EVERY training session should have a specific fitness goal, and subsequent sessions should gradually build towards a desired fitness outcome. Too many ‘professionals’ in the industry have a complete lack of knowledge when it comes to interval training. They prescribe something along the lines of 1km track repeats with 1 minute rest, repeated 5 times, with no understanding of what this session is trying to achieve, other than it being a “solid workout”.

Endurance performance has so far been made up of maximising VO₂ max and functional capacity. Movement economy is the second last physiological determinant of endurance performance before moving into external and nutritional influences. Movement economy refers to the efficiency at which somebody moves from one point to another.
