5 Tips on Optimising Training Load
Training for a running event?
Increasing your training load too quickly will put you at risk of an overuse injury. These are common when people do not plan their training appropriately. Read our 5 tips to minimise such an injury.
Tip #1:
decrease injury risk by slowly building up training load
Tip #2:
Training load = time spent exercising + intensity level
Tip #3:
don’t run regularly? Start with a short duration, mostly walking and a small amount of running
Tip #4:
Training must start months before your goal event
Tip #5:
Slowly increase your training Load until you can run consistently for the distance of your event
