轉貼Eddie Hsiung教練的翻譯：
Although most people visualize interval training as a track and field concept, our preferred method of interval training is the stationary bike. Although I think running is the theoretical “best" mode of training, the facts are clear. Most Americans are not fit enough to run. In fact, statistics estimate that 60 percent of those who begin a running program will be injured. In a fitness or personal training setting, that is entirely unacceptable. Females, based on the genetics of the female body (wider hips, narrower knees) are at potentially even greater risk. Physical therapist Diane Lee says it best in her statement, “You can’t run to get fit. You need to be fit to run."

雖然大部分的人想像間歇訓練就跟田徑跑步的觀念是一樣的，但是我更喜歡在室內腳踏車上進行間歇訓練。再者，我認為跑步只是符合理論上的“最佳“訓練，但結果明顯的是，大部分的人不適合跑步這項運動。
事實上，統計數據顯示60%沒有經過訓練的跑步初學者會導致傷害的結果發生，這是完全無法被接受的結果，無論是在健身或個人訓練的的目標設定上。
以女性為例，根據基因上身體結構（較寬的臀部， 較窄的髖關節到膝蓋角度）的不同，有著較高的淺在受傷風險。
物理治療師Diane Lee說到：“不是每個人都適合通過跑步來瘦身，而是只有適合跑步的人才合適“。
