VO2 max is a key indicator of cardiovascular fitness.
It represents the maximum amount of oxygen your body can utilize during intense exercise.
To improve your VO2 max:
  • High-Intensity Intervals: Workouts targeting Zone 5.
  • Fartlek Training: unstructured speed play.
  • Tempo Runs: Sustained efforts at a challenging pace.
"The higher your VO2 max, the more efficient your oxygen delivery."
Have you ever tested your VO2 max?
