Default Re: Terrible VO2Max, any suggestions?

[ QUOTE ]
I've never read that HIIT is better at increasing VO2Max than steady-state training of equal difficulty. In fact, most of the cycling training methodology would seem to indicate the opposite. Perhaps you can point me to some references JR ?

The gold standard source I've seen quoted time and time again regarding VO2max and HIIT is the Tabata study, which was done on well conditioned athletes and which JR is not recommending.
