Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

There are those that don't use %WHR in structuring their training, and who would argue that the longer runs should be around 65%MHR!!! There are some VERY quick runners who would advocate *that* approach, but the significant majority of people in that camp are not!
Personally I think that it's horses for courses. You have a structure that works for you, and you are continuing to see improvement, and I think that the added bonus of running with the club will bring that process on even more so!

And yes - your HR gives an indication of the effort and intensity for any particular run, given all the variables that can affect it!

I have to try something, my Gran could beat me in races at the minute and she's been dead for six years! I have several monitors that I have bought over the years that just sit and collect dust so I may as well start using them properly.

Mudskipper - apologies if you thought you'd been ignored - It wasn't intentional.

So - what is it that you are thinking about doing?

Only joking! ;) I am having difficulty finding a wborking heart rate. My heart rate climbs really quickly when I start running and then sits at approx 20 BPM over what should be an easy pace rate yet it still feels really easy. Anybody got any ideas?

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
