Horsepower first.the Long Term Athletic Development Model and Type II muscle fibers during peak velocity growthThere’s a lot of Couch to 5K programs, but there are no Couch to NBA programsIt’s much harder to help someone get strong or powerful than it is to help someone get in shape.Zone 2 takes so much time that realistically it doesn’t make sense to program if you only have 3 hours a week in the gymYour gas tank only has to be big enough, bigger might not be better. If you think of Racing they could put bigger gas tanks in the car to decrease the number of pit stops but a heavier car is a slower car. You’d lose every race.Interval training can improve Vo2MaxWhen it comes to the general population and we are thinking longevity and health then zone 2 makes more sense or I may be more willing to do long slow training for 45+ minutesSports = performance, wins, injury prevention, contractsGen Pop = blood panels, disability years, ADLs, longer life, decrease painMeet people where they’re at!
