Another VO2 Workout! These efforts are generally more Intermediate-Advanced at these durations, but if you're new and would like to try these out, just decrease the duration of each individual rep and increase the frequency to give you more frequent recovery. This would look more like "10x 1minute VO2 Effort, 1minute rest," giving you ample opportunity to take a break and get a drink! This workout is designed to push your aerobic capacity and improve your ability to sustain high-intensity efforts, so this will be difficult. Again, these are not maximum efforts, nor are they easy. They should each feel challenging though they should also be achievable with the rest provided. If you find yourself in need of more rest after 1 or 2 efforts, just decrease the intensity by 3-5% for the subsequent reps.
