As a successful International Cyclist, Trevor averaged over 800 km/week for three years. As a 32min 10k and 2.37 marathon runner peaked at 150 km/week.
He will draw on this knowledge of training, at the edge, to structure your run session for distances from 800m to the marathon and beyond with a Personalised Training Plan - Please see Section 2
Trevor has over 25,000 hours of experience. Over many decades, he has analysed, filtered and selected the most effective exercise routines for Specific and General improvements
Designed and Developed by Trevor de Silva, over several decades, it is a very powerful tool for sportspeople.
He has used over 25,000 hours of Strength & Conditioning experience, including successful international sportspeople, to refine and select the most effective routines for many sports.
Key Objectives
Suitable for
Muscle Dynamics and Balance: During the first few sessions, Trevor will assess and identify any weaknesses in muscle balance. These will be addressed first
Injury Resolution: Under his guidance, participants will initially focus on any existing issues
Tailored for the Individual: Each participant has a Personal Workout Card (PWC) precisely tailored to the individual and the sport. Maximum 10 participants per class
Two on-site computers:
60 minute session: Small group, (max 10). Wednesdays at 7.00pm @ £10-00
BODYwise was designed and developed by Trevor de Silva, in the 1980s, as a complete fitness session of 90 mins.
LOOKING FOR A REASON TO START WALKING?
Here are Anne's top 10 . . . . .
1 walking is a good way of boosting energy: studies show that walking at a pace of around 60% perceived effort (around 3 mph or 20 min per mile) is the rate at which you start feel alert without sapping energy reserves and leaving you tired afterwards
2 walking helps quell food cravings: a brisk 15 minute walk mid-afternoon cuts the amount of sweet stuff people consume - University of Exeter research
3 walkers have stronger bones - for life: the impact of your foot on a hard surface strengthens your bones. Women who walk at least one mile or 20 min a day have a higher bone density after menopause. Research also indicates that walkers lose less bone day-to-day
4 walking is a natural mood booster: studies of people with mild depression found that walking for 30 minutes, 3 times a week for 16 weeks produced a mood-boosting effect similar to taking anti-depressants. For those who continued for 6 months or more, had a far lower risk of relapse
5 walkers are less likely to stop taking exercise: research indicates that 80% of walkers stick to their programme, compared with just 30% of runners
6 women who walk after menopause lower their risk of breast cancer: walking for at least an hour a day lowers the risk by 14%
7 walking 'feeds' the brain: Italian research indicates that people aged 65+ who walk the most reduce their risk of developing dementia by 27%
8 walkers live longer: brisk walking for 75+ minutes a week increases life expectancy by 1.8 years (USA National Cancer Institute). Additional activity) above minimal levels, appears to increase longevity even further
9 walking helps reduce the symptoms of menopause: walking could reduce the severity of some menopause symptoms - particularly those related to stress and anxiety. Around 40 minutes of walking, 5 times a week, is the point at which the benefit kicks in
10 walking helps fight major diseases: US research indicates that walking is as effective as running for fighting diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. As long as you burn the same number of calories whether walking or running which means walking a little longer or a bit faster!

Prerequisites
Methodology
ExecFit Training already advises several UK-based runners who are moving towards a national level. We currently train and coach two overseas runners, one of whom qualified for the, now postponed, Olympics 2020.
These runners do not, therefore, need to live locally. By the use of GPS systems, email and systematic monitoring performance and training objectives can be discussed and adjusted appropriately.
How to nominate
Nominee Profile
Current 5 km run form with some flexibility
Scroll down for Mile Project
Running a fast mile might seem irrelevant to an endurance runner who might be training for a 5k, 10k or Marathon. A mile time can be correlated to times for longer distances. This means it will be helpful in highlighting any issues/weaknesses in their training programme
For example: To run a 3h marathon, the mile time needed would be around 5.35. There will be many individual variations due to different muscle fibre compositions
For example a runner with significant Type 1 (see below) slow twitch fibres and 'adapted' Type 2A fibres, is likely to run a 3h marathon with a mile time of around 5.40 or slower. However, if a runner with a mile time of 5.35 fails to achieve a 3h marathon, it would indicate that their training for medium and long term endurance was lacking in intensity and/or duration

PB or Your Full Potential
a Personalised Training Plan might be your best option. Every run is structured precisely to your needs and aspirations . see Section [ 2 ]
Wimbledon Windmilers and Hercules Wimbledon in
London SW19 UK
Members can join one of Trevor de Silva's Weekly Group Training sessions in conjunction with all of above options . see Section [ 12 ]
<> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <>
. Before you start
any training programme, it is advisable to see your GP and your Dentist for a check up
Choosing your Race Distance
Training schedules for different distances can be very different.
1 mile and under
Low Total Weekly Distance (TWD) and Very High Intensity Training
5 km and 10k
Medium TWD and Fairly High Intensity
Half Marathon
Medium to High TWD and Moderate to High Intensity, depending on aspirations
Marathon
High TWD and Moderate to High Intensity, depending on aspirations
Shoes
Visit a shoe shop with computer gait Analysis and get advice on your choice of shoes.
We use Up and Running sports shops see Section (9)
Running Mate or Join a Club
To increase and maintain motivation find a running mate or join a running club. Initially, running alone can sometimes be disheartening.
See section (12) for local running clubs.
<> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <>
Increasing Weekly Distance
Every third week increase your total weekly distance depending on the number of sessions you do a week. for example:
Weekly Structure and Training Frequency
We recommend the following spacing between runs and is applicable for up to 50m/80km a week and keeping an average of up to 10m/16k per run
Above 50m/80km a week, start to double up and still keep an average of c.10m/16k per run or increase judiciously. Speak to your coach or contact ExecFit Training
Utilise the Weekend

Marathon Time Potential
If you have not run a marathon before, we can correlate your Potential Marathon Time using your 10k or half marathon time. Please contact ExecFit Training by email.
Long Run
Pace and Terrain
Long Run
Distance and Duration
Is dependent on the following parameters and
Whichever is reached first
Marathon
Half Marathon
Last weekend before race
Mixed Terrain
Over the course of the week, try to run on a mixture of tarmac - grass - footpath - running track etc
Hill Training
Specific Hill reps are not essential for a race that is generally on flat terrain. See long Run Pace and Terrain
Speed Work
for a Marathon
Total Distance per Week
For a marathon: Unless you are frequently running 35-40 miles /55-65 km a week, it is unlikely that your body is ready for the 26.2 mile / 42.2 km journey.
Run this weekly distance at least once for your first marathon
Strength & Conditioning
Should be an essential part of your programme to enhance performance and reduce the risk of injury. Leave at least 5 hours between a S&C session and a hard run (Long Run, Hill Run or Speed Work), to reduce risk of injury
Space your runs
To avoid the Interference Effect
Pre Training Warm Up
Post Training
Nutrition
NOTE - to be update soon - or contact ExecFit Training by email.
The general proportion should be about 60% Carbohydrates (50 complex, 10 simple), 25% fat, 15% protein
Taper - WiP(reducing the weekly distance) is not required if you are running less than 35 miles / 55 km a week and it can even be counter productive
GPS: if you use a devise, we can specify an accurate pace, if you send us any recent race times: 5k, 10k, HM etc
Easy Pace: Is 70 - 75% effort or conversational pace.
85% effort
90% effort
95% effort
98% effort
Strides: different coaches have their own spec, all fairly similar. This is ours:
