerman
coach Wo|demar Cersch|er |n
the J930s, |nterva| tra|n|ng |s a
method of exerc|se that uses
a|ternat|ng per|ods of work and
rest. 1he |dea |s that |ntense
exert|on fo||owed by rest reaps
more f|tness rewards than
susta|ned gent|e exerc|se.
5tud|es have shown |nterva|
tra|n|ng |s better at boost|ng
stam|na, deve|op|ng VD2 max
see r|ghtI and even burn|ng
fat than |onger sess|ons at a
cons|stent, |ower |ntens|ty.
50UND5TRUCTUR
'|nterva|s can be app||ed to
any k|nd of card|o tra|n|ng,
but the sess|on needs to
be structured,' says !oe
1urner frompersona| tra|ner
academy the 1ra|n|ng Room
thetra|n|ngroom.comI. '0ec|de
how|ong each per|od w|||
be, howhard your |ntense
per|ods w||| be, howmany
|nterva|s you'|| do and how
much recovery you'|| have.'
'1he ba|ance of effort and
recovery needs to be just
r|ght,' says Ye|||ng. '1h|s w||| be
d|fferent depend|ng on your
f|tness |eve| and what you
want to ach|eve. Por examp|e,
to deve|op top-end runn|ng
speed you need to run faster
for |ess durat|on w|th |onger
recovery. Por endurance, you
need to run at a |ower |ntens|ty
for |onger w|th |ess recovery.'
UlLDM UP
Cons|stency |s |mportant. '|t's
no good go|ng hard on the f|rst
few|ntense per|ods, then be|ng
too t|red for the rema|n|ng
ones,' says 1urner. '5tart off
conservat|ve|y and s|ow|y
|ncrease the |ntens|ty once you
can comp|ete each sess|on.'
|nterva|s aren't easy, but
that's the po|nt. 1he a|most
|mmed|ate f|tness ga|ns you
make - and keep mak|ng -
mean they're worth the effort
and are far more effect|ve than
s|owp|ods that on|y serve
to wear out your tra|ners.

k|ngsbury exp|a|ns 'So we focused on eat|ng
very c|ean and very hea|thy, but |arge vo|umes
to |ncrease musc|e mass over that per|od'
lo||ow|ng the end of that shoot, !ac|man had
three months to prepare for nc Wo|vcrinc and

'On we|ghttra|n|ng days we'd do carbs, and
on nonwe|ghttra|n|ng days we'd have very
