How to Do Sprint Intervals: Step by Step
- Drive knees high, pump arms hard
- Land on balls of feet
- Lean slightly forward at the start
- Decelerate gradually — don't jam the brakes
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Not warming up properly — 5 min jog first
- Sprinting on tired legs — injury risk
- Going 90% instead of true max effort
Sprint Intervals Tips
- Sprint on grass or a track — easier on joints than concrete
- True sprints should leave you breathless
- Once per week is enough — very taxing on the body
