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.
Using the FINIS snorkel can definitely can be similar to a hypoxic set...especially if you "forget" yourself and go a little too hard.
Some of the local USS and college coaches use those constrictor thingies (cardio caps?) that are supposed to simulate altitude training (sounds a little dubious to me). That's a bit much for me.
