Endured the Strength BlocksThursday, October 17, 2024 - 2G - 60 MinutesE = Endurance S = Strength P = PowerThis morning's training session truly emphasized both stamina and power, particularly during the treadmill segment. The arrangement was straightforward yet demanding. Instead of adjusting speed, we maintained our base pace, making the progressive incline increases the genuine challenge. Beginning at a 1.5% incline, we alternated between one minute on an incline and one minute on level ground. With each return to the incline, it rose by another 0.5%. The true trial was sustaining this pattern for a full 23 minutes, culminating in a 7% incline — all without altering the speed. It was a steady climb that required concentration and endurance, especially as exhaustion kicked in.
