My V02 Max is Skyrocketing on Super Low Mileage. Here’s how.
Finally! 4 months of my V02 max in freefall after getting a stress fracture. Over the last 4 weeks it's climbed back +3 points. But I'm only running 30km/week. So how is it even possible? Join me as I discuss.
In this running vlog, I'm jogging on the beach, through a forest, along a creek and through some wet trails. It's soggy. It's rad. Come on, let's go.

    VO2 max drops quickly and is slow to get back up. As a small 53yr old woman - I struggle to get my vo2 max from 37 to 40. I would love 60!!!! I do strength training so I CAN run injury free - but I would love to know how I can improve my vo2 max. I am only aiming for the 10km race distance.

    • @AverageDomSlim
      @AverageDomSlim 8 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      V02 max is tough to build and you can’t quite predict it! the building (slowly) part is key - longer long runs and more time on feet (or cross-training) 😊
