This video breaks it down with simple explanations and examples!In this video, I tackle a fantastic question from the comments about the differences between interval runs, tempo runs, and fartlek runs. Running is a straightforward activity, but the terminology can often make things more complex than they need to be. Here’s a simple breakdown of each type of run and their specific purposes: Here’s what we’ll cover:What Is an Interval Run? Learn about interval training, where you alternate between high-intensity running and recovery periods. Understand how this session boosts speed and endurance.What Is a Tempo Run? Discover the concept of tempo running, characterized by sustained, comfortably hard efforts at a pace just below your lactate threshold. This session enhances your aerobic capacity and race pace.What Is a Fartlek Run? Explore fartlek training, a mix of continuous running with varied intensity bursts. This flexible workout improves speed and endurance while adding variety to your training.Examples of Each Session: I’ll provide practical examples for interval runs, tempo runs, and fartlek runs, so you can easily integrate these sessions into your training plan.Understanding the Crossover: Find out where the lines blur between these types of workouts and how to use them effectively to achieve your running goals.By the end of this video, you’ll have a clear understanding of each type of run and how to apply them to your training for optimal results.Music track: Back in Time by AylexSource: https://freetouse.com/musicRoyalty Free Background Music
