In this episode, I break down the real differences between High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), general interval training, and VO2 max training. I explain how I structure each method, the specific physiological adaptations they create, and why understanding the work-to-rest ratio is crucial for getting real results.
I talk about how HIIT drives fast conditioning and fat loss through intense anaerobic bursts, how interval training flexibly targets different goals depending on intensity and duration, and how VO2 max training pushes the cardiovascular system to its absolute limit by maximizing oxygen delivery and utilization. I also share why it’s so important to match your training style to your personal fitness goals, how the body responds differently to each intensity, and what to focus on if you want to train smarter and perform better.
