Programming Ideas and Notes
20-30m
aerobic intervals (2-8m rounds) with rest periods of 30-120s (anaerobic also emphasized)
anaerobic intervals (10-120s) with rest period of 1-3m
long (60-120) to medium to short

circuit training is not strength training

or erg
3 strength training (ballistic, power/plyo, strength, ancillary)
- 3-5 sets, 3-6 reps

- power (plyo, ballistic, olympic lifts)
- anciallary 3-5, 6-12 reps
2 conditioning (erg or sprints)
| Work to rest ratio | Work (s) | Rest (s) | Primary energy system | Intensity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 to 120 seconds | 1 to 3 minutes | Anaerobic Glycolysis |
