ADVICE

Preparing for the 4x4x4

  • Gradually increase sprint intervals and rest periods.
  • Start with 20 seconds on, 40 seconds off, then progress to 30 seconds on, 90 seconds off for several months.
ADVICE

Importance of Warm-up

  • Warm up for 10-15 minutes at 60-70% of your max VO2 before starting the intervals.
  • This prepares your body for the high-intensity nature of the workout.
INSIGHT

Interval Structure

  • Each interval consists of four minutes of near-maximal effort (90-95% of max heart rate).
  • This pushes you to high-end aerobic/anaerobic intensity.
