Threshold – Zone 3 workout
Run, Ruck or Row
Max distance in 14 minutes.
Go as hard as you can for 14 minutes. Measure your distance so you can compare with next time
The majority of your aerobic development training should be zone 2 with additional weekly zone 5 sprint sessions. Once in a while, no more than once a week we can add in a zone 3 threshold workout to increase the raise the pace at which you switch from using fat as a fuel source to using stored glycogen
Zone 3 training can help you improve your endurance, speed, and mental toughness by teaching you how to deal with lactic acid build up and discomfort.
