run course.
For the most part, the less you «re demanding of your type II
muscle fibers during your
running, the more they'll be in top shape for your lifting.
More on this in the sample routine below, but long story short, you need to understand what TYPES of
running hinder your lifting the most (hint: mostly sprints and hill climbs - those
runs that heavily engage your type II
muscle fibers), and plan accordingly.
For example, one study found a little less than 70 % leg
muscle fiber activation while
