On this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I'm joined once again by Dr. Phil Batterson to nerd out on one of my favorite topics: anaerobic metabolism. We dig into what's really happening during high-intensity training, the role of lactate, and why much of the “anaerobic vs. aerobic” discussion you hear is oversimplified (or just plain wrong).We also get into the nuts and bolts of how your bioenergetic systems adapt, why cardio equipment can actually be a powerful training tool, and where metabolic carts fit into the picture. Along the way, Phil drops practical examples you can use to better understand your own performance. If you want a clear, science-backed breakdown of anaerobic training without the fluff, this episode is for you.Sponsors:LMNT electrolyte drink mix: https://drinklmnt.com/Get your rower and assault bike at Rouge https://miket.me/rogueAvailable now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:04:58 Personal Updates and Business Insights12:37 Anaerobic vs. Aerobic Metabolism Discussion15:00 Training Techniques and Adaptations21:07 Challenges in Hybrid Training24:43 Exploring the ATP-PC System33:59 Introduction to Bioenergetic Systems34:05 Understanding Energy Systems in Exercise34:35 The Role of ATP and Phosphocreatine35:08 Intensity and Energy System Utilization35:46 Fatigue and Muscle Contraction36:38 Misconceptions in Exercise Physiology37:42 Lactate and Its Role in Exercise40:18 High-Intensity Training Adaptations41:46 VO2 Max and Training Protocols42:40 Balancing Aerobic and Anaerobic Training43:58 Effective Training Strategies55:00 Heart Rate and Performance Metrics01:00:07 Lactate: Myths and Realities01:09:30 Buffering Capacity and Adaptations01:16:03 BFR Bands and Intense Workouts01:16:38 The Importance of Cardiovascular Training for Lifters01:17:21 Debunking Myths About Cardiac Development01:18:04 Anaerobic and Aerobic Training Insights01:18:47 Effective Aerobic Training Strategies01:19:42 Maintaining VO2 Max with Minimal Effort01:20:12 Mitochondrial Function and Effective Workouts01:20:49 Where to Find Dr. Phil Batterson01:24:13 VO2 Max Testing and Interpretation01:28:42 Challenges in Lactate Threshold Testing01:39:00 Dynamic Range and Performance01:44:59 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsFlex Diet Podcasts You May Enjoy: Episode 264: Finding Your Aerobic Sweet Spot for Peak Health with Dr Phil BattersonYouTube: https://youtu.be/5j90cmi_I6k Episode 275: Mastering Combat Sports Conditioning Using Advanced Training Techniques with Strength Coach James TognariniYouTube: https://youtu.be/t9Hc-VrsY4kConnect with Dr Phil Batterson:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drphilbatterson/Get In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

VO₂max gilt als einer der stärksten Indikatoren für Fitness und Langlebigkeit - und doch bleibt sie oft unterschätzt. Dr. Golo Röhrken erklärt, warum Ausdauertraining nicht nur Leistung steigert, sondern Mitochondrien stärkt, das Herz schützt und dein biologisches Alter senken kann.

Diese Woche sprechen Florian Gschwandtner & Martin Kaswurm über Spitzenleistungen – körperlich, geistig und wirtschaftlich. Zwischen Michelin-Sternen und VO2 MAX gibt's einen Deep Dive in die Frage: Wie nutzen die Leute ChatGPT & wie verändert sich das Lernverhalten durch KI? Mit dabei: spannende Konzepte wie Alpha School, der Goldman Sachs Family Report, die aktuelle FED-Entscheidung, Trumps Plan Quartalsberichte abzuschaffen & seine $15 Mrd.

Most of us never think about how we breathe but science shows it may be one of the most overlooked drivers of health and disease.Dr. Roger McFillin talks with Dr. Amy Lichon, a double-board-certified physician who left a successful hospital career to teach people how to heal through their breath. They explore why mouth breathing fuels anxiety, insomnia, and fatigue, how carbon dioxide and nasal breathing affect the nervous system, and why a century-old method called Buteyko could transform sleep, focus, and even athletic performance.You'll learn practical tools from a simple “control pause” test to techniques for decongesting the nose and calming the nervous system that anyone can start today. If you've tried everything for stress, sleep, or focus and nothing sticks, this conversation may reveal the missing piece.Learn more about Dr. Amy Lichon here: https://www.courami.com/ Dr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

Norges folk har valgt ny regjering, men hvordan ville vår egen sett ut?Vi ga det et forsøk å fylle ministerpostene med våre tidligere gjester.

