## Description

The Norwegian 4×4 protocol builds VO₂max like almost nothing else — four 4-minute pushes at 85–95% of max heart rate. The problem? Starting there feels like hitting a wall.

Crescendo removes the wall. You start with intervals as short as 30 seconds and climb a structured on-ramp, level by level, until the full 4×4 is yours. Progress is earned, never rushed — the app can even gently hold a level-up if your recovery data suggests you need it.

GUIDED SESSIONS
• Voice cues for every phase — works with the screen locked, music keeps playing
• Warm-up, four work/recovery cycles, cool-down: fully guided
• Date-anchored timing that never drifts

PERSONAL BY DESIGN
• Heart-rate zones from your real max HR — from Apple Health or set manually
• A conservative level-up gate that watches your resting HR and VO₂max trends
• Start where YOU are: from 30-second familiarization runs to the full protocol

APPLE WATCH + HEALTH
• Send any session to your Watch and run it from the native Workout app
• Watch-run sessions count toward your progress automatically
• Phone sessions save to Apple Health (your choice)

HONEST BY DEFAULT
• No account. No ads. No streak guilt.
• Your health data stays in Apple Health — we don't collect it.

High-intensity interval training is demanding. If you're unsure about your health, check with your doctor before starting.
