Having binged on the few seasons of Team Ingebrigtsen on Youtube, I am going to change my training principles a little.
1. Increase mileage. I am not doing much tbh, at ~40km per week during training weeks and ~30km per week during deload weeks. Ideally I will want to bump this up towards 50km/40km respectively but I will make this change slowly to let the body adapt.
2. No more anaerobic intervals. Firstly they feel pretty tough on the body and I might just be too old for this crap. I am going to go with sub threshold work 1-2x a week, more likely erring on the side of less.
For some reason I have decided 2022 will be the year of the run, and I have chosen the middle distances (800m, 1500m, 1 mile, 1.5mile, 3000m) as my area of interest. It is going to be mainly a diet of aerobic work, sprinkled with high aerobic tempo work, and basic speed.
Strength and BJJ will take a backseat but I want to maintain my levels in both. So will go down to 2x30min of Strength training weekly for the most part, and 2x1h sessions of BJJ weekly.
I will also take every 12th, and maybe 13th week, completely off.
Pencilling a course-correction review after 2x12-13 week blocks.