Vi svarer på lytterspørsmål: hvorfor mindre volum og høyere innsats ofte gir bedre resultater, hvordan du kan teste VO2‑max (4x4/Cooper), hvorfor sykling sjelden gir samme puls som løping, og hvorfor grundig oppvarming (20+ min) reduserer skader. Praktiske råd for å trene hardere — men smartere. .

Dans cet épisode du podcast La Pause Fitness nous allons parler de Vo2max, frissons, perte de graisse et petit déjeuner.

Le VO₂ max, souvent considéré comme […] The post Vo2max, frissons, perte de graisse et petit déjeuner appeared first on Fitnessmith.

Coaches Cathy Duffy and Andy DuBois explain how to judge whether your training is making you fitter for ultras. They contrast general health fitness with ultra-specific fitness, review common lab metrics (VO2max, threshold) and highlight the missing pieces—durability, volume, downhill conditioning, nutrition, pacing and mental experience. They give practical tips: understand how watches and training-load scores work (and why tapering can lower a fitness number), use long runs, time trials and subjective recovery measures to track progress, and trust experience and race-specific testing to close the gap between training and race day.

Most runners are accidentally avoiding the exact training that would make them fastest.If you've ever wondered why your training feels hard but race day still falls short, this episode connects the dots. I break down the difference between Zone 2, threshold, and VO₂ Max so you can finally see how they work together instead of against each other. The right balance isn't about running more miles or suffering through every session—it's about understanding which gears to use and when. You'll learn how to train smarter, avoid wasted effort, and unlock the kind of fitness that makes race pace feel easier than you thought possible.Key TakeawaysTraining zones like Zone 2, threshold, and VO₂ Max each play a unique role in how fast and strong you can race.Formulas and guesswork often get your zones wrong, which can leave you undertrained, overtrained, or stuck in the gray zone.Knowing your real threshold unlocks smarter workouts that actually improve speed and endurance without burning you out.Timestamps[00:12] What You'll Learn[00:52] The Difference Between Zone Two Threshold and Vo Two Max[01:25] Zone 2: The Foundation of Aerobic Base Building[02:10] Run Science Nerd Break: Threshold Fun Facts[03:30] Defining Vo2 Max and Why It's So Important[04:03] Run Science Nerd Break - Aerobic vs Anaerobic[05:26] Use This Free Training Plan to Improve Your Threshold[06:16] My Vo2 Max Lactate Threshold Test Results[07:51] Why This All Matters For Runners[08:12] You Don't Have To Train Your Threshold[09:26] How I'm Training After The Test[10:16] Finish Line Thoughts: Did Maffetone Help Or Hurt Me Over the Last 13 Years?Links & Learnings

If you're interested in boosting your cardiovascular fitness, I've got three steps for you to do.  Your cardiovascular fitness - VO2 max - is the most powerful predictor of longevity. Together with your lower body strength, they will tell the story of your future.    What is VO2 max? Oxygen consumed in milliliters per kilogram per minute. Strongest predictor of longevity, alongside lower body strength. VO2 Max and muscle mass peaks typically at age 25, with studies suggesting an average annual reduction of about 1% after.   Increasing your VO2 max can significantly increase your longevity. It can reduce all-cause mortality by 10-25%. Just going from low to above-average fitness levels can reduce mortality risk by 60-70% over a decade.    The 3 Steps to Improve Cardio Fitness 1. Long slow aerobic exercise  Walking, hiking, biking, swimming. Work just below threshold (can talk, slightly breathy). 80% of the time will be spent here. 20% should be spent doing HIIT or strength training. 2. High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)  10-15% improvement in 5-10 weeks 15–30 seconds of breathless effort (sprinting effect). Breathless in 30 seconds or less. 3. Strength training Improves muscle, may enhance your body composition or weight    Improving both your fitness (oxygen delivery and use) and reducing weight means your ml/kg/min will go up as you consume more oxygen with less body weight .. and even if you don't lose weight your muscle is metabolically active and consumes oxygen while fat doesn't.    So let's come back to the value of VO2 for reducing all cause mortality.  A modest increase of 3.5 ml/kg/min (1 MET) is all it takes to reduce all-cause mortality by up to 25%.    How do you know your Cardio Fitness is improving?    Short of getting a VO2 max test, you can measure in other ways:  Resting heart rate – first thing in morning  Recovery heart rate at end of interval and one minute later One-mile walk test   Why Muscle Still Matters? More muscle = higher oxygen demand → better VO2 Max. Fat mass doesn't contribute to oxygen use. Muscle quality declines with age → requires smarter training, especially during menopause.   Watch this episode on Flipping50TV YouTube.   References:  Journal of American College of Cardiology. 2018, PMID: 30384883.

