Are you serious? How many people can ACTUALLY run at the 90% of max HR for 4min straight?!? That’s fucking insanely difficult 😳

Multiply by 0.9 not 9

Walk for four minutes. Run for four minutes. That's why they call it 4 x 4. It's not 4 x 3.

Isn’t 90% of your heart rate essentially a sprint?!

The 220-your age thing was made up. and doesn’t apply to like 90% of the population.

If someone is peddling that max hr formula to you, stop listening to them immediately

when someone says you should calculate a max HR based on age just ignore everything they said. they have no idea what they're talking about

I’ve been doing this and it is not easy one of the hardest things I’ve ever done when it comes to working out

My VO2 max has improved so much by doing hill intervals. I run up a hill for only about 1-1.5 minutes, then walk down, doing five intervals, 1-2 times per week.

SandNew :
4×4 interval training is a high-intensity workout consisting of four 4-minute intervals, with recovery periods between them. Warm-up: 10–15 minutes of easy exercise. Interval 1: 4 minutes at a hard intensity, around 85–95% of your maximum heart rate. Recovery: 3 minutes of easy exercise. Repeat the 4-minute interval + 3-minute recovery three more times, for a total of four intervals. Cool-down: 5–10 minutes at an easy pace. The goal is to spend a significant amount of time working at a high intensity that improves cardiovascular fitness and aerobic capacity (VO₂ max).

It’s also supposed to be on an incline I thought

Typing from Canada… :
It takes time to get your HR up to 90% and when you hit it your speed will likely drop over time. Should just pick a pace. Although likewise a pace will likely cause higher HR each rep. It’s a balancing act.

freedomrunningclub :
this is just repackaging Running 1000 at your VO2 max. Is this something that is not new, we’re just calling it Norwegian because it’s the specific type of protocol. Some of the faster runners are using. You can do the same thing by just running 1000 or 1200 if these are going to be your types of four minutes for VO2 max depending on how fit you are or could be 800 if you have a VO2 max a bit slower. Also do not walk in between this. That’s not part of the Norwegian protocol or any of these others you should be jogging in between to help clear some of the acid. So again this is nothing new, this is basically the same thing it’s just doing 1000 or whatever type of distance at your VO2 max and doing it based on heart rate is not nearly as sufficient because your heart rate takes up to five minutes to settle so I would not do it this way at all, you should definitely know what your VO2 max pace is from a recent test.

It's simple interval training. Not sure why the Norwegian name came from, but this has been around for years.
