Interval Training Intensity Distribution in Road Racing
Training intensity distribution effects were studied in 75 competitive road racers over 6-month period. Groups followed either polarized (easy/hard), pyramidal (easy/moderate/hard), or threshold-focused training models. Polarized approach produced greatest improvements in VO2max, lactate threshold, and race performance. The high-intensity sessions were performed at 95-105% VO2max intensity with complete recovery between intervals.
