Combining sprint training with FT
#4

But mainly I'd like to use it as an additional hypertrophy tool for the lower body (along with standard resistance training).

How does this sprinting regime compare if you had to guess, to simply using the FT program as laid out in terms of glute and ham growth. How about when it comes to work capacity in a plan like this?...

It seems you're pretty certain that sprinting is a better(???) means of increasing size in those muscle groups than resistance training them?

How much have you been able to improve your insulin sensitivity using the sprinting compare to a high frequency regime like FT?...

Do you have a glycemic control issue?...

Quote:I've read some good articles by John Meadows about how high-intensity training is superior for body composition than steady-state cardio and sprinting is my preferred method of incorporating this.

So your goal now is to use this as a form of cardio to try to lose body fat (vs. a LISS approach)?...

Overall I'm seeing a goal(s) to gain muscle mass (specific to glutes and hams) and lose body fat simultaneously. Is this correct?...
