repetition training

 
Food and Fitness: repetition training
 

A form of training, similar to interval training, used by runners, swimmers, cyclists, and other sports people. It differs from interval training in the length of the work interval and the amount of recovery between repetitions. For runners, it consists of running a given distance in a predetermined time with almost complete rest and recovery (usually walking) after each run. The run is usually at, or near, race pace.
