Interval training is quite effective to develop Anaerobic Capacity. Working over a distance of maybe 60/80m with a active rest (walking) of 20seconds is a good place to start. To make it harder, increase the distance of the sprints and decrease the rest period. Pyramid training will also help. *Sprint 20m have a 10 second break *Sprint 40m have a 15 second break *Sprint 60m have a 15 second break *Sprint 80m have a 20 second break *Sprint 60m *Sprint 40m *Sprint 20m
