  2. Long slow distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_slow_distance

    Long slow distance (LSD) is a form of aerobic endurance training used in sports including running, [1] rowing, [2] skiing [3] and cycling. [4] [5] It is also known as aerobic endurance training, base training and Zone 2 training. [6]

  3. Fartlek - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fartlek

    Fartlek is a middle and long-distance runner's training approach developed in the late 1930s by Swedish Olympian Gösta Holmér. [1] It has been described as a relatively unscientific blending of continuous training (e.g., long slow distance training), with its steady pace of moderate-high intensity aerobic intensity, [2] and interval training, with its “spacing of more intense exercise and ...

  4. Sprint (running) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprint_(running)

    While genetics play a large role in one's ability to sprint, [90] [91] [92] athletes must be dedicated to their training to ensure that they can optimize their performances. Sprint training includes various running workouts, targeting acceleration, speed development, speed endurance, special endurance, and tempo endurance.

  5. Aerobic exercise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobic_exercise

    High volumes of training with insufficient calorie intake puts athletes—particularly female ones—at risk for RED-S [51] Aerobic exercise may not be as efficient as other exercise methods. For example, High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has been shown to provide similar benefits in a fraction of the time spent exercising per week.

  6. Aircraft upset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_upset

    An airplane upset is defined as an airplane in flight unintentionally exceeding the parameters normally experienced in line operations or training. In other words, the airplane is not behaving normally or as intended; accordingly it will be approaching unsafe parameters. Exact definition varies between documents and training programs.

  7. Ultralight aviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultralight_aviation

    In Europe, the sporting (FAI) definition limits the maximum stalling speed to 65 km/h (40 mph) and the maximum take-off weight to 450 kg (992 lb), or 472.5 kg (1,042 lb) if a ballistic parachute is installed. The definition means that the aircraft has a slow landing speed and short landing roll in the event of an engine failure. [1]

  8. Maneuvering speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maneuvering_speed

    In aviation, the maneuvering speed of an aircraft is an airspeed limitation at which the full deflection of the controls can be made at without risking structural damage. [1] The maneuvering speed of an aircraft is shown on a cockpit placard and in the aircraft's flight manual but is not commonly shown on the aircraft's airspeed indicator.

  9. V speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_speeds

    Speed at which exceeding the limit load factor may cause permanent deformation of the aircraft structure. [7] [8] [9] [24] V O: Maximum operating maneuvering speed. [25] V R: Rotation speed. The speed at which the pilot begins to apply control inputs to cause the aircraft nose to pitch up, after which it will leave the ground. [7] [26] [Note 1 ...
