    Why does EPO work even below VO2max?

    That is what I don't understand. By which mechanism does an athlete able to sustain 90% vo2max for an hour is likely to do the same at a higher vo2max? Why having a pace become 85% of vo2max make it easier to sustain?

    Why does EPO work even below VO2max?

    Hey, I was wondering this: if I am working at a steady-pace at, say, 90% VO2max, then it seems oxygen delivery is not a limiting factor. Why then whould taking EPO make me faster, since I don't need more oxygen? Thanks
