6. Training session to improve VO2 Max
In my article on lactate threshold, I gave you two training sessions to include as part of a polarized training plan.
However, this week I want to show that the 80:20 rule can apply to an individual session as well as across a block of training.
Three hours at zone two, including 6x5mins at zone five
One hour zone two
3×6 mins zone five with six minutes active recovery between efforts
30 minutes zone two
3×6 mins zone five with six minutes active recovery between efforts
Complete the rest of ride at zone two
Splitting the six efforts across two sets adds in some recovery and should mean that you are able to still produce good power even in your last interval.
