Do a-lactic hill sprints count as a weight training session?

To be technically correct 10 seconds is too long to be considered alactic

What is your current running/lifting program?

Does tacos count as a sandwich?

I lift twice a week on running workout days.

Lol attempted a hill workout today (30-60 second hill and a circuit on the hilltop). That dang wind was everywhere. Had to wrap things up early. The freezing vortex into the throat and lungs was unpleasant. The hill and fields were stark and empty. Still, the attempt at abandon and fun was, nonetheless, fun.

Let me add to this poetic story:

Striving boldly up yet another hill the athlete finally realized what it was like to truly be alive as the stressors of a non alactic repeat came to bear on his frail body. Alas, the splendor of the challenge made itself aware as he was truly engrossed in a renewed flavor which now defined his previously empty existence.

That's probably a little too much. Cut out one of the hill sprint or lifting sessions. That way, you still get three days of explosive training and better recovery.

Poetry fail. Misuse of the word alas in vain attempt at parody.

What are you training for? How’s it going? How old are you? How long have you been training? I echo the sentiment of one of the respondents who said that your proposed schedule seemed too intense, but I’d like to hear your answers to the above questions to get a better idea of your overall fitness before I pass judgment.

You need to edit it then. Let’s create the work together

Let's talk training instead.

I think the OP should do the hill sprints and then the lifting immediately afterwards, because the lifting session requires a high intensity warm up to get the most benefit. And hill sprints are high intensity/low impact.

I agree for different reasons. Fast to slow movements and the weight training acts as recovery as their is a global release of testosterone and growth hormone from it.

Also, if you want to keep the hills alactic, limit them to 6 seconds and include a 3+ minute rest to allow phosphocreatine levels to rebound 80+ percent seeing for the best power output possible as the end goal is not aerobic capacity.
