What was the longest time you've worked out?

For me, it was 3 hours of swimming. But it was with a friend and the time passed pretty fast. Competition is the best inspiration for me.

3 hours:
15 minute warmup
1 hour of power on erg (60 seconds on erg pulling a sub 2:00 split, 60 seconds doing a core exercise)
10 mile run (don't really remember how long it took... about 75 minutes I think)
15 minutes of relay work
15 minute cooldown

that next day hurt SO bad

used to have 4 hour practices with the swim club during "hell week" ie winter break. 1 hour of that was usually dryland, which kept it bearable. Capped the week with a 6 hour practice, which was awfully shitty.

This seems really...dumb

Anything over 2 hours you really aren't going to get any benifit from.

That seems like a silly thing to do.

Like, olympic lifting is great, but 3 hours of it?

Unless a lot of that time was just practicing with very low weight.

it would be about half and half technique and strength gain

starting out i would do presses, then work on snatch form up to a 2 or 3 rep heavy set, then c&j form, then finish with back squats or front squats

2 minutes between each set and lots of stretching and warmup, but still concentrating all the time.

many pro oly lifters train 2x a day 3 hours at a time, every day.

their bodies just build up to that kind of endurance

international level lifters will do that. usually a morning and an evening session. but then they will have access to unlimited recovery techniques as well as an advanced training age to work from.
