Looking to set yourself a new weight management or fitness goal. A 5k is fun, sociable and achievable!
This comprehensive 5k training programme will give you all of the information you need to get you running your first 5K race in just 5 weeks. We have organised it based on three ability levels â beginner, for someone whoâs never run before; intermediate, for someone who is moderately active; and advanced, for someone who considers themselves fairly active and is looking to improve his or her fitness and running time. You will learn the importance of a healthy, active life, as well as how fitness, nutrition and lifestyle work hand-in-hand to help you achieve your goals. Whether youâre new to running or already do cardio a few times a week, this program will take you from 0 to 5K in style successfully.
As with Herbalife24FIT, the â5 Weeks to 5Kâ program utilises the basics of periodisation training, which is one of the most established and timetested training methods in the sports world. By systematically increasing your training load and allowing for necessary rest to promote muscle adaptation, you will gradually build fitness in a sustainable way. Unlike most programs, we want you to avoid starting out too fast. Our goal is to get you race-ready without becoming mentally frustrated, physically tired or, even worse, injured.
