How to approach VO2 Fives
VO2 Fives loads the cardiovascular system, quads, hamstrings and glutes hardest. Shoulders, triceps and core take a share of the work too. Go out slower than feels natural: the opening effort is the one you can most afford to give away, and the positions you protect early are what you'll still have at the end.
VO2 Fives is scored on distance covered: the furthest total wins. A 25 mins cap applies, so anything unfinished at the buzzer is where your score lands.
