Instead of building volume then intensity, it often starts with higher intensity/lower volume and gradually shifts to higher volume/lower intensity.

- Athletes with limited training time.
- Early-season competitive goals.
- Triathletes or multi-sport athletes who need early speed.
- To prevent burnout from high volume early in the season.
