Follicular Phase VO2 Session Scheduling
Follicular phase VO2 session scheduling places near-max intervals in mid-follicular days when repeat power and discomfort tolerance often peak.
Follicular phase VO2 session scheduling places three-to-eight minute near-max intervals in days five through sixteen when repeat power and mental tolerance for discomfort often peak. Book after rest day, not after heavy squat night unless recovery metrics stay green.
One VO2 session per week suffices for many cyclists and runners. Luteal can hold shorter VO2 maintenance if needed.
Common questions
-
When should I schedule VO2 max intervals in my cycle?
Many athletes place them mid-follicular after a rest day. If late luteal repeats fail, defer VO2 to the next follicular window rather than forcing extra sessions.
