Comments:
It seems that regardless of the level of athlete they seem to hit the wall at 60 seconds of sprinting. Intensity drops off dramatically at this point. A sub 60 sec 400m sprint is respectable for anyone who is not competitively competing in track and field. Due to the fact we are training at higher intensity today I shortened it to 300m to keep them around the 60 sec mark. We are not trying to train recovery as much as max effort here. I am giving them more rest so they can run harder. Walk the remaining 100m to the start point and when the clocks hit 2:30, get some.
The second two circuits are meant to be done quickly. They should burn and be difficult. Drop weight if you start to hit failure.
