But first, make sure you have been properly hydrating yourself otherwise you won't last. Second, hopefully you have been eating properly so that you are properly fuelled.
So today's session is no great technical feat, in fact it is pretty straight forward and you get a choice.
Pick one....
9.32 (15 km) run or 50 mile ride
The choice is yours but get one of them done over the next few days.
What are the benefits for SWAT and Spec Ops guys for training distances like this
well here a just a few...
- Strengthens the heart - larger stroke volume.
- Strengthens the leg muscles - endurance is developed.
- Mind Work - mental toughness and coping skills are developed.
- Develops fat burning capacity
- Increases number and size of mitochondria
- Increases capillary growth into muscle fibers.
- Increases myoglobin concentration in muscle fibers.
- Increases aerobic efficiency.
- Increase in Maximum VO2..
There's a lot of technical stuff in that list and really who gives a you know what about most of it but if you are hoping to become a SWAT or Spec Operator #3 in that list should mean a lot to you.
Having the ability to overcome your body is something team leaders look for and going on a long run is a good way to pour the you know what to potential candidates.