Време е за още един вълнуващ епизод от #realitycheck сериите ни. В него тестваме нашите VO2 max и други важни телесни показатели, които ще Ви покажат още информация, ако искате и Вие да разберете повече за спсобностите на Вашето тяло и за това как се справяте в спортния си път. Благодарим за съдействието на DexaFit София, които любезно направиха нашите тестове и откликнаха да ги анализираме заедно чрез техния управляващ директор Денис Колев, който и довежда световната компания у нас. Тестовете, които направихме бяха за VO2 max, което е показател за аеробната издръжливост и кардиореспираторната форма, който представлява максималното количество кислород, което тялото може да използва по време на интензивна физическа активност. По-високата стойност на VO2 max означава, че тялото по-ефективно използва кислорода за производство на енергия, което води до по-добра издръжливост, по-малко умора и по-добро цялостно здраве. VO2 max. е показател за атлетичната производителност и трябва да се увеличава, когато нивото на физическата Ви подготовка се подобрява. Водещият световен експерт по дълголетие Питър Атия вярва, че VO2 max може да се счита за показател на продължителността на живота. Познавайки Вашият VO2 max можете да таргетирате Вашите тренировки спрямо целите, които имате, а именно да възстановявате, горите мазнини или тренирате сърцето и аеробната си издръжливост по-добре. Сканирахме и телата си с DexaFit скенер, който дава информация за телесния състав, разпределението на подкожните мазнини и нивата на висцералните мазнини. Здравето на опорно-двигателния апарат, оценка на състоянието на мускулите, симетрията, силата на скелета и потенциалните рискове, свързани със саркопения и остеопороза. Оценка на рисковете за здравето, биологичната възраст и потенциалните рискове за заболявания като сърдечни болести и диабет. Направихме си и Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) тест, който показва скоростта на метаболизма ни в покой - броят на калориите, които тялото изгаря без да правим нищо. От изследването става ясен и коефициента на дихателна обмяна (RER), който разкрива предпочитаните от тялото Ви източници на гориво. В теста ще разберете и сърдечния си ритъм в покой, което предоставят ценна информация за риска от заболявания, които ще попречат на Вашето дълголетие. С данните от изследването може да подобрите диетата си за оптимална енергийна ефективност и избягване на преяждане или недояждане, след като вече знаете точните си калорийни нужди и предпочитано гориво.

Ever catch yourself crushing in business…but low-key running on fumes? Like you're pushing hard, but your body's throwing quiet warnings you can't quite decode? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm resharing a powerful Guest Guru training from inside The Happy Hustle Club—our private community featuring Justin Roethlingshoefer, Celebrity Health Expert and Founder of Own It Coaching. Justin doesn't sell hacks; he engineers paradigm shifts. His mission: help leaders stop sacrificing health for the mission and start running their bodies like their business.Justin's story is raw and real. As a kid, he battled both obesity and anorexia and even faced liver and kidney failure at 16. That pain turned into purpose: two undergrads, a master's, pro hockey, a doctorate's worth of research on sleep and heart rate variability (HRV), plus deep training in functional medicine and cellular healing. He went on to become Director of Player Performance in the NHL, then stepped away after a personal health scare (precancerous polyps and a bleeding ulcer) to build Own It Coaching with his wife—a 50-person team now guiding 3,500+ high-performing founders and creators. They even built “The Health Haven” in Miami to show people how to live differently, daily. Why it matters: Justin is the rare coach who blends faith, science, and systems so your health outcomes become inevitable, not accidental.Here's what you'll learn in a nutshell:HRV is the language of your body. A higher HRV = better adaptation to stress.Oxygen is step one. VO₂ max isn't just for athletes—it's a wellness vital.Sleep is your detox system. Quality beats quantity.Fix the base before the boosters. Symptoms (low T, poor sleep, brain fog) rarely mean you “need more hormones.” Hormones open pathways; vitamins, minerals, and amino acids create the raw materials.Consistent + intentional behaviors over time = inevitable outcomes. If you're ready to go deeper and hear Justin's full training—the stories, the frameworks, and the practical protocols—hit play on the episode and let's level up your health, leadership, and longevity together.

