Half the volume, better results

Who it’s for

No time for long runs, but want to improve fitness rather than just maintain it.

How it works

One-minute cycle: 30 seconds very easy, 20 seconds moderate, 10 seconds near max. Five cycles back-to-back make a 5-minute block; do 3–4 blocks with 2 minutes rest between. In Bangsbo's study, cutting weekly volume by 54% with this protocol shaved 21 seconds off 1500m, 48 seconds off 5k, lowered systolic blood pressure by 5 mmHg, and reduced LDL cholesterol. The control group saw no change.

How load increases

Increase the number of blocks: three, then four. Speed on the 10-second segments improves naturally as fitness builds.

Deload

Every fourth week: two blocks instead of four.
