Ragged run - alternating light running with jerks. It helps to improve the functioning of the heart, respiratory system, and increase endurance. Today's athletes often use the sprinting technique in order to achieve the peak of their running capabilities.
The jogging technique is often used during training for professional and amateur runners. Not everyone understands what it is. Also, many do not know when a ragged run can be applied in practice.
What does a ragged run affect?
A sprinting run is necessary to improve physical condition, cardiac activity, and increase the level of endurance. Only a trained runner can start training using a ragged (interval) run so as not to harm his body.
So, a jerk run is an alternation of easy running and jerking. With a similar approach to the training process, the amplitude of the loads during running increases sharply, in order to decrease later. The jerk can be both with the maximum speed and with a lower one. In any case, during the jerk, there is a rapid pulse, increased muscle work.
Different speed of jerks
If the maximum possible speed is practiced during the interval running during the snatch, then you should not run more than 100 meters. Moreover, the transition to an easy pace should last at least two minutes to restore breathing and heartbeat. The best option would be to accelerate, as if covering a distance of a kilometer, or to run at a maximum of 30 meters. In this case, there may be more such jerks, and the load on the vessels, heart and respiratory system will be uniform, but long in time. This applies to amateur runners. The workload of professionals is much more serious.
Ragged running in team sports
Ragged running develops not only the cardiovascular system, general endurance, but also "breath". By practicing interval running, you can reach your peak of shape much faster, show excellent results, and immediately recover from stress.
This type of running is shown to football players, basketball players, hockey players and other team sports athletes, where it is necessary to make jerks and quickly recover from them. At one time, coach V. V. Lobanovskiy forced the players of his Dynamo Kiev team and the USSR national team to be able to jerk 60-100 meters, and then recover in one minute. This made it possible to keep the opponent in suspense throughout the match. This tactic was adopted by the modern mentors of the leading clubs in Europe.
Before you start practicing jogging, you need to get in good physical shape. During interval running training, it is important to let the body "breathe", which is achieved by a good warm-up and jogging at least 1 kilometer. This will help prevent injury and overload.
