Good Morning
I am reading about how to structure workouts and many recommend that I descend my times in a series of intervals. I know what it means but wonder what is the physiological basis for doing it.

two ways to do it
examples 1
8 x 50, descend 1 to 4, 5 to 8 where repeats 1 and 5 are slow and 4 and 8 are basically 90%+ effort
example 2
15 x 50, hold same pace for all 15, but descend interval. adjust interval so that the last 5 are 1 or 2 seconds rest.
1 -5 on 45
5 - 10 on 40
10 to 15 on 35
these are good for 100s as well.
