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. I've actually done quite a bit of reading previously on this subject, and I've had many years of traditional hypoxic training. I don't know what else would qualify someone to say something about hypoxic training. What I do know is that I've never seen a study supporting added effects from hypoxic training. Can you find any?
