This week on the Pacey Performance Podcast sees us continue last week’s conversation with Gareth Sandford. Following on from the topics of VO2 max, anaerobic speed reserve, training models and athlete profiling, Gareth continues by discussing building volume and endurance through anaerobic training. He explains how for team sports, this can differ, and athletes may need to be split into subgroups with some hybrid variations. He also explains why some coaches get this wrong and misunderstand – and what to do instead.
Gareth also tells us about how he would fit tempo training into an overall programme involving MAS and anaerobic speed reserve, and how to address the argument of sport-specific versus physiological training. For all this information and much more – including further expert resources and publications on anaerobic speed reserve – take a listen to last week’s instalment in addition to this one for Gareth’s outstanding insight.
This week’s topics:
Interval training to increase running stamina over longer distances
The subgroups of anaerobic training, and hybrid techniques
Key misinterpretations of Gareth’s training theories
