Hi ladies,
I'm sorry if this has been posted to bits somewhere, I just got tired of looking for it!
Wanting to take my running efforts to the next level, I want to start adding in some HIIT (high intensity interval training) sessions.
My question is, how much rest should I give myself after? I ask because I keep seeing numbers like, it takes your body 48 hours to recover, etc etc. Does this mean I should take 2 days off? Or do some other exercise in-between, like long moderate-intensity runs or weight training?
Ideally, I'd like to do HIIT 2 times a week and bust through this plateau I've seemed to hit, as well as improve my endurance and speed in running.
Any information on this would be truly appreciated, I've been sifting through what the internet has to offer, but I'm not sure I trust all of it.
Thanks so much!!!
