That is a HIIT protocol - but you don’t have to start at ‘super high intensisyy’ just ‘high enough intensity’

5km is a technical as well as physical challenge..

> Press ups, sit ups, squats for 45 secs on- 15 sec rest and repeat.

That's HIIT training right?

I used to do this 20min workout regularly and it was fun: https://youtu.be/dS4uUM5UfOA?si=9iXmN3Vk-XDMIot7

But I would probably die in the first few minutes now, lol

When I feel better, I will definitely do some HIIT again :) I really like to be competitive with myself so integrating a clock into the workout works well for me.

I also tried to join the sub17 club in the past (5km in less than 17 minutes) but I always hit 19min +-5s
