DAY 1
WALK + HER MOBILITY
Duration: 30 minutes
Intensity: Level 2-3
During this session, incorporate 6 bursts of high-intensity intervals, each lasting 30 seconds, ramping up to level 7 intensity during your east run. These bursts are aimed at flushing toxins from the muscles and maintaining your fitness levels.
DAY 2
CONTRAST SESSION (PAUSE)
HER Band workout first!
Before starting the short strides, make sure to engage in the HER Band workout to activate and strengthen your core, legs, glutes and upper body muscles. This will help keep your stabilizer muscles activated for race week, which are essential for maintaining balance and improving athletic performance.
