|
| Also called fartlek training, intervals are used by competitive endurance athletes for improving speed and conditioning. |

|
| I would take my heart rate first thing every morning and record it on a graph, and bore on about anaerobic thresholds and fartlek training. |

|
| This includes long slowdistance training, pace or tempo training, interval training, circuit training and fartlek training. |
|
