TRAINING
If you are unable to make our session, try out this speedy number at home:
1 mile warm up, 60s rest
0.5 mile at hard effort pace with 60s walking rest
1 minute at all-out pace 120s walking rest
Repeat x3 & 1 mile cool down.
NUTRITION ADVISE
Now, it is key to note that there is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to this. However, this is a great way to base it off as a general guideline.This plate example is used for high intensity training/competition/race days. This is often used as a pre and or post training/race to help support recovery too.
Let’s explore the plate in more detail:½ carbs: Providing energy. Low fibre, white options are best to avoid GI upset. For example, white pasta, potatoes, rice, bread. ¼ protein: Helping to repair and build muscle, especially after. For example, chicken, fish, tofu. ¼ vegetables: For vitamin & minerals, supporting the immune system.
Don’t forget: one source of healthy fats such as olive oil, avocado, nuts/seeds. As well as plenty of water. Energy & nutrient needs will, as always, differ between individuals and training cycles at the time.
