The Ultimate Interval, what, when, who, why....

[David Henderson]

Hello everyone. I've written an article titled High Intensity Interval Training, for cyclists who are interested in increasing their fitness levels. My goal was to provide science-based information (as opposed to subjective, opinion, and/or anecdotal), and I include the citations for the scientific articles that I use. A lot of this information is not available to the general public because it restricted by a paywall.

 

This article has been reviewed and edited, but I always appreciate any pertinent comments and suggestions. I have found that cycling forums are ideal for information sharing. When appropriate, I do revise my article based on the feedback I receive. Please feel free to comment either on this forum or in the comments section of my article. Thanks in advance, and happy riding!

Makes sense to me. After my base training phase I generally move into a program of doing 2 HIT sessions per week and the fitness gains have been immense.

Hi David

 

I read the article quickly, bit busy at work - just a note to say thanks for quoting your references. Nothing irritates me more, when persons come out with bold unsubstantiated statements.

Nice article.

Making a late very late start to training this year and think I'm going to try out your HIT philosophy this year.

Great article - I just love this -

 

All you have to do is ride as hard as you can for one minute and rest three minutes or until you subjectively feel recovered and do it again and again until exhaustion or you see Jesus. When you see Jesus, that's when you know it's time to stop.
