The training associated with it would be to do your workouts just below it at a steady state and never cross above it to increase lactate, like running just under 10-k pace. I can't personally validate its effectiveness incorporating it early in base training because it's just something I read about in a case study. Seems more like something to be done closer to race season.getwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13343034389720556109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-1163789884325793572006-11-17T12:58:00.000-06:002006-11-17T12:58:00.000-06:00Massoman, yeah it's all relative.

Incorporating med/hard (albeit carefully & sparingly) does appear to be the way to go in base building. I'm looking forward to seeing how it works for you.<BR/><BR/>Also, these med/hard sessions seem to approach or resemble MLSS (maximal lactate steady state) training, or is that at a higher pace?<BR/><BR/>Happy running.getwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13343034389720556109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-1163724986841728302006-11-16T18:56:00.000-06:002006-11-16T18:56:00.000-06:00that's a good quote.8:45 is a tempo run pace for m...that's a good quote.<BR/><BR/>8:45 is a tempo run pace for me...<BR/><BR/>i guess its relative, eh? <BR/><BR/>its really about the effort, not the pace.massomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15119481354688861353noreply@blogger.com