What if the research indicated there was an inexpensive breathing exercise device that, if utilized about 5 minutes/day, could significantly reduce blood pressure and improve exercise performance? Resisted breathing – or what the science refers to as “inspiratory muscle strength training” – or IMST - isn't new. I remember reading about it, but at the time it appeared to be all fluff as our intercostal breathing muscles were almost never utilized at capacity, so who cares if we strengthen them? Fast forward a decade or so and it turns out we might all care. Whether you or a loved one has high blood pressure and would like to access options beyond just medications, or you're a runner, triathlete, swimmer or cyclist looking to optimize your performance – IMST may be worth a closer look. Today we'll take that closer look with Dr. Daniel Craighead, who's groundbreaking work in this area is both fascinating and eye-opening. Dr. Craighead is a leading exercise physiologist and cardiovascular health researcher at the University of Minnesota, where he focuses on innovative, time-efficient interventions to combat age-related declines in cardiovascular and metabolic health. His research on high-resistance inspiratory muscle strength training has shown that just five minutes a day of targeted breathing exercise can significantly lower blood pressure, enhance vascular function, and improve exercise tolerance — all without traditional aerobic training. Today, he joins The Coaching Lab to unpack how this simple, science-backed technique is reshaping approaches to both peak performance and everyday health.The Powerbreathe unit Dr. Cooper has been using available here.You can stay up to date on Dr. Craighead's latest research via his lab website and if you'd like to tune into another interview he provided for NPR, it is available here.Info re earning your health & wellness coaching certification, annual Rocky Mountain Coaching Retreat & Symposium & more via https://www.catalystcoachinginstitute.com/ Best-in-class coaching for Employers, EAPs & wellness providers https://catalystcoaching360.com/ Tap into the home of the (freely available) Not Done Yet! articles on unlocking life's 2nd half here.

I'm thrilled to bring you Dave Pascoe—a former network security architect turned longevity athlete and biohacker—whose measured approach to anti‑aging is both rigorous and refreshingly practical. We trace Dave's journey from teenage hacker to data‑driven health optimizer, the telomere wake‑up call that shifted his mindset, and how he now tracks biological age with epigenetic testing (including the DunedinPACE “pace of aging” algorithm popularized by TrueDiagnostic). We also unpack the Rejuvenation Olympics—what the leaderboard actually measures and how to think about it without the hype. If you've heard buzzwords like “pace of aging” and wondered what they really mean, we translate them into plain English here. From there we get tactical: why Dave cut out ultra‑processed foods (we touch on the NOVA classification so you can spot them fast), how he reframed running and training, and why VO₂ max is one of the strongest fitness predictors of longevity. We compare sprint work vs. endurance for healthspan, dive into SHBG and testosterone (and why carbs, stress, and training load matter), and talk sleep, meditation, and the often‑ignored lymphatic system—including why movement is non‑negotiable because your lymph relies on muscle contraction to flow. Expect clear takeaways you can apply this week: food upgrades, training levers, recovery basics, and lab markers that actually move the needle. Finally, we open the hood on Dave's AI‑driven supplement schedule—how he used large language models to de‑conflict ~100+ ingredients into practical AM/PM dosing, and why he's building a personal GPT that ingests labs, wearables, and genetics for personalized protocols. We also level‑set on gene‑therapy hype, “exercise in a pill,” and influencer blueprints versus fundamentals. The mantra we land on is simple: “Comfort is good, capability is better.” Listen in for the frameworks, the mistakes to avoid, and a preview of Part 2, where we'll walk through Dave's public playbook so you can build your own.

Phil Batterson is a competitive runner, former running coach, and the founder of Critical Oxygen. Phil has a PhD in human bioenergetics and a love for all sorts of endurance sports, from rowing to track and field and ultras. His goal with Critical Oxygen is to teach athletes and coaches how to optimize their physiology to maximize endurance performance. This episode is important and is a repost of episode 330 from 2023. Phil breaks down some of the complex physiology behind the three different thresholds to make it more accessible, as well as providing practical ways to apply it in training. Some of our discussion includes: Phil's journey into endurance training and exercise science What physiology defines each of the three thresholds How runners can determine their own thresholds The importance of lactate threshold work for race preparation Common mistakes when using training zones How to integrate VO2 max work with cross training Whether you like to geek out on physiology or just want to race faster, you'll learn a lot from my conversation with Phil!

