      @@lusaedkas1222 Depending on your fitness level and training status 4x4 min could work for you. But they are on the higher end time wise so you would want to build up to them to get the maximum benefit from them.

      @@lusaedkas1222 If you are not able to maintain the 4 minute intervals at the 18 kph then it indicates that the intensity might be to high or the interval to long.
      It would be good to do a 20 min functional threshold pace test (google it to find the details) to find your correct training zones so you can base your intervals on these zones.

    What I especially liked about this video is that it gave clear and targeted advice to people in different situations.
    'Already fit and have been doing this for a while? Then this is what you need to do to keep progressing.'
    'If you're just starting out, then do this instead, and do this differently.'
    'If you're heavy, do this to lighten the burden on your joints to prevent injuries, etc.'
    Excellent video by every standard. Great advice, and nice work!

    Hickson protocol gives most VO2max from all research papers there are. However everything works, as long as you stay around vo2max speed. Which is approx your best 2km speed. The shortest way to improve is 3x20 sec sprints with 4 minutes rest. However 3 minutes makes heart grow, 30 seconds makes your blood better. Training once a week is already effective, you just need more weeks.

    @Matty Graham I recently took a VO2 Max test for a job interview. The test requires all candidates to have a VO2 Max equal to or greater than 50 ml/kg/min. One of the candidates passed his test at just 12 minutes into the test. I lasted 15 min however and failed. Is this because my anaerobic threshold is higher than his? I am confused how I lasted longer, yet he had a higher VO2 Max. Your videos have been very helpful so far and I look forward to hearing back from you.

    How long should you use the 30s on/30 off intervals before progressing up to 1min on/off etc.
    Also, how many times per week would be optimal?

    • @MattyEPC
      @MattyEPC  3 года назад

      Try 2 times per week to start with and see how you feel.
      Start with 1-2 sets of 5x 30:30 and build to 3-4 sets over a couple of weeks.
      Once you have built this base volume up you can drop the sets and start building the time up depending on how you respond to them.

    • @GaborToth83
      @GaborToth83 8 лет назад +1

      +Jade Cleveland They are both good, you could do more quality reps from the 30/30s. If you have the chance, use a power sensor, and keep them doing until a significant power drop. A really good session, what Matty did not mention is the classic pyramid interval, when you do 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1 min intervals. Great way to train both vo2max (3-4-5min intervals) and anaerobic endurance (1-2 min intervals)

    • @MattyEPC
      @MattyEPC  8 лет назад +2

      +Jade Cleveland As +Garbor Toth has mentioned both are good and 40/20 would be a good progression following on from 30/30.
      At the end of the day they are just different tools for the job. You don't want to just do one interval set over and over again. It needs to be progressed so you continue to get adaptation and improve.

    • @MattyEPC
      @MattyEPC  8 лет назад +2

      +Gabor Toth Exactly right, and the 40/20 can be used as a progression from the 30/30 session. That classic pyramid is a killer session :)

      semaj brown you need speed training to improve your mile if you are already in good shape, not AT training. Working on ur AT will help but speed training is slightly more important in this case since you are well fit. Focus on 400m sprints with 5min rest intervals

    @joellynch3404 4 года назад

    I was wondering, when interval training, simply standing around or walking around waiting for the next high intensity run period, does that provide an adequate recovery period to clear lactate, or is light jogging the preferred style?

    • @MattyEPC
      @MattyEPC  4 года назад +1

      It depends what you are looking to get from the session. If you are training VO2max light active recovery is key to help reduce lactate build up. If you are training threshold or lactate tolerance then more inactive recovery can help keep those levels high or if you are doing max sprint and power type efforts then complete recovery is important to restore your ATP supplies.

    is pace (or power) supposed to diminish throughout a set of the 30on/offs. If I were running max 200s w/ 30sec they would definitely get slower. Is that ok for this type of workout or is it more ideal to have them even?

      It's inevitable you will slow down after a few reps at this intensity.
      Set a target time for the 200 one you can maintain for all of the session but keep the recovery the same ie if you set your time say 10x 200 in 30, 32 seconds or if your not that fit adjust to suit your fitness.This idea of running flat out will lead you to frustration.

  • @michaellincoln2117

    You said "max effort" when describing the 200s? A full 200 sprint would require far greater than 30sec recovery to avoid injury. Maybe you meant max VO2 effort? My understanding is even at VO2 max workouts, you are not sprinting 200 meters. Can you better describe the effort on the 200s when using only 30 sec rest.

      @@MattyEPC thanks Matty 😃. Just so it’s clear to me (I’m new to this, so forgive my question if it’s stupid ha) it’s a sustained effort at just above VO2 Max, repeated for multiple intervals, and each interval the Intensity must progressively increase to maintain your pace, and after enough intervals, you reach a point where you can’t maintain the pace and max out?

      It really depends on your training history and what phase of training you are on.
      Start out doing them once a week then build to twice a week. See how you are responding and if you are in a race prep phase then you could bump it up to three times a week if you were handling the load ok.

  • @mikehopkins4040
    @mikehopkins4040 2 года назад +1

    Sorry but you are wrong .You can't run flat out for 30 seconds with 30 seconds recovery, you would get too about 5 or 6 reps before you would have so much lactic acid you would have to stop.
    The best way is to set a target time for an above average club runner running 200s in 30,32 seconds with 30 seconds recovery starting with 8,10 reps
    pushing upto 15,20 reps over a month twice a week.The benefit comes in keeping the recovery at the 30 seconds.
    The whole idea of training is to train not race sessions.If you had a group of athletes about the same standard doing the session in the way you recomend it would turn into a burn up all running flat out to exhaustion.

      @MattyEPC  2 года назад +1

      I agree, I didn't use the best language to describe the intensity when I made this video. Words such as strong, hard but sustainable for 30 seconds, 95-100% of VO2max velocity would have been better.
