    I want to know how I can increase work capacity and decrease recovery time. Will just training more each week increase my work capacity? What if I feel really tired, should I just push through it and still go for training?

    Nope. Over training which will lead to loss of muscle which in time will lead to a slow, painful death.

    Correct nutrition is vital. Put the right fuel in at the right time to aid training and recovery.

    Lots of people couldnt get there Heads round it at first, different concept. All the energy systems work more efficient, plus recovery times on HIT training are halved, it applies to anything you do on it.

    Congratulations on your device, scrap. You should try to market it in the US to hospitals.

    We are still testing, York uni next who are working with Army at Catterick. Seems great for neurological problems, as we have a 4 year old with PMD walking. Plus all the athletes who have used it, have dropped their P/B by massive amounts. One Triathlete who is in the G/B squad knocked 28 minutes of his time in 6 months.

    Decrease the amount of work you do, by making yourself a more efficient mover. Lift weights properly and do plyometrics.

    There's nothing to see, it's a rehab tool with nothing to even really back it's effectiveness for that, nevermind improving an athlete. The 'Research' page on the website is laughable, it has some links to pdf's that say it uses the muscles (omg it must be effective) that are used with normal running on an EMG. It says it "Could be used to supplement exercise programmes". So could anything, and that line is indicative of it's real usefulness to anything. To claim that it could help an athlete is completely unfounded and wouldn't make any sense, a vertical treadmill :lol:
    The rest of the website is quackery and just an effort to sell a product. There is also nonsense on the page talking about the 'posterior chain' and how it's better than a leg curl. Sure it may be better than a leg curl for strengthening the hamstring eccentrically but it sure as **** isn't more effective than RDL's or Nordic hamstring exercises (actual strengthening exercises utilising the muscles in the way they should be used).
    The day that any serious athlete uses that is the day they cease to become a serious athlete. It may have it's place as a rehab tool somewhere where they try anything and like to market themselves as 'different' or 'revolutionary', but they'd need to have a lot of money to throw away. If you're trying to flog a new fitness product you need to make it affordable and have a sellable gimmick, somebody gave the creator of verti-run some bad advice.
    Maybe these things are obvious to everyone and the guy I quoted was making a joke :think If so apologies for the rant.

    Push through it.
    Identify what sort of training enables you to sustain a high heart rate. E.g. I find the cross trainer/elliptical does the trick for me whereas the cycling machine doesn't because my legs aren't strong enough . Note: keep your heels grounded on elliptical, not doing so means you are using gravity and not using your leg muscles as much.

    Mixing it up helps. Rowing, pull-ups, cycling, elliptical, abs routine - all with little rest periods. Interchanging between all of them.

    It's mental.

    Make sure you fuel yourself beforehand and aid recovery afterwards with fruit and protein.
