This isnt zone 2 training though. Dr. Peter attia makes it very clear that interval sprints / HIIT doesnt work your zone 2 system. What youre doing still improved vo2 max though

@bkuyk9317 Ай бұрын

I was thinking the same thing; however, the end goal is all that matters as far as improving his VO2 max

Your jumps have always been amazing to me. I hate cardio too. You have no reason to be nervous, you're good and always have been. We are all our own worst critic, never doubt yourself.🙏

That is, not zone 2. Zone 2, you should be able to have a conversation, but it's a little uncomfortable to talk. Walking fast or a slow jog, is zone 2. Your doing a hiit workout.

Great video! I've lost 40lbs and with another 10 will have my abs back since teen years! 6'4" and weigh 230lbs today. I find it far easier to lose weight switching from splits of chest/shoulders and legs/back to working out every day chest, then shoulder/triceps, then back then legs. I also walk dog twice a day and often with 45lb ruck sack. Eating more fish and shrimp makes losing weight so much easier as well. Sauna after training reduces muscle soreness.

Not zone 2 at all. Average heart rate is not the same as steady state in zone 2. Still has benefit but not zone 2.

@HaithamSweity 20 күн бұрын

Hey man I enjoyed your video but there are some major misconceptions in it. 1- There are many definitions for zone 2, but it's basically when you start burning more carbs than fat -> that is the point when you exit zone2. Based on the first VO2max test you did, your zone 2 actually ended @115 heart rate! (VT1) you basically had no zone 2 and your body was not adapted to use fat so you had a very narrow zone 2 Range. Notice how this improved in the second test and your new VT1 is now 132 heart rater! Which is what we would expect for your zone 2 (usually around 70/75% of my max HR). So congrats on improving you fat usage and your VO2max. 2- Some of what you did was zone 2 -> Example the steep incline on the treadmill or the fast walk but the rest was interval training! Just because you average HR was around zone 2, doesn't make it zone 2 training. Don't get me wrong, interval training is great! And as you can see, very effective at increasing VO2max. The problem with it is that its intense on the body, and you cannot do it too often without running into problems with recovery and injury. Zone 2 training means staying in the Z2 range for more than half an hour.

Zone2 is easy. Stuff on video is high intensity. Overall it takes months to improve cardiovascular performance. But running performance and economy improves immediately when one starts running more and squatting less.

Is an average zone 2 workout the same as a true zone 2 workout? Seems like it’s just HITT.

@thacdk Ай бұрын

No it isn't . And I agree with you it seems like HITT 👍

@dougcraigmile1146 Ай бұрын

Not in the sense that any of the experts prescribe it. My understanding is that your body can’t switch from anaerobic back to aerobic very quickly so once you cross that line you’re not in zone 2. Also, training VO2max is not optimal in zone 2.

So much bro science in this video 😂 zone 2 training isn’t average zone 2 you have to stay in zone 2 not up and down averaging zone 2. Also it doesn’t make you any leaner than any other training. The only things that makes you lose fat is being in a calorie deficit.

Do you know, Tony? When anyone starts a new training routine specially with cardio got kind of start awful lazy you should take a week. We can have to start warming up meaning small intermittent running and then build into it. Those calves are gonna take a pounding and not just the calves the Shins. But this is good for people looking to get in better shape for their cardiovascular system.
