8 Things to Know About Aerobic Capacity (And How to Improve It) #4
Low-intensity steady state (LISS) training, also known as long slow distance (LSD) training, is the ability to maintain a steady work-rate over an extended period of time. LISS relies on aerobic energy pathways for energy and can supply fuel muscle activity for extended durations like endurance races.
