Improve your V02 Max using the Norwegian 4x4 method ❤️‍🔥:
the method:
- 4 rounds of: 4 minutes of near maximal effort followed by 3 minutes at a lower pace
- Pace yourself! Start at a steady but challenging pace you know you can hold for the full 4 minutes then ramp it up towards the end of each effort
- Start at 85% finish the 4 minutes at 95% then drop down to 60% for the 3 minutes
- Use the three minutes to focus on managing your breathing, loosening off the muscles, and re-finding your rhythm before the next interval
- Think about your intention behind each phase of the intervals:
- The 4 minutes should be hard! Near maximal efforts, so put that mentality into it
- The 3 minutes are for recovering, not resting; So catch your breath, but don’t relax to the point of loosing technique or focus
the benefits:
- This method of interval training has been shown to improve your VO2 max (the maximal amount of oxygen your body can use during exercise)
- It supports heart health, as when working at near maximal efforts, you’re pushing the heart to transport more blood and oxygen around the body, improving blood flow ability and thus creating a stronger heart
- It’s not too long a session with 16 minutes of total work time, 28 if you include the 3 minute recovery, so great to slot into a busy schedule
- Off-feet conditioning! This can be done on the row-erg, ski-erg, bike, etc. Keeping the impact on the joints low. Great for returning from injuries, athletes wanting some cross-training or anyone looking to off-load the feet for a session

You’ve stuck to the plan, eaten well and trained hard all week to move yourself closer to your goal, then… boom! The weekend arrives with its social events in tow. The visual above shows how just 2-3 days of overconsuming can affect your body composition goals.

Here are two things to address to stay on track:

Have a plan: Social events can be challenging and come with various social pressures. Plan ahead by researching the menu options and selecting lighter calorie options, both for food and alcohol, if a night out is on the cards.

Get straight back on track: After enjoying yourself, don't let one day become two or three. It's important to return to your routine and healthy habits without delay. Doing so will help keep your average weekly calorie intake on point.

Remember, balance and consistency are key to achieving and maintaining your body composition goals. By planning ahead and getting back on track promptly, you can navigate social events while staying aligned with your overall objectives.

“what is a calorie?” has the highest number of Google searches with over 3 million searches per month. In this ‘ask a nutritionist’ post, we aim to break it down as simply as possible.

WHAT IS A CALORIE?

Calories are units of measurement used to quantify the amount of energy in food and drinks. From a technical perspective, a calorie is defined as the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. This concept may be familiar to some people from their school science class, where they may have used a Bunsen burner to measure the heat energy required to raise the temperature of water by a certain amount.

WHY IS ITS FUNCTION IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND?

Simply put, calories are energy in food and drinks that our body needs to function. Consuming more calories than you expend will lead to weight gain, whilst consuming less calories than you need to fulfil essential bodily functions and movement demands will lead to weight loss.

I OFTEN SEE KILOCALORIES WRITTEN ON PACKAGING - WHAT ARE THEY?

A kilocalorie (kcal) is a unit of measurement used to describe the energy content of food and drinks. It is equal to 1,000 calories and is commonly used in nutrition and calorie counting. The term "calorie" is often used to mean kilocalorie, so when a food label says "100 calories", it actually means 100 kilocalories.

Body weight is frequently used to gauge progress when working towards a specific body composition goal. Nevertheless, it is crucial to acknowledge that various external factors can influence body weight measurements, which may not accurately reflect actual fat loss or muscle gain. Consequently, relying exclusively on body weight as an indicator of progress can be misleading without proper context. In this post, we will delve into some of the factors that can impact body weight readings.

Pre-cooling, per-cooling, and post-cooling are all techniques used by athletes to manage their body temperature during exercise and improve their athletic performance.

Pre-cooling: refers to the practice of lowering the body temperature before exercise. Pre-cooling has been shown to improve endurance performance, especially in hot and humid conditions by delaying the increase in core body temperature and reducing the perception of effort.

Per-cooling: involves the use of cooling strategies during exercise to help maintain core body temperature. Per-cooling can improve performance by reducing the physiological strain associated with exercise in hot and humid conditions, leading to improved endurance and time to exhaustion.

Post-cooling: refers to the practice of cooling down the body after exercise. Post-cooling can help to reduce inflammation, muscle soreness, and fatigue, leading to improved recovery and readiness for subsequent training or competition.

Carbohydrate mouth rinses is an advanced protocol which can be used to improve performance. Whilst carbohydrate ingestion is always preferable, this technique allows for an alternative approach to work around those who need to make weight for their sport or struggle with gastro-intestinal issues.

How does it work? Rinsing a high concentration carbohydrate solution is theorised to activate the oral CHO receptors that stimulate brain regions related to reward and pleasure, and thus reducing the perceived effort of the activity. These receptors appear to be especially responsive when low on endogenous glycogen stores.

Whilst carbohydrate ingestion should be you primary choice for fuelling, the mouth rinse provides an alternate solution for the correct circumstance.

Top tip: Make sure to trial this protocol in training before using it in competition.
