Why Racing Drivers Need Cardiovascular training in Pre‑Season
Racing isn’t just about skill — it’s a full‑body endurance sport, whether it’s Karting or full time Professional competition
Drivers often sit at 150–180 bpm for long periods, all while dealing with heat, G‑forces, and constant decision making.
A strong cardio base keeps you sharp, consistent, and mentally locked in from lights out to the final lap.
How to Build It:
• Steady endurance work:
Running, cycling, rowing
45–60 min at 60–75% max HR
• HIIT sessions:
Bike sprints, rowing intervals
20–30 min with efforts at 85–95% max HR
Build the engine now so you can perform when it counts!
