i was just starting to read that thread after seeing it mentioned in multiple threads in this section. I will use it to help plan my upcoming season but i was just wondering if this particular setup that i posted above was ok and if anyone has a better suggestion for the week…i only plan on doing it for this week (maybe the next week if i don’t get 49) then i will switch to 100m/200m training. My reasoning for my setup is that seeing that during the school year there was alot of tempo 200m and up 600, 500, 450, 300 and very little speedwork i got good aerobic endurance and so forth. The last time that i did distances/volumes like that at a fast speed was about 5 weeks ago then about 2 weeks of championship meets. there was a dramatic drop in volume so i think some of the fitness maybe gone. (i’m figure this loss of fitness and poor warmup were why i ran about .8 slower than i was consistently running 5 weeks ago)
So the plan for this week is to have a hard lactate day to “revisit” endurance and specific endurance, the tempo days as recovery days going with the volume decreasing and speed increasing as the week goes on leading to the sunday meet.
thanks for the help so far.
