Max VO2 to "Min VO2"...Disappointing Results

Tonight's training schedule was another round of MVO2. My plan was to do 50 sets, 16kg, 7+7, 15/15 protocol...I didn't get close. I ended up with another MVO2 of 40 sets, 16kg, 7+7 15/15 protocol, but I had to add two "cheater" rests of 45 seconds each. It seems that I am going backward -- not forward...Workout went like this:

Warmup: Z Health Neural Warmup; Hip mobility moves; ETK wall squats, halos, and pumps

Workout: VO2 Max workout
  • Plan: 16kg, 50 sets, 7+7, 15/15 protocol
  • Actual: 16kg, 4o set, 7+7, 15/15 protocol with 2 additional 45 second rests (ugh!)

What Next: Disappointed with the results of tonight's workout. My plan was to up the intensity this week and make next week a "little" lighter. For now I am going to stick with my plan. Tonight just may not have been "the" night to do MVO2...I'll know next week. I'm not going to panic (yet!) as I am still on track for a successful RKC cert.
