Do I need to fuel every training session with sports nutrition?
Sprints
Repeat 5-15s runs with near maximum effort and full recoveries.
These can also be performed as strides, progressive runs, hill sprints or flying sprints.
The main aim of the session is to develop or maintain maximal sprinting speed without producing high levels of lactate.
