Day 46: Sprint intervals, confidence level | The HRT Reset 60-Day Challenge

Today's workout

Short, true-sprint intervals. Morning only. Once per week max.

Warm up (5-7 min)

•5 minutes easy walk or jog

•Dynamic leg swings x 10 per side

Warm-Up Sets

Before your working weight, do two sets with lighter loads at the same movement pattern. Set one: empty bar or light dumbbells for 8 reps. Set two: roughly half your working weight for 5 reps. These sets are not fatiguing - they're rehearsals.

→Move exactly like you will for working sets
→Lighter weight, same form
→Rest 60-90 seconds between warm-up sets

Showing gym version. Switch to home above if needed.

Today's nutrition focus

Don't under-fuel on HIIT day

Sprint day is not a diet day. Eat enough carbs to fuel the session and enough protein afterwards. Under-eating after HIIT is a common mistake that stalls progress. Treat it like a hard workout, not a weight loss session.

Mindset brief

You sprint differently now

Your sprints on Day 46 should look and feel different than Day 25. More coordinated. More relaxed at top speed. This is athletic capability you haven't expressed in years. The fact that it's coming back means you're training like an athlete.
