Use high intensity aerobic training for 2 minutes for VO2 max, and use medium, sustainable intensity for at least 20 minutes to increase long distance endurance. In a nutshell, you get better at whatever you do in training. If you sprint for 2 minutes, you'll get better at sprinting for 2 minutes; If you train for longer distances, you'll get better at sustaining longer distances. What a concept lol.

Thomas, your channel has helped me better my life and health ten fold. Your channel should be shown in school so people can be healthier earlier on

I've been doing only HIIT for a couple of months and I was missing long steady state sessions. I've been doing only aerobic sessions and I was not feeling very good. I started developing belly fat and feeling scary. I've been doing only anaerobic exercise/lifting and was getting fatter and fatter. Aerobic training is always needed, like you said Thomas. The only thing I would do if I had nothing else it would be HIIT.

I remembered seeing a documentary many years ago about a guy that didn't produce lactate forgot his name but i remembered he never got muscle fatigue was a curious and interesting case..
