It’s no secret that sprinters will do anything to avoid endurance training and distance runners would rather go the extra mile or ten before working on speed drills. Such is the nature of humans and wanting to stay in our proverbial “comfort zones”. However, avoiding training in a variety of different energy zones is done at our own peril. Only through the adaptation of multiple stressors do we really become the best version of ourselves. The best way to understand this can be done with a simple formula: stress + rest = growth.

Interval training in its simplest form, is running for a specific amount of time or distance at a designated pace with a set amount of rest or recovery in between reps.