Your fancy smartwatch is lying to you about your VO2 max, and chasing that number is sabotaging your race timesMost runners obsess over VO₂ max, but few really understand what it means or how to use it. In this episode, I break down the truth about what VO₂ max actually measures, why your watch might be misleading you, and how to train in a way that builds lasting fitness. If you've ever wondered why your numbers don't match how strong you feel, or how to make sense of VO₂ workouts without burning out, this conversation will give you the clarity and tools to get there.Key TakeawaysVO2 max shows your genetic potential for using oxygen, but having a high number doesn't guarantee fast race times.Smartwatches often give inaccurate VO₂ max numbers because they can't measure things like sleep, recovery, or stress.The right workouts and patience can help you train smarter, improve steadily, and unlock real race-day performance.Timestamps[00:15] What You'll Learn[00:49] Vo2 Max Defined[03:29] How To Improve Your Vo2 Max[07:24] Use This To Improve Your Vo2 Max Now[08:03] Run Science Nerd Break - Vo2 Max Tops Out[09:03] Why Smart Watches Get It All Wrong[09:51] Why You Need Patience To Improve Your Vo2 Max[11:01] Use This To Get a Higher Vo2 Max and Race FasterLinks & Learnings

Send us a textWe all know movement is good for us. But can the right kind of exercise actually slow the aging process itself?In this episode, Dr. Kevin White talks with Benjamin Miller, Ph.D., professor of aging research at OMRF and past president of the American Aging Association, about what really happens to our muscles and mitochondria as we age, and how his new NIH-funded clinical trial is working to answer one of the most important questions in longevity science: why do some people respond to exercise better than others?"Every drug we study is just trying to be as good as exercise — and exercise still wins."Dr. Miller explains the biology of aging in plain language, from protein damage to energy production, and shares why exercise still outperforms any “miracle drug” on the market. He also unpacks the design of his new trial, where people 60 and older will receive supervised training, advanced health testing, and wearables to measure everything from VO₂ max to sleep — all with the goal of predicting who benefits most from which type of exercise.In this episode:Why exercise is still the closest thing we have to a longevity drugHow mitochondria and protein health drive resilience as we ageWhat VO₂ max actually measures — and why it predicts lifespanThe role of genetics vs. lifestyle in how our bodies respond to trainingHow to get involved in Dr. Miller's NIH-backed exercise study at OMRFThis conversation is a reminder that slowing aging isn't about hacks or shortcuts — it's about moving, staying engaged, and using science to make every decade stronger than the last.

Visit ⁠https://longevitybuilders.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover the book and The Longevity Builder Health Lab.Key ConceptsThe Workshop Analogy: Knowledge requires tools. The Longevity Builder Health Lab is introduced as a digital "workshop" for health, inspired by his son's physical woodworking workshop.VO2 Max & Hazard Ratio: A low VO2 Max (your body's oxygen efficiency score) has a Hazard Ratio of 5.0—a 400% increased risk of premature death, making it the most powerful predictor of longevity.Hypoxic Training: This involves exercising in a low-oxygen environment that mimics high altitude, forcing your body to adapt and improve its oxygen efficiency.Shane uses analogies to simplify the benefits:Cardiovascular Overhaul: Your heart's main pumping chamber gets bigger, increasing its capacity (stroke volume). This lowers your resting heart rate. (Analogy: A standard car engine is swapped for a powerful V8.) Blood flow improves, stimulating Nitric Oxide production, which widens arteries and lowers blood pressure. (Analogy: A city planner widening roads.) HDL cholesterol increases, acting like a cleanup crew that removes plaque. (Analogy: An elite hazmat crew cleaning a toxic spill.)Metabolic Upgrade: Exercise creates an insulin-independent pathway for cells to absorb glucose, combating insulin resistance. (Analogy: A high-security building with a secret VIP back door for fuel deliveries.)Cellular Enhancements: Hypoxic training builds new, more efficient mitochondria (cellular power plants) and recycles old ones. (Analogy: A city upgrading its power grid.) It also increases red blood cells, enhancing oxygen transport. (Analogy: A logistics company upgrading its fleet of vans to semi-trucks.)Brain Health: The process releases BDNF ("Miracle-Gro for the brain"), which supports neuron growth and connections. It also improves deep, restorative sleep, during which the brain flushes out toxins. (Analogy: A library's A-Team and an elite overnight restoration crew.)Shane ends with a powerful personal story about his father, who died at 46 from a preventable heart attack, and emphasizes the importance of a personal "why" for building longevity.

