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.

  • JH - the way to state what you feel, given your lack of research, experience and knowledge on the subject should have been as follows: There are studies and coaches that don't support hypoxic training, along with studies and coaches that do support it. I have chosen to side with the ones that don't support it and it seems to work that way for me. Given, by your own numerous previous admissions, that you are entirely self taught and coached presently, making a statement that it is a useless skill for racing is way too strong and not adequately supported.
