INTERCITY SPORTS REVIEW TRAINING GUIDE

NOTES

1. It should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway: one should be physically capable of fitness training before embarking on any exercise or training program. If there is any uncertainty whatsoever, a competent physician should be consulted before starting.

2. The basic training guide format is composed of five training sequences. Each sequence assigns workouts in proper proportions to meet the needs ranging from heavy speed emphasis to long distance endurance of the athletes using this system. Each sequence contains the proper proportions of aerobic and anaerobic training to meet the requirements of the events being prepared for. This feature is especially helpful when an athlete needs to change emphasis during the season (more speed work or more endurance). One need only use a lower sequence number for more speed work or a higher sequence number for more endurance work.

3.- The five training sequences are as follows:
Sequence 1 contains heavy speed emphasis,
Sequence 2 is designed for sprinters and those needing more speed work,
Sequence 3 is suitable for middle distance training,
Sequence 4 is for distance preparation and overall physical fitness while,
Sequence 5 concentrates on long distance and endurance.
