Has anybody heard about or used Anti-Glycolytic Training?
A while back I was complaining that as an older person it is all to easy to injure oneself when training if one goes to extremes - Feeling the Burn, or Shredding one's body. Once injured the benefits of training go POOF! as it often takes weeks to recover and get back to training.
One fellow recommended Anti-Glycolytic training mentioned at this website:

The idea seems to be to train to the point where you can keep on keeping-on without getting burned, shredded or otherwise damaging your cells. One trains the body to provide an ongoing source of energy that doesn't run out after a short period such as with HIIT or lifting weights to the point of failure.
Obviously, the the guy promoting this has something to sell. But, if it works, it sounds better than the riskier extremes.
