    Zone 2 or low heart rate training has been shown to improve your running as well as offer a host of benefits such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health.
    In this video I share my experience over the 60 days, the pros, the cons and wether you could benefit from implementing zone 2 training.

    Hey, that resting heart rate of yours is something else! Been doing this Zone 2-based training for a solid 3 months now, and it’s actually helped me get a lot fitter. And the device you are using... I bought this device a year ago cuz my intense workouts made me dizzy. My cardiologist friend suggested a heart rate monitor, saying I might be pushing too hard and need to watch for afib. Since then, Frontier X2 has been my workout buddy. It keeps tabs on my training load and heart strain, giving me realtime feedback I didn't know I needed along with the zone I am exercising in... its monitoring gives me peace of mind, knowing I’m taking care of my heart while chasing fitness goals.

    Just a comment regarding zone 2. 60-70% max heart rate is usually too low for most people. You can try the heart rate reserve (Karvonen formula) which works much better for most. As for the talk test, in your video with 147 bpm, it seems you already had to break off your sentences very short in order to breath, that is already beyond ‘talking comfortably’. So when you say you are talking to your friend on runs at 157, you are likely talking in a few words or broken sentences, that isn’t zone 2 in terms of talking test. You should be able to speak in long sentences (albeit it gets uncomfortable but not impossible).

    Hey, that was really helpful! Zone 2 training sounds like just what I need to keep my heart in shape. and the device you are using I got it few months back; had a minor heart stroke a few years ago and wanted to stay healthy for my kids. so spoke to my cousin and she suggested it. Glad I listened. It's been great for keeping tabs on my heart health and adjusting my workouts.

    It's interesting you rank this along with mobility training. I've been an on-and-off runner for a long time and I've been looking into both zone 2 training and improving flexibility lately myself. It was disheartening to learn they're kind of at odds with one another... a degree of the tightness caused by running is actually good for your running performance because it means a tighter elasticity of your muscles and tendons and better recoil with each stride (obviously you don't want to be so tight as lead to injury)

    43 resting HR is insane, I am training to get it under 50/60, personally I wouldnt rely on hubermann to much though and get info from a variety of sources, while i think attia is more reliable and knowledgeble on the topic I would still take everything with a grain of salt, look into the oura ring legal battle hes going through

    • @PeteOnPurpose
      @PeteOnPurpose  Před 4 měsíci

      I’ve not heard about Attila’s legal battle I will have to check it out.
      I definitely take most things I hear these days with a grain of salt. That’s why I like doing these experiments so I can make up my own mind.
      My resting heart rate has always been pretty low, so has my dad’s so I’m not sure if it’s genetic?

    Cool. I walk around 6 miles a day with the dogs, and run 2-3 times per week. My runs are zones 4-5 😅
    Is there any recommendation as to the minimum time in zone 2? Thinking I could do a dog walk zone 2 instead of walking, but it would be 20 mins, essentially half the usual dog walk time. Thoughts? 😊

    • @PeteOnPurpose
      @PeteOnPurpose  Před 3 měsíci

      Hey Anni, the information on zone 2 was pretty confusing as people seem to say different things. However at the end of the day I would say some is better than none, plus think of all the things you can do with that extra time.😊

    In simple terms, do plenty of exercise and push yourself more then just going for a walk.

    Zone 2 easy runs are essential for marathon training

  • @OmegaR4y
    @OmegaR4y Před 3 měsíci +1

    Zone 2 was a pace of 3:54 and Zone 3 4:50? Should be the other way round. I just the problem, that you should do a warm up of 1km to get your heart up a little bit up and then aim for the zones

    • @PeteOnPurpose
      @PeteOnPurpose  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I was running in circles out side a rugby pitch when I was filming that section and kept stopping to check the footage etc so the pace would be all over the place as I wasn't on a real run.
      The perils of being a one man band. :P

      @PeteOnPurpose what pace did you get to?
      For me, my zone 2 walking speed is ~8.5kmph(~7:00/k) but my walking pace is ony around 8.8kmph. So I'm curious if it might be a case of technique limiting your pace and heart rate? Or if you should contact Declan Tingay to start training for the Olympics to take advantage of an insane walking form and cardiovascular efficiency
