Gobi, are those zones based on MHR, or WHR?

Yep - once you start motoring in the zones, it can change. I remember being able to put myself almost in z3 walking some Cornish hills, but then a couple of months later, running them in z2.

Well done Paul. That probably took a lot of discipline. Tomorrow think about how much fatigue you would have carried from 16 miles before compared to how you feel. Then remind yourself that you're getting a more effective training effect from it.

Thanks Nellers. Wasn't too bad to be honest, wee small strides, like running up hill for three hours 😁

About This Thread

Maintained by Elderberry
Everything you need to know about training with a heart rate monitor. Remember the motto "I can maintain a fast pace over the race distance because I am an Endurance God". Mind the trap door....

Gobi lurks here, but for his advice you must first speak his name. Ask and you shall receive.

A quote:

"The area between the top of the aerobic threshold and anaerobic threshold is somewhat of a no mans land of fitness. It is a mix of aerobic and anaerobic states. For the amount of effort the athlete puts forth, not a whole lot of fitness is produced. It does not train the aerobic or anaerobic energy system to a high degree. This area does have its place in training; it is just not in base season. Unfortunately this area is where I find a lot of athletes spending the majority of their seasons, which retards aerobic development. The athletes heart rate shoots up to this zone with little power or speed being produced when it gets there." Matt Russ, US International Coach
