I thought I would help to make deloading easier to follow with a quick glance chart.
Deloading | |
Miles per week | Deload week |
50 | 37 |
45 | 33 |
40 | 30 |
35 | 26 |
30 | 22 |
25 | 18 |
20 | 15 |
15 | 11 |
For example: If I have been training 2 weeks at 40 miles per week with 6 miles of quality, I would "deload" my third week to 30 miles with 3-4 miles of quality and I would probably add a rest day. Deloading is a great way to allow the body recover & remodel itself. This format of 2 weeks up and 1 week down will allow an athlete to become stronger for what is next.
