Researchers Guro Solli and Øyvind Sandbakk Look at a Graphic that Compares Marit Bjørgen's Training

Caption

Researchers Guro Solli and Øyvind Sandbakk look at a graphic that compares Marit Bjørgen's training programme during her block training sessions (top) and during traditional high-intensity training sessions. The red dots are her high-intensity training sessions. Note how close the dots are on the upper graph, showing how Bjørgen did high intensity sessions nearly every day, and sometimes twice a day.
