Spartan Running Training Plan | Day 24: Pulling
Welcome to Day 24 of the Spartan Running Training Plan.
You’re almost through the final week of training, Spartan. Stay strong.
During today’s strength training and repeats workout, you are dropping your set and repetitions. Your strength training should be done at an active rest volume which should feel strenuous, but not overwhelming. Your weights will remain the same from the previous week.
For your 400m repeats, we will continue to work with negative splits towards a faster-than-projected pace time. We will not be reaching a speed that you haven’t previously hit in training. Keep your head up and push forward. You’re halfway through this final week.
