Ha! Well we'll never know eh?!

Thanks Hellen.

Tell you what though - they really do help recovery, I've had them on all day and my legs, although tired, have recovered pretty well!

Do your socks feel tight mr lion? Mine dont, I am wondering if they should, I am size 6 so I got size 6-7.5 but am wondering if I would get more compression for my money by getting the smaller size?

Yes, black - check my photos!

They are not tight as such, more like a tubigrip-type feel. I am size 9.5 and have 8-9.5 size, so yes maybe you should try the smaller ones, and send 'em back if they're too small!

Hello HR peeps :)

Skiing was exhausting, hellen!!!

3 hours on the slopes then being 'Yickered' to death by 4 tweenagers is MUCH harder work that 7 hours skiing followed by a nice little run up the hill in the snow with V'rap (and having peace and quiet inbetween!!!)

Enjoyed it though!!!

Might do some training gain at some point!!! :)

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
