Episode notes
VO2 Max and Longevity
- VO2 max, your ability to burn oxygen, is the strongest predictor of life expectancy.
- Improve VO2 max with efficient workouts on the right bike.
REHIT vs. Long Cardio
- Long, steady-state cardio can increase cortisol and have a catabolic effect, potentially leading to muscle loss.
- REHIT, Reduced Exertion High Intensity Interval Training, offers a more efficient approach.
Less is More with REHIT
- Two 20-second all-out sprints on a CAROL bike efficiently stimulate fitness improvements.
- This short duration is less taxing and easier to adhere to than longer HIIT workouts.
