Hypoxic Advice/Workouts--Not Your opinion of Hypox Efficacy
Former Member
Discusing Hypoxic sets with a freind, can anyone suggest a good hypoxic set for me.
I'm doing 3500-4000 3x a week and a short sprint workout on the weekend. I will not likely add another day to my schedule.
What's a good starting workout, and also where in my workout should I do this? Do you mix it up e.g. hard interval set then a hypox or hypox and then a pace set.
I am guessing mixing is a good thing but what's a good start point for a set and intervals for this? BR and FR being my stronger strokes.
At least once a week (I think on Thursdays) we seem to do some type of hypoxic stuff....a few examples:
5x200, breathing every 3, 5, 7, 9 by 50 (on about 3:00), some people will wear paddles
5x50, starting at 5 breaths per 50, down to 1 breath (or less), twice through (on about a minute)
6x25 underwater swimming, however you can get to the other side underwater (on about 45 sec)
You can vary the intervals...I think you're about the same speed so see if these work for you.
