Combining Norwegian Singles with heat training
Hi everyone. I am planning to train over the summer using the NSM approach, but i also want to implement a few other aspects into my training. Some heat training and also some race prep work towards a 10K.
Can anyone speak to the viability of adopting a model with heat training i have named "Hot Norwegian Singles" where i would do 3 workouts per week, and swapping 2-3 of the easy days with heat training (45 minute elliptical or uphill walking). I do ofcourse understand the heat will put more stress on my body, but i dont see any better way of trying to combine the two models. The heat-training will likely be only the last 4 weeks leading into the race, trying to maximize the haemoblogbin and blood-volume effect, while not fatigueing the body for an unnecissarily long period. From my understanding/experience 4 weeks should be sufficient for most of the heat effect to take place.
