The problem with using heart rate based training zones is that you need to calibrate your heart rate (as measured by heart rate monitor) to your individual aerobic and anaerobic thresholds (as measured by blood lactate tests). There is a lot of variation in aerobic/anaerobic thresholds across individuals and over time. The relationship between heart rate and blood lactate is also modality specific, meaning the heart rate that corresponds to zone 2 when you’re running is different from when you’re cycling, swimming, rowing or skiing. Because of this it’s often as good or even better to just estimate training zones based on how you feel. Heart rate IS useful for tracking your fitness. If you keep track of your distance, average pace and average heart rate for runs you can track how your fitness improves over time (heart rate should decrease for the same distance and pace).

I would say, your smart watch estimated zones are good enough. Your heart rate will variate anyway in those zones, so as long as you are around those real zones, your heart rate will eventually be around the accurate zones for long enough. It's not 0s and 1s, it's more a spectrum... Don't have to make it too scientific, as long as you are not an elite athlete.

Insane! I love my Whoop and love to see hit zone 5 but never knew what it meant 😅😂 thank you so much for the educational video!

2 questions ) - How would i program these during the week alongside strength work, conditioning work and sports practice ?(i do jiu jitsu and wrestling, ill lift once a week, im currently trying to do some conditioning like sprints/jumps but its difficult with school/work and ill usually get my cardio from weekend soccer/football with friends) - and then how would i program/periodize these over the course of a season and off season? Would i just do mostly the higher intensity zone 4/5 with a little of zone 2/3 during off season, and then switch it to mostly 2/3 and less 4/5 during the season?

What do u think about alternatively using Heart Rate Reserve HRR to calculate training zones?

Sir can you make a video about power training. Like in the middle of the strength-velocity curve. Thanks in advance sir.

Thanks for the video, very clear!

Does it makes a difference when i calculate my zone 2 with 0,75?

How do the zones apply to different types of sprinting workouts?

Do you have any programs balencing Tendon/Max Strength Training and Speed Strength Training within the same period? Possibly within the same workout of lift lower body 2x a week? Ameture MMA and Military both have limited time making complex periodization difficult. As well as ability to lift in the week while balancing direct skill training and running. I would be interested in if you had any such programs or video content for generalist athletes. I found your channel as I am interested in developing tendon strength to prevent injury and speed strength to be more explosive. So would like to train both simultaneously.

Good information in general , but why don't you use the Karvonen formula for calculating the heartrate-zones? The zones should be calculated on the basis of Heart Rate Reserve (HRR) i.e. Max HR- Resting HR, not on the basis of the Max HR. The logic is that you can not get under your resting heart rate so that should be viewed as 0%

I do zone 4 for 50mnt its ok?

Last night I did a 10 mile run right in the middle of what would be Zone 4 for me. I was able to keep my heart rate at the same rate for the entire run. And I completed the run in 1 hour 40 minutes. Is it bad if I do this type of training once a week?

Mojo are you the Mojo I know

“Zone 4” or whatever one calls the zone above your capacity to effectively shuttle lactate (ie above lactate shuttle threshold) is NOT anaerobic. It’s still aerobic. Anaerobic should be Zone 5 - you can do very little at anaerobic level - like minutes.

@Ximme

Even zone 5 isn’t 100% anaerobic.

Yea I understand the zones . And numbers but not really into exercises kept talking going running riding a bike. Lots of ppl do cross fit gym programs hitt so it clean heart but doesn't get into any other exercises

I am running 12 minutes a mile and my heart beat is 165. For my age group that is 100% at zone 5. Something does not add up.

@davidlakes5087

9 күн бұрын

You are an individual. Ignore the age group. Determine what your personal max heart rate is: After you run a few minutes to get warm, then start to sprint and push yourself to the limit. Alternate between sprinting for maybe a minute and jogging for a minute. Do this repeatedly, and you should reach a higher heart rate with each interval. See how high you can push it. Eventually you will see that your heart rate isn’t going any higher no matter how hard you push yourself. Congratulations! That’s your MHR. Now, you can calculate all your zones correctly based on that.

So lets say i want to train for a long run but also a fast pace Here zone 2 or zone 4??

I think for someone very trained in cardio it’s more like 220 - age + 10, but for a non exercise person yeah 220 - age is pretty accurate, tho it makes me wonder as someone gets older their max heart rate drops, so what does that mean? They’ll never be as athletic? Or is the heart getting more efficient?

Anaeroboc?

Boxing Science works in the red zone with 20 seconds of work, 10 seconds of rest, 3 minutes, then rest for a minute, and repeat 4-5 sets.?/

Dividing heart rate zones into 10 % intervals seems really arbitrary, how are these zones derived?

Damn, I must have a heart condition or something. I've been running and exercising for years, my resting heart rate is consistently 80bpm and I regularly go for 1 hour runs at 170-180bpm the entire run. Am I putting to much strain on my heart? EDIT: as a teenager I could regularly get my HR over 200bpm UPDATE: Got a fitness watch. My resting HR is around 55 ish. When up and doing casual things it's 80. I just did a 5k in under 25m and my HR averaged 190bpm, maxing at 201bpm. I did push myself to my limit tho, as I am getting back into running after some months

At rest your heart rate should be able to go lower than 80 very often. Average of 80 is ok i guess. If you run for years and nothing random or special in your life you'd say that at some point you can run for one hour with lower bpm. Or youre running insanely fast

Definitely don’t use “fat as a fuel source” running. Once your body uses all the glycogen it’s consuming lean muscle before fat.

This is really easy to measure actually and we have good data on it. At low intensity (ex: zone 2) the split is ~60-70% of energy from carbs, ~30-40% from fat ~5% or less from protein. In a near carb depleted state (which is rare) the protein contribution can go up to ~10-15% but never really beyond that. And the overall intensity and calorie burn of exercise will be far lower in that state

My entire 30 minute elliptical sessions are in zone 5, and I am plenty capable of conversation during these sessions. Something doesn't add up. 🤔

You confused sprint intervals to VO2 max training. print intervals are good, but only to build mitochondria density cause your heart rate wont have the time to elevate at maximum during 10 or even 20 seconds. If you want to increase vo2 max which is the reason of zone 2 training, you need to spend as much time at your max or HR or as much to the max as possible. Is a very fast run that you ca probably hold for 4-5 minutes then rest for 4-5 and repeat. Time at vo2 max is the key.

@TumoRuns

7 ай бұрын

Tbh I disagree with a lot of this. Zone 2 doesn’t really stop at 70% of max HR either. Because HR and all of this is so individual, HR training methodologies (such as the maffetone method) are really limiting without understanding your individual HR zones/LT1&2/VO2 max, which you’ll only get from a lab test. My easy runs sit between 65% and 80% of my max HR; I’ve had this verified in the lab, to back up my RPE/watch HR zones. But this video doesn’t really account for any of this 🤷🏼‍♂️😂
