I had two people point this article out to me last week showing  in the lab the superiority of intervals over aerobic training.

One group exercised for 5-9 minutes while the other group exercised for 5 hours and yet their results were the same? More importantly they observed the same molecular changes, including increased volume of mitochondria, which is the main reason you are told to do aerobic base training.

I tell the doubters I don’t just make this stuff up and here is yet some more proof of just how far ahead of the curve my programs are. Cardio training for mountain biking is going to change, the science is just too compelling for us to keep doing the same old stuff for no reason other than tradition. In 5-10 years when everyone acts like they knew this all along you can laugh and tell them you were on before anyone else…
