VO2 Max Improvements
VO2 max (a measure of maximal oxygen uptake) is considered one of the best indicators of cardiorespiratory fitness. Higher cardiorespiratory levels as measured by VO2 max have been consistently linked to reduced risk of mortality and longer lifespan.
This video discusses:
• The Norwegian 4×4 & 1-minute on/1-minute off training protocols for increasing VO2 max
• Ties between VO2 max and life expectancy
• Measuring VO2 max with the Cooper test
• Why zone 2 cardio alone doesn’t guarantee VO2 max improvements
