So just being consistent for now. Building steady, never be in a hurry to make quick progress as that’s when problems occur. For now, with the S&C, stick to what you are doing, I’ve put it as a full body S&C workout on the dashboard but you can spread it across several days to include your Monday exercises. I’ve taken a bit of time of these few weeks, bad timing on your part I know but now had any time off for 15 months, so it was needed. Once I’m back I’ll get the S&C sorted for you 😁 Any problems Benni let me know.
60 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 60 minute swim replaces an easy run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.
The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.
Train key muscles & the fundamental movements: Squat, lunge, hinge, rotate, push, pull and gait 💪
80 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Try and keep it easy. It all depends on your current level. If slowly adding time to your long run the last 10-20 mins might be tough. Focus on good form.
