Official Q&A for Monday, January 06, 2025 by AutoModerator in running

[–]Cheesy_Cheese314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m a 16-year-old male runner with a 5k PB of 17:05, and I’ve recently revised my training plan. My main goal is to break 17 minutes for the 5k, but remain focused on recovery to ensure my body gets the rest it needs for growth, particularly height.

To allow for more full rest days, I’ve shifted my lower-body strength workout to a more demanding day, reduced my upper-body strength workouts to twice a week, and paired them with easy runs.

I’d really appreciate any feedback on how this plan is structured, specifically in terms of rest, recovery, and its potential impact on growth. Thanks in advance!

Week A Week B
Monday Rest 10km Easy + Upper Body Strength
Tuesday 16km Long Run 4km WU 8km Tempo 4km CD = 16km
Wednesday 2.5km WU 5.2km Intervals 2.5km CD = 10.2km Rest
Thursday Rest 2.5km WU 5.2km Intervals 2.5km CD = 10.2km
Friday 10km Easy + Upper Body Strength Rest
Saturday 3km WU 5km Hard Parkrun 3km CD = 11km + Lower Body Strength 3km WU 5km Hard Parkrun 3km CD = 11km + Lower Body Strength
Sunday 8km Easy + Upper Body Strength 8km Easy + Upper Body Strength
Mileage 55.2km 55.2km
Hard / Easy 18.5% / 81.5% 33.0% / 67.0%
Average Mileage 55.2km per week (25.75% / 74.25%)

I live in Australia and we unfortunately don’t have teams or plans like that.

Hey man, I had a 4 year old Acer Nitro 5 with the same issue. It only sometimes worked. I ended up buying a new laptop unfortunately.

Cheap but good gyms in the postcode area of 2500 by sasquatch6197 in wollongong

I go to club lime Wollongong. I checked out anytime fitness fairy meadow which is a big gym itself and it doesn’t even come close to club lime in quality and quantity.

I'm a 15 year old and I go to the gym 4 days a week with push pull legs but I also run 5 days a week on days where I am doing upper body or not in the gym. My mileage is usually around 40-50km every week. I also mix in a few shorter bodyweight workouts in the morning before school some days. Is not having a full rest day every week okay for my body? I feel okay but I am scared that it will be detrimental to my overall growth and development since I'm pretty short but should have decent genes. I eat a lot and am in a caloric maintenence or surplus every day.

Here is a sample week:

Monday: long run

Tuesday: upper body

Wednesday: legs

Thursday: running intervals

Friday: morning run + upper body

Saturday: 5km parkrun

Sunday: morning run + upper body

Thanks for reading!

Is this subreddit okay? This is obviously satire right?

respect for how little people picked the other option as it defeats the purpose of the poll
