Time vs Task-Based Work

from Crafting Fitness Hosted by Sam Smith

In this episode, we are going to discuss Task and Time-Based Work. Below is a short list of characteristics of each: Time-Based * Athletes know the exact duration of their work period * Easier to determine the appropriate pacing strategy * Athletes can better leverage previous experiences to anticipate difficulty and effort requirements * Creates a more forgiving environment for finding flow and rhythm, especially with machine/erg work, enabling better effort regulation Task-Based * Athletes know the total workload to complete BUT must determine how long it will take * Forces athletes to identify the bottleneck for themselves * Challenges athletes to develop an appropriate pacing strategy based on the specific workload requirements
