Sprints vs 4 mile steady runs

Yeah you're just dumb. Your body is never completely using the aerobic or anaerobic system. And do you really think lactic acid hasn't been recycled in 24 hours?

joe calzaghe use to run mostly uphill pretty slowly, i watched videos and he would just jog all uphill in the welsh mountains.

His workrate was one of the best.

So maybe aerobic conditioning is more important than you guys who love sprints think.

i will say this tho running slowly "uphill" for 4 miles is harder than sprinting for 10 30 second intervals.
depending how steep the uphill is ofcourse and how much you weigh.

why not do both but its hard to find a 4 mile uphill track although they do exist.

 

The simple fact of the matter is that your body will never have the anaerobic capacity to finish a fight. It is how well your aerobic system recharges your anaerobic system that will determine ones capacity to maintain high performance throughout a fight.

 

Yeah, but you can't assume that's ALL he did.
That's like seeing a 30 second video of Mike Tyson hitting a speedbag, then concluding that a speed bag = knockout power.

I have no doubt that running uphill slowly for 4 miles is hard. So is running a marathon (that's even harder). But I won't believe that marathon runners are better conditioned for boxing.

 

I think at the end of the day one is more aerobic and the other anaerobic so do both for boxing, it all helps along with the boxing training which also incorporates both.

 

You absolute ******. So because you're looking at a basic chart for the explanation of energy system zones you think that means that the other energy systems are completely switched off? Dear god atsch

Which relies on fast oxygen kinetics. Slow distance running doesn't develop that so it will have minimal impact on recovery. Repeat sprint intervals develop VO2max, buffering capacity and fast oxygen kinetics. You need to develop your capacity in a manner similar to its demands, it's a lot more complicated than simply aerobic vs anaerobic.

 

Are you treated for your bipolar disorder?

I never said they're compeletely switched off, in theory.
In practice however, according to you, he's effectively training his cardio when doing interval sprints? :rofl :!:

 

You should really have done some research into what is meant by cardio before you typed this and made yourself look like a ****ing moron.

 

Goes to show you actually DKSA periodization. :rofl

You have never actually done any sports yourself, have you, mr ''scientist''?
