In this video, I'll go into more detail about the benefits of incorporating cross training into your running workouts to improve your overall performance. As a strong advocate of cycling, I'll explain how to effectively incorporate cycling, rowing, and cross country running into your training plan. I'll show you where to fit these sessions into your weekly schedule and at what intensity you should perform them.

Over the years I have experimented with different cross-training techniques at different intensities and even incorporated cycling and rowing as hard sessions on interval days to simulate double thresholds, similar to Jakob Ingebrigtsen's methods. I share my insights and experiences, as well as those of elite athletes who have successfully used cross-training to improve their running performance.

When talking about cross-training, it's important to keep your main goal in mind: becoming the best runner you can be. This means using cross-training to support and enhance your running training, rather than just adding extra volume or doing another sport.

In this video you will learn:
1. The benefits of cross training for runners.
2. How to effectively integrate cycling, rowing and cross-country skiing into your training.
3. Where you should incorporate cross-training sessions into your weekly schedule.
4. The intensity levels to aim for during cross-training sessions.
5. Insights from elite athletes on how cross-training improved their running performance.
