CHAPTER

Optimizing Workouts with Muscle Oxygen Saturation Levels

This chapter explores how muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) levels can be used to guide training intensity levels, focusing on different zones for various exercises from recovery sessions to threshold pace efforts. It delves into the benefits of using SmO2 measurements during high-intensity interval training, highlighting their role in maximizing oxygen utilization capacity in muscles while avoiding going anaerobic. The discussion also covers the applications of SmO2 testing for triathletes and the importance of interpreting data from devices like Moxy for enhanced training outcomes.