You wouldn't run a business without KPIs, so why are you running your body without them?Data is only helpful if it leads to better decisions. In this episode, I walk through the five (5) key metrics I track which range from cardiovascular fitness to micronutrient intake, blood pressure, and sleep quality. I also share how I spent years getting diagnostic tests (that were helpful to me at the time, but didn't exactly induce behavioral change in my clients) and how to avoid that trap. Whether you're an executive, entrepreneur, or just someone who wants to perform at a higher level, this episode is your cheat sheet for measurable, meaningful progress. 20 years of mistakes taught me this and I'm giving it to you in 30 minutes.So tune in because these five are the foundation, and once they're in place, everything else gets easier.Episode Timeline: 0:00 – Episode Preview1:26 – Why Most People Misuse Health Data5:44 – Ben's Gut Issues and Testing Journey7:28 – The Phase Where I Overcomplicated Everything10:47 – Metric #1: VO2 Max and Longevity14:15 – Metric #2: Track Your Macros and Micros18:24 – Metric #3: Blood Pressure is Killing Your Progress22:38 – Metric #4: The Blood Markers That Actually Matter25:09 – Metric #5: Sleep Is the Real Game Changer30:16 – Bonus Metrics: Steps and Fiber31:31 – Conclusion for Foundational Metrics 32:50 – Podcast OutroLinks & Resources:Connect with Ben on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/Learn more about Ben's coaching programs: www.bodysystems.comSubscribe to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show on Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube

Is Zone 2 cardio really the key to longevity and fat loss—or have we been misled? In this solo episode, Louisa challenges the fitness status quo and reveals why low-intensity steady-state cardio might be wasting your time—especially if you're a woman. Drawing on new 2025 research and her deep background in exercise physiology, Louisa explains how men and women respond differently to training, and why higher-intensity workouts may be far more effective for improving mitochondrial health, brain aging, VO2 max, and metabolic flexibility. If you're a woman in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or 60s trying to optimize your longevity, brain function, and body composition—this is a must-listen.  True optimization and longevity never come from comfort alone. You'll learn: Why Zone 2 may not improve mitochondrial health like you think The real training zones that boost VO2 max, fat oxidation & brain function How perimenopausal and menopausal women must train differently The exact weekly routine to optimize longevity, body comp & cognition *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.

This is a critical look at our previous podcast episodes on VO2max training, and with hindsight provide new and additional context on those training recommendations, plus other effective ways to do VO2max training, with their coaching and contextual aspects. We investigate some instances of "VO2max blocks" in the scientific literature, reexamine the 30/15s paper, and discuss additional factors that confound the interpretation of those and other published results before considering how we can use that information to our advantage when training.

VO2 max intervals are flashy, hard, and wildly misunderstood. In this solo episode, I break down how to actually use VO2 max work to boost your HYROX performance without burning yourself into the ground.You'll learn:What VO2 max training actually is (and what it's not)Why your heart rate data might be lying to youHow to structure intervals that build speed, power, and toleranceWhen VO2 work makes you stronger… and when it's just junk volumeAnd how to use it wisely inside group fitness or CrossFit-style programmingRMR Training APP  Podcasthttps://www.rmr.training/rmr-app-podRMR Training App- Communityhttps://www.rmr.training/rmr-training-app-2Off- Seasonhttps://www.rmr.training/base-builder-podcast

This is a practical guide to FTP training, through three lenses: where you are in your season, where you are in your training journey, and opportunity cost. In each instance we think about reasonable expectations for improvement, if you should add more power or interval time, when to switch to VO2max training, periodization strategies, and how to prioritize your training. We also answer listener questions on over unders, progressing longer or shorter intervals, block training, in-season maintenance, and more.

Head over to Eat Happy Kitchen and order yours! (3:00) Answering questions from X to clear up fitness confusion: Where does the 220 come from in the heart rate equation of “220 minus your age”? (9:00) Vinnie explains the origin of the “220”. (11:00) It's an average heart rate, and the Zones are a breakdown from there. Zone 2 is 180- your age. He also explains why there may be some variations. Zone 2 is the most important because it allows you to be the most aerobically fit. (18:30) HIIT training is important, too, but after weeks of training in Zone 2. You have to build a base. Vinnie suggests HIIT once a week. VO2 Max is the volume of oxygen uptake, or the maximum volume of oxygen you can handle at any given time. (22:30) It is not unusual for the average person over a certain age to be on 10 or 11 medications. (25:00) The side effects from medications are jarring. They discuss stress and its effects on the body. Gadgets Galore Anna's gotten some new kitchen gadgets: An herb stripper tool A stuffed waffle maker Travel Butty portable bidet (36:00)  She is also testing a system using magnets to soften water.
