All you need is 3 busts of 20 seconds 3 times a week on the bike to improve, actually that is quite a lot for your metabolism and muscle. This program will reduce the fat in your blood stream by 1/3. What I do know from personal experience is that short burst of high intensity mixed with recovery periods of lower intensity seems to build up your cardiac performance better than mid-intensity endurance training. Yes some athletes are super responders. please refer to "IS Three Minutes of Exercise Enough? - Horizon:BBC".
So some researchers took a bunch of overweight guys (this was based on BMI numbers which as we all know is utter bull****) that hadn't trained for 2 years, got them to train intensely a few times a week and they showed a small improvement in their fitness... This isn't really anything shocking or new.
I won't even respond to your response the only thing I ask is for you to watch the entire documentary something which impossible for you since it requires a lengthy attention span.
Feel free to explain where I'm wrong. Regardless, who cares? This isn't a fitness forum for overweight men, it's a boxing forum where the vast majority of training is high intensity anyway. Why are you even posting this?
Get the f*ck out of here and come back when you've something serious to contribute. Oh, and no offence. :good
Who said this is for fat men, my point to young boxers don't over train. Had you studied the research from their studies you'd know that a young boxer doesn't need 2 hours of running our cycling a day.Vo2 Max in its own entirety is near impossible to improve however, you can improve your bodies ability to tolerate and recover from Lactic Acid thus improving your Lactic Acid Threshold and by doing so you increase your body's ability to take in oxygen and use it effectively (Vo2 Max) therefore improving your aerobic and lactate energy systems together. As for the boxing trainer quaking in their track pants, HIT has been promoted in boxing gyms for a long time now. Cross Fit gyms do nothing but HIT training. HIT applies to aerobic exercise but also to resistance trainer with weights.
Reading comprehension really isn't your strong point. The study showed overweight men gained a slight increase in fitness using a pathetically easy training protocol. This type of training (very short training times) is in no way compatible with boxing or the vast majority of athletic events. Hence the reason I asked why you posted it. Who said they do? We've known this for a very long time. :huh Again, we all know this. And...? And...? It seems you're doing a bit of research and for some reason feel the need to post every little thing you learn?
Virus watch the video your looking stupid, HIT has everything to do with boxing. Virus take the test 3 sets of 20 bursts 3x a week for 20 weeks forget skipping and at the end tell us if Your VO2 max has improved to the point that your body can process more oxygen to produce energy. If not than why skip rope, why not do very little exercise and save the cardio for the bags? This my point don't have young boxers over exercising with burpees etc!
I hope you're trolling, if not you're extremely dense. Where did I say it didn't? :huh Firstly, I already do HIIT training, have done for years. It's nothing new. Second, you're taking a study done on overweight men with the goal to improve their fitness. Why in the **** would an athlete want to use this protocol? No athlete would get anywhere doing this training. And if you think burpees equates to over training I would hate to see your pathetic training.
hey beekoff since I don't know if your smoking or poking let me ask you a question. Do you think that with enough exercise and training that you could beat Mike Tyson?
