0:00I hear a lot about VO2 maxes, so I thought, but we should all be driving our cardiovascular

0:08performance up to get a high VO2 max.

0:10Well, that's where the intensity is.

0:12Yeah, I think it.

0:13That's the only one.

0:14I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding after reading and watching everything

0:17is doesn't take that much to build VO2 max.

0:19No, it's that high intensity that's a little bit uncomfortable where you're pushing

0:24at that max for, you know, about four minutes to build that VO2 in the sports science

0:31world.

0:32It's always been the four by four than the norwegian four by four.

0:35Four minutes on, four minutes off, four minutes on, four minutes off.

0:38But that's not three days a week.

0:39No, not at all.

0:40We should protocols once a week.

0:41Once a week at the most, right?

0:43And the other sprints just to give you, I tend to give my examples because it makes

0:48it more real.

0:49When I'm doing sprint intervals, I do it the 30 seconds on and then complete recovery,

0:57meaning I'm for 30 seconds, I'm taking my heart rate as high as I can get it.
