Today I had to do my weekly HIIT Session. This time I decided to perform Long Shuttles (800m+) in HIT Zone 1, in my case between 101 to 106 % of critical power (321 Watts). As my track was not flat it was quite challenging to hold the power inside the zone when the elevation of the terrain changed within the intervals. From pushing slowly and powerful uphill to running with a very high cadence downhill and a high need of concentration and proprioception. Most time I pushed harder than necessary, because I was afraid of falling below my threshold. Fortunatly I was able to push through all intervals as I planned, so it was a very effective session to increase my VO2max. 💪🏻🔥💥🚀 #pushathletiktraining #transalpinerun #zugspitzultratrail #trailrunning #marathoncoach #endurancetraining #energysystemtraining #strengthandconditioning #laufcoachdueren #marathonvorbereitung #pushyourlimits #noexcuses #trainhardfighteasy #trainlikeapro #firstbeat #garminconnect #trainingpeaks #stryd #runwithpower https://www.instagram.com/p/B-45c7Bh8Ml/?igshid=cpnb0ev0h16m

Not enough time for recovery results in a low status of your body battery which means less power and an increased risk of injuries. Today I had such an effect and decided not to follow my trainingplan with long shuttle HIIT. Instead I decided to do a short run. Every km counts! #pushathletiktraining #transalpinerun #marathontraining #marathoncoach #noexcuses #trainhardfighteasy #nogutsnoglory https://www.instagram.com/p/B-ud5wuh0eh/?igshid=14ed8jo2g4ru0

A hard week ended today with a 31 km FatMax Run through the forrest of „Huertgenwald“ together with my new Trans Alpine Run teammate „Seb“. It was a great day and very hard at the end, because I had no time to eat before the run, just a piece of gouda and a fast coffee with milk. But I like challenging myself and pushing my limits! #pushathletiktraining #transalpinerun #marathontraining #trailrunning #huertgenwald #pushyourlimits #marathoncoach #trainhardfighteasy #unstoppable #challengeyourself #firstbeat #garminconnect #rureifel #noexcuses (hier: Hürtgenwald) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-nKPY-h10u/?igshid=8gpwu4dzd9g0

This is how a HIIT should look like on your performance sheet! In this case I did VO2max Intervals - Short Shuttles - 2 x 10 x 60s. Load (106 to 130% of Critical Power)/ 60s. active Rest (70 to 80% of Critical Power) It was a very hard session and a great way to push myself to the limit! I love it 🚀! #pushathletiktraining #transalpinerun #trainhardfighteasy #nothingwillstopme #marathontraining #marathoncoach #energysystemdevelopment #nideggen #firstbeat #vo2maxtraining #pushyourlimits #noexcuses (hier: Nideggen Eifel) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-X21zeBgfT/?igshid=1vvcx8i5vuxx1

After convincing my foot to go out for a run with a fixing bandage it went quite good! Your head beats your body!💪🏻 #pushathletiktraining #noexcuses #nothingwillstopme #transalpinerun #knowyourbody #marathoncoach #marathontraining #beatyourbody #trailrunning #trainhardfighteasy #warriorordressman https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Slyo1hYFx/?igshid=82nwh2at190w

Sometimes shit happens ,like I had to notice today during a nice trailrun! But there is no reason to complain with it, so I try to reduce the grade of swelling which will occur, to get back on track or my racebike (1st time this year 😜) as soon as possible. To reconcile the time to my next running session and go on with improving my energysystem it will be a good alternative. No excuses 💪🏻! #pushathletiktraining #transalpinerun #marathontraining #trailrunning #twistedankle #stayfocussed #dontcomplainworkharder #noexcuses (hier: PUSH Athletiktraining) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-PxktWBpEI/?igshid=eucahztbqp7p

Last Sunday I finished another test, the „Drielandenpunt Trail 2020“ in Vaals/Netherlands. 28 km up & down with changing surfaces and a lot of trees to jump over after the stormy weeks. A well organised and challenging trail I can recommend! Thx to the orga team! 👏🏻 #pushathletiktraining #drielandenpunttrail #trailrunning #transalpinerun #ultratrailrunningtraining #laufcoachdueren #laufguiderureifel #marathoncoach #ausdauertraining (hier: Drielandenpunt) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9hWFByBLeo/?igshid=1dk48b86m2p13

Run 2 after my involuntarily 4 week trainkng break. I was positively surprised how good it worked, allthough I lost around 5 Watts of power and my quads and calfes tried to pipe up after 12 km. But they are in my body to work hard and not to cry 👊🏻! Train hard, win easy! 💪🏻🔥 #pushathletiktraining #transalpinerun #marathoncoach #laufcoach #ausdauertraining #energiesystemtraining #laufenindürenundjülich #trainingpeaks #strydrunning #skinfit #ultratrailrunning #rureifel #nideggen https://www.instagram.com/p/B9My1lKKo6T/?igshid=69ycl13du5qx
