Sprint interval training - looking for advice.

[Jed Shields]

Hi guys,

I need to start getting back in shape while I'm working away during the week. There's a park nearby so I was thinking of trying some sprint intervals:

Set 1:

30 second sprint
120 second rest
30 second sprint
120 second rest
30 second sprint
120 second rest
30 second sprint
240 second rest

Repeat for Set 2 and 3.

Does this sound okay? I found it on a webpage somewhere and it seems pretty good.

EDIT: here, #1 All Purpose: http://www.poliquingroup.com/ArticlesMultimedia/Articles/Article/1007/Three_Superb_Sprint_Interval_Workouts_To_Achieve_Y.aspx

Cheers,

Jed

I'll put it to the test tonight... 30 seconds is probably to long to be fair, I'll try flat out for 10 as a starter
