Hi Anthony, and welcome to the forums
are you able to do a 4k time-trial so that we are able to provide times close to your current fitness?

thx let me try doing it tonight, hope it stops raining.
btw, at the very beginning, i run because wanna improve physical fitness for playing single in badminton, as I keep participating in some competitions. But then I become more interested in challenging the PB, and try to seek for advice =)

as the program is focused mainly on Day 3 to Day 8
you can take a no running day, and train every 2nd day
so if you run Day 3 . then 4 Rest or swim . Day 5 session . rest or swim then do Day 8
the main aim is to get the sessions Day 3 . 5 . 8
then we can juggle until you become more consistent
less is better until you adapt

Hi Anthony, cycling is fine, however, you need to 'SPIN' properly without putting too much stress on your quadriceps. It has to be an aerobic session and must negate the over use of the muscles
make sure your saddle height etc is set for you and that you do not put any strain on your knees by cycling
please ask more questions for clarity
onwards
