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.

I really don't get the point of holding your breath for long sets.Which part don’t you get? Long sets or breath holding or both.
“I don't think anyone has identified a unique physiological response in the lungs or the muscles to hypoxic training.”
And if you would do a little more googling you will find quite a few articles providing specific benefit in the lungs or the muscles to hypoxic training. But obviously you are entitles to yor opinion on this subject so keep doing what works for you.
