Is This Interval System BETTER than what 99% of Runners are using?

[@CoachParry]

We've added a few more examples of our JIT Intervals for you to check out here: coachparry.com/jit-intervals/

[@Edward2M2026]

Are these JIT intervals included in your 5k training product?

[@jenniferswicegood4455]

Thanks for the additional examples that you have now attached. With your written preface comments the JIT interval System described in the video makes much more sense. It was hard to see the fine details of the example in your initial video. I now realize how individual this is to each runners unique training plan. It’s certainly not a one size fits all issue, so this is very helpful. Thanks

[@CoachParry]

@edwardfowlkesjr.7355 that they are.

[@basilisking1]

You have managed to provide no specifics in 13m... thank you for all your other videos

[@CoachParry]

Hi @basilisking1, thanks for your feedback. To help us improve, could you tell us what specifics you would have liked us to include? It’s important to bear in mind that each individual athlete that uses out JIT intervals has a different threshold pace and the types of intervals (speed, speed endurance, hills etc) differ according to 1. What the athlete is training for ie 5k vs marathon and 2. Where in the training cycle that session takes place ie week 1 vs week 10.

It seems like the JIT system means that you need to be well rested and do a good warm up before your interval session, and also need to pace yourself well in the session, aka not going out too fast and blowing up on the last rep. It seems kind of like common sense training principles that has been applied probably for 100 years already. I also fail to see the revolutionary workout anywhere in the video.

Really good information here. Very complicated choices to be made with a ‘no pain no gain’ mentality. Realizing, now, that pushing to your max all the time breaks down my body far more than builds. Thanks for keeping these ideas out there for us slow learners so we can, once again, do something akin to our younger days

Ever more great content on this channel ❤️. Currently recovering from a bout of long Covid which destroyed my aerobic base. Would be great to see you do a review of Noah Lyle’s 200M Olympics sprint where he collapsed at the end with some recommendations about ‘listening to our body’ when to train/compete and when not to.

[@davidbidwell250]

Makes sense. I think folks too often try to push through fatigue, soreness, or tiredness and do the intervals anyway. Just in time, or at your peak of freshness each week is a sound idea IMHO.

[@karlbratby4349]

Thanks, gents, not quite telling us much but interesting all the same.

[@glyndonwakeman7420]

Misleading title. You do not describe a particular session at any point (or is that the screenshot that you don't discuss- you discuss the warmup and strides instead). Discussing the framework in which you do intervals is not the session. What you describe here is no different than any well constructed plan that educates/ empowers an athlete to make decisions.

[@CoachParry]

With all due respect @glyndonwakeman7420, the title of the video asks a question. You are more than welcome to answer that question by disagreeing but saying the title is misleading is a bit harsh. In our opinion our JIT intervals are extremely powerful and we have the data to make that call on (we’ve had over 4 million workouts logged on our training app). We also included a few more specific sessions in the description and pinned comment on this video. The specifics of each session will differ from athlete to athlete because each athlete will have their own threshold pace. What they are training for and where they are in their training cycle also impacts each individual session.

[@sunnlands]

@@CoachParryThe title of the video is misleading, it clearly refers to a specific session, while what you are describing is a system - we get that the system and structure is more important than any single session, but we clicked on the video to get THAT special session! Thanks for adding a few examples to the description, it would be great if you could make a video discussion those.

[@kidcharlemagne9139]

Come on guys, misleading clickbaity title. People hate that.

[@gertvanrooy428]

I am 56 and have been running intervals since I was 10. I know how they work and how to handle them. Maybe I am in that 1% doing it right? Unsure. I train 6x a week, 3 of those easy runs, one long-ish tempo rum and 2x intervals. The intervals ALWAYS when I feel good and fit. My last 5k race I finished at 20:20. I run 10k below 44'. What I want to know is where do I go from here, since you seem to be preaching to a choir of amateurs?

[@meberts]

I like to do this sort of interval workout on a treadmill because I can measure it. Is that wrong? Should I find a track somewhere?

[@defining.vitality]

Really?

[@Mr80Miles]

400s off 60s.

[@Kingston781]

Coach please answer me what’s different between high Altitude and sea level I mean paces someone told me 5 to sec 10 sec per km difference is that true

[@LeeCook01]

There’s less oxygen at altitude so yeah

[@victorthacker1833]

Interval is the amount of rest between fast running . Not the fast repeats themselves. If your going to define racing terms. Understand the terminalogy yourself

[@teenakowbel4655]

Lace up your shoes and heart rate goes up, YUP! LOL
