- Answering Zone 2 Training FAQs while exploring the mountain. In between me talking rubbish and falling over, we look at what to do if your Z2 pace feels too slow (and you have to walk), how to measure Z2 without a heart rate monitor, how many zone 2 running sessions to do each week, how to track progress, and more.

Any questions that I missed, let me know down here and I'll get back to you! Happy zone two-ing!
Any tips for a barbell athlete looking to incorporate zone 2 for cardiovascular health and better recovery between lifting sessions and intra workout while lifting?
Depends on a few things (current number of sessions, time available etc) but adding 1 Z2 session a week on an off day is a good place to start, potentially upping it to two if you feel the benefits and can make it work.
Intra workout - light rope flow, shadow boxing or fast and Lois drills work well provided they don’t interfere with your recovery!

thank you for your share of wisdom through your videos 💥🎉
I am 33 years old, I have finished my first marathon (4.5 hours) and planning on racing my first IM 70.3 this October.
since I would like to do a lot of Zone 2 trainings, I would like to ask you the following:
When I do the 220-age formula, my zone 2 is from 120-140 , but with the Karvonen formula my Zone 2 is from 135-150 (resting HR 58) since there is a SO BIG difference I dont know where to train.
Any help with that please ? 🎉
(Moreover I find it extremely boring to keep my HR Under 140 since my pace there is 10min/km ..meaning i could walk faster 🤣...and for a 10km long run I need 1.40 hours 🤣🍕)
New subscriber here. Amazing content. Best I've seen on practical implementation of zone 2 training. Thank you! 🙏🙏
Love this video and seeing you in your natural habitat :)
Cheers matey! 😁
Yo Luke, I just found your channel and 1. WOW. 2. How have i not found you already!
As a fellow runner, fellow youtuber - you bring these elements together so well and I love your style. I need to check out some more of your cogent as it seems you have plenty of value videos of great relevant content. I have just finished my 2nd Marathon training plan and already looking for new ways to train or ways to improve and this Z2 training looks to be a key part! Thanks for sharing mate and I am sure we chat more! Thanks for the FAQ!!! You have so much insights and free value!!
Hi mate, thanks for stopping by, and for the kind words! Great job with the marathon plan. Hope the Z2 content is useful to you for whatever challenge you have lined up next! 👊 Keep in touch :)
@@LukeJonesMOVE You are so welcome. You have so many videos which some I have already added to my watch later list! Appreciate it. Oh yea; you will be seeing me again! :) Cheers!
@@CLFurlong Cheers for the support man, have a great week!
You got me at when you start talking about BJJ. Blue belt here. I train 4 session of BJJ (3x nogi, 1 Gi), 2 session of kick boxing. I started to run recently and fell in love in it. I try to have 4 session of running during a week. (2-3 zone 2 training/week and 1 interval and other type of running ( parkrun or sprints). I balance my week with the zone 2 runs. If I feel weak I do only Zone 2 runs. But no matter what I do minimum 2 zone 2 runs and adapt my other 2 runs on how I feel or if want to challenge my self. How to balance your running and martial arts?
today I finally bought my Garmin chest strap and the first training with it was literally the first time I constantly had an accurate showing of hearrate. everybody says the watches are sometimes not accurate haha. If just someone had said they show bullshit most of the time (indoors/under trees/ when not warmed up) I would have bought it a year earlier. Feels like I wasted a whole year while trying to understand and work with the heartrate my watch showed. Argh.
Yep the straps are the way to go for accuracy ha. Wrist can give an indicator, but is worth checking in with your actual pulse rate and the good old talk test
Question. I overdid it two days ago and did most of my 3 hour training session in zones 4-5. (Running with a faster, more experienced friend.) I completely took off yesterday but my resting heart rate is still much higher than normal. Should I take another full day off to recover, or would I benefit more from a very slow active recovery walk/hike/jog? Thanks.
Hi Luke, you content is well arranged and very artistic. I have a small question. How did it took for you to cure De Quervain's Tenosynovitis?
Hi Randeep, thanks for the kind words! For me, it was around three to four months if I remember correctly of adequate rest and rehab work. I then slowly eased back into training. This was an old injury that had been flaring up for years, so may not have taken so long if I had been sensible in the first place!
Brilliant video. My question is simply how many weeks of 4 times per week mostly Zone 2 training should i expect to see a significant increase in Zone 2 pace eg 30 secs per mile? Roughly ?! 4 weeks ? 8 weeks ? 12 weeks ? Thanks !!
Thanks Peter! It really does depend on many different factors - e.g current pace, how long you've been training, capacity for recovery, general health status and more. All going well, you'll likely notice improvements after 2-3 months
@@LukeJonesMOVE OOps - got a 10K in 2.5 months! Better do some high intensity mixed in with the Zone 2!? Thanks v much!
6 weeks for me here, 6h-ish per week plus enough sleep and recovery. It is a series of step changes. I'm on week 7 and going to do a lazy week (maybe 3 hours max) then back to 6-ish hours per week.
Also I found that the Z2 is my sweet spot for jogging (very slow for me) but it's a pace I feel very comfortable and can last for 4+ hours. If I'm slower than that pace, I feel like I have the energy to speed up, and if I'm faster, I feel tired and slow down, without any tech, my body naturally gravitate towards it, it is amazing. When my watch is accurate it's usually within 2-3 beats to how I feel. Age 39 Male and 137-138 HR for me is my spot.
If I do CrossFit with a HIIT WOD and on the same day run 6 miles in zone 2 (12-13 minute miles), will my zone 2 benefit be cancelled out by my CrossFit?
Not necessarily, but depends on your recovery capacity and other factors. May be best to split them up if you can :)
