Sprint training WILL increase your Fitness Level.
Everyone can agree that lifting weights burns more calories quicker than doing aerobic exercise. The same is true for sprinting. Sprint training will burn more calories quicker than distance training. Sprinting is basically strength training through running. Sprint training is designed to challenge your body to recruit more muscles fibers that will enable you to move your body faster. The recruitment of these extra fibers requires more energy expenditure and improves muscular development.
I challenge every fitness professional too add sprint training into their routine. I am not saying get rid of aerobic exercise, it is needed. All I am suggesting is alternate training. You wouldn’t work arms 3 days in a row. So why do aerobics every day. Switch it up, challenge the body and raise your fitness level and physique to new heights. I always like to ask muscular fitness people would you rather look like a distance runner or sprinter... You make the call.
