By working just above Threshold in Zone 4 and into Zone 5, we can improve our VO2max abilities and increase our Threshold. These are high-intensity efforts, so the intervals are broken down into shorter work periods.

A well developed VO2max system will allow you to recover from high-intensity efforts faster and increase endurance.
