First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two different ways to train for a 5-km race: polarized training (mostly easy runs with some hard efforts) and threshold training (focusing on a steady, challenging pace). About 20 recreational runners aged 20-45 will follow a 12-week program to see which method improves race time and body composition more. The goal is to help everyday runners choose the best training approach.
