Topic description

The instructor sets a time limit in which a given circuit (e.g. athletics track) must be completed. When the time is up, this is signalled by the leader. The instructor positions themselves at the start/finish point accordingly. Participants (or groups) who have not yet completed the lap at this point must increase their pace for the next lap. Participants who have already crossed the start/finish line at this point must slow down their pace for the next lap. To make the exercise interesting for all participants, different times/targets are defined for different strength groups.
