    Today on the Run Culture Podcast I was very lucky to chat to Paul Laursen.

    Paul is a renowned sports scientist and expert in high-intensity interval training (HIIT). His extensive research and practical experience (as a runner, triathlete and coach) have made him a pivotal figure in the understanding of how HIIT can be effectively applied to endurance sports.

    Paul is the co-author of the; ' The Science and Application of High Intensity Interval Training: Solutions to the Programming Puzzle.' with Martin Bucheit. Here he explored the physiological mechanisms and benefits of HIIT.

    In todays episode, Paul defines what HIIT is and we discuss the 'decision tree' you should use to more effectively prescribe it.
