Sprinting

Today and yesterday, I've been centering my lunch-time exercise around sprinting. I'll run all out for a minute then hobble my way back. Then run all out for a minute. Then walk back. Rinse, repeat.

The thought behind this switch is to try to mimic the intensity of a sparring match. I figure if I can keep running full pace for a minute, I can spar full speed for a minute and not die and I mean full tilt. Right now, my sparring is full of pauses and breaks which isn't bad, but when I spar those that require my best, I die way too fast.

I'd like to see myself be able to run full tilt for three minutes, but that'll take me a while to achieve.

Observation tells me that sprinting is going to be an effective addition to my exercise regime. Judging by the muscle soreness that I haven't experienced in quite a while, I am obviously targeting my muscles both strongly enough and in a different enough method that they're being pushed. I think this hard sprinting will be a good compliment to Tae Kwon Do training.

I'm going to be mirroring my Wordpress account over here for a while so I can see which platform I like better. Thoughts?
