PostPosted: 10/30/02 - 11:49    Post subject: post your typical weekly schedule
I know several of you weight train 2-3 times/week and get some cycling or spinning in in addition to your standard running week. I'm trying to incorporate strength training in again (I've taken a little time away from the weights.... Embarassed ) but I'm having a little trouble fitting this into my seemingly already packed schedule. I just wanted to see how some of you handle this.

Thanks!

The whole thing if you don't mind, I want to see how everyone squeezes weights around long runs, etc.

Currently on a self-impossed running break for stress fractures (most likely). so my current schedule is:

Mon AM Swim PM Karate
Tue AM Bike PM Weights
Wed AM Swim PM Karate
Thu AM Bike PM Weights
Fri AM Swim PM Weights (make up if missed during week)
SAT Bike outdoors if possible/Weights depending on weather
SUN Bike outdoors if possible/Weights depending on weather

Of course weekend schedules can change at any time to meet family schedules. How am I supposed to turn pro if they keep cutting into my training Wink

Wednesday is an optional day for a run, depend on how I feel, may move one of my evening lifts to that morning in lieu of a run

Run: Monday through Saturday
Bike and Swim: Tuesday and Thursday
Lift: Monday, Wednesday, Friday
But I'm fortunate to have a flexible schedule centered around physical fitness.

I am trying to rework my schedule as well, but right before I got benched, when I was training at my fullest, this was my optimal and most of the time what I followed:

Monday lunch: 5-6 mi run
PM: 1 hour power yoga

Tuesday PM: swim, lift (total body w/o)

Wednesday lunch: 5-6 mi run
PM: PM Yoga (about a 20 min tape)

Thursday PM: swim/lift (tb again)

Friday: 5-6 mi at lunch

Saturday: long swim, 1600M-2400M & lift
OR: brick workout: 20-25 mi bike followed by 6 mi run

Sunday: long run, 10 or more, depending on training
late afternoon: long swim & weights if I did the brick Saturday

Since I am selling my road bike, the bricks are a thing of the past, unless I decide to buy a cheap hybrid just for fun. Which I might, if I don't see enough improvement with the swimming and lifting. But I really don't like cycling.

Monday: Easy run; Strength Training

Tuesday: 800 meter repeats

Wednesday: Recovery Run; Strength Training

Thursday: Tempo or pace run (Speed day)

Friday: Rest Day for running; Strength Training

Saturday: Long run

Sunday: Rest Day

Strength training doesn't result in a scheduling problem for me. We have a complete gym at our police training center and I do my strength training on my lunch hour which is from 4 am to 5 am Very Happy
