Effective at maintaining aerobic conditioning. I wanted to get away from having to run 40 minutes 3 times a week. Doing sprints for 2-4 minutes 3 times a week is essentially the same.
Also has the added benefit over my old 40 minute jog routine of increasing my quickness. I play hockey so it was noticeable how much quicker my first 3 strides have become the past 2 years.
Pretty good read regarding all this:

- paulcole 9y agoYeah it's not surprising that slow speed jogging wouldn't improve quickness. Fast twitch vs. slow twitch and all.
