A place to talk about fitness and health on Farcaster.

When he said “I’m autistic af and 2 of my special interests are fitness and speed running video games” …. I thought “I bet my crypto friends on Farcaster would like that” 😆

On using HIIT with kettlebells to improve endurance.

A July 2015 study, entitled Effects of Kettlebell Training on Aerobic Capacity  published in The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, found that “20 [minutes] of kettlebell snatching with 15s work and rest intervals…significantly increased VO2 max.”

I like running and crypto

This is part of why I disclaimed. I became a runner by z2 training and tons of slow volume myself. Not familiar with this way at all. 

But, in the replies, you will see other evidence this technique does fundamentally do what he says “improve vo2 max”. Now does that make you a runner….. 🤷🏼‍♀️

You really want to be improving your aerobic capacity rather than V02max. Light cardio / easy jogging / cycling is the best way to do it - can't imagine kettlebell swings are optimal here.

🫠 skin flaps are the worst to say nothing of a snoozer workout 🥲

well, I just tried this out and all I can say is that it was an incredibly boring 38 minutes and I’ve lost one of the calluses on my left hand 🙃

Doesn’t sound ridiculous my cardio is definitely my limiting factor for running
