Wind? Never heard of it. NJ high school foot ball team we use Glide sprint. Which is Sprint with your body tucked low.

Dont' even know if they have anything to do with each other.

Wind sprints came from track training. The idea is to run for short distances as fast as you can to increase speed. Intersperced with the fast intervals is slow jogging or walking to keep the blood moving at an aerobic rate.

Interval type training like that can be done in a variety of ways not just on a track running. It can be done on a bike on the road or a stationary bike. On any piece of aerobic equipment really. Just go as hard and fast as you can for a short period of time and do it in sets.

I suppose if its in rounds, and you're pushing yourself hard for those rounds, then yes that would be an example of interval training

Hey guys

Don't forget the specific type of interval training using a more random set of interval timings using the RPE "Rate of perceived exertion" - invented by a Swedish chappie & thus named after him.

Fartlek Training

I kid you not!

It has been a while since I have heard the term fartlek training, but it is for real. And it has nothing to do with farts.

The perceived rate of exertion is important in training. I think it can really help cut down on overtraining. I know there are a lot if times when I am on the treadmill or the elliptical trainer and don't feel like I am at my max, but my heart rate says otherwise.
