Wow. This goes against everything I've ever been taught about how to manage your muscles during endurance activities (In my case hiking, cycling, and Nordic skiing), yet, jibes with my experience. And here I thought there was something seriously wrong with me.
- DougBTX 17y agoEh, he does say at the end that despite not knowing the mechanism, coaches still managed to get the best performance just by looking at outcomes. There are no new exercise tips in the article.

- jimfl 17y agoSpend more time outside the aerobic zone without worrying that I'm damaging muscle tissue.
- stse 17y agoIt's strange that you hasn't done this before. Ever done interval training? Maybe your training is recreational in which case the risk of getting injured probably overshadows(?) the gains of intense interval training.
- michaelneale 17y agoI mostly do interval training (when not just doing weights) - I wonder if it is a bad thing - but I just find it so fun and non-boring...
