unfortunately there is a lot of rubish on the internet concerning training and the use of pulsation.
to me only one method is usefull, the zoladz method.
Please find the zones and a brief explanation:
- Zone 5 (Z5)= HFmax-10 Heavy
- Zone 4 (Z4)= HFmax-20 10 K pace
- Zone 3 (Z3)= HFmax-30 pace to last one hour
- Zone 2 (Z2)= HFmax-40 no conversation but still quite easy
- Zone 1 (Z1)= HFmax-50 you can talk easily
the use of these zones will help you become faster at a low pulsation rate.
if you want to find out more about training, its effects and tips, please click on the training page.
thanks,
