Good question. I don’t really have a simple answer.Hello , what would a program geared toward increasing aerobic capacity look like?Sort of like a “program minimum” for aerobic capacity using the modalities you mention above, Thank you for the help
My perspective and experience says…
It depends greatly on where your baseline is and what your goals are. A completely detained individual would go about increasing aerobic capacity, differently than a seasoned endurance athlete wanting to ‘take it to the next level’. There are a lot of variables that would need to be known before one could properly answer this question.
Walking however is almost always a safe bet and something that can be done daily.
Knowing ones AeT or MAF number and basing your training around that is also key. Basically you want to do a large percentage of your training at or just below these numbers. This holds true virtually for any endurance athlete.
