On this episode of the Training Science Podcast, we break down what actually separates a fast Hyrox time from a slow one, and it's not the discipline most athletes spend the most time training. Watch the full episode: youtube.com/watch?v=ceiOPgaN… @PaulBLaursen

Low-intensity rowing with #BFR enhances #VO2max in #Rowing, marking a promising approach for boosting aerobic capacity. Thanks to all contributors @LarsDonath @LudwigRappelt @TNWiedenmann @janphilip_d @rudern @Deutschland8er @BISp_Bund
Here, 15 sessions of low-intensity rowing with blood flow restriction (BFR) with a cumulative total load of 5 hours over a 5-week macrocycle increased V̇O2max in highly elite, male rowers.
