Cardio program is a minimum of 45 min to 1.5 hours. Add 15 minutes per workout until the 1.5 hours is reached. Cardio is AEROBIC. Aerobic Sprint Cycles will be added as program progresses.
Please note that the following is a basic foundation program that should be done for a minimum of 3-4 weeks depending on the conditioning level of the athlete. I will be posting more sport specific information on this page as a training log (core, balance, sport specific, etc) but this program can be used for up to 6 to 8 weeks then will progress into the explosive power program. More later. RON
