While filming our latest hard core urban boot camp workout, Michael Klim Gold & World record holder literally ran behind to continue interval based training

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

While I was filming our latest hard core urban boot camp workout, Michael Klim and four others literally ran behind the camera to another location along the beach to continue their interval based sprint work training.

Without paying much attention, I noticed a small group doing maximal sprint efforts to the end of the pier and back while we kept re shooting our L sit iron beam chin ups.

For those not familiar with Michael, he is a multi Olympic and World Championship Gold medal winner and world 100 meters freestyle and butterfly record holder.

It’s awesome to see Michael embracing the interval based training technique of high intensity cardio based 100 – 150m sprint efforts followed by a dumbbell shoulder work and dips.

Great for keeping the heart elevated at the upper levels for short periods of time with a short burst of resistance training from in.

Unfortunately Michael was sprinting back to the starting point of the workout, an awesome very down to earth guy who still graciously managed a quick chat during this extreme work out session

Funny Fitness quote regarding running groups “do we provide sick bags?”

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

While talking a Fitmate this morning regarding our running group, she responded with the question “do you provide the sick bags?” Only joking! from Kat at North Fitzroy.

Fitstylers response: Sorry it’s BYO but you can use the doggy poop bags available at the Park, only joking:))

Seriously running can be incredibly intense, especially if you incorporate interval based training
