Summer training: cycling zone 2, intervals, roller skiing.

Segment 1: What is Base Endurance?

"Base endurance is the foundation of your cycling fitness. It's your body's ability to sustain long rides efficiently. Think of it as the engine that powers everything from your weekend rides to competitive races."
Segment 2: Understanding Zone 2 Training

Narrator:
"Zone 2 training is all about exercising at a low to moderate intensity, typically 60-70% of your maximum heart rate. This zone is perfect for building endurance without over-stressing your body. You'll feel like you can keep going for hours, and that's exactly the point!"

Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) = 220 - your age
Zone 2 = 60-70% of MHR
Segment 3: Benefits of Zone 2 Training

Narrator:
"Training in Zone 2 offers numerous benefits. It enhances fat metabolism, increases mitochondrial density, and improves overall cardiovascular efficiency. Plus, it helps build a strong aerobic base, which is crucial for longer, more intense rides."
Segment 4: Introducing Interval Training

Narrator:
"Now, let's talk intervals. Interval training involves alternating between high-intensity efforts and rest or low-intensity periods. This method boosts your anaerobic capacity, speed, and power."

Nice music at 2:24! 😅 You produce top-quality videos, with music, data displays (now including watts), and commentary.

Thanks mate!

Do you think tube or tubeless is more reliable on the roads for you? Thank you for posting. Your training sessions are brutal but inspiring. 🏅

i haven't tried tubeless tires, but many fellow cyclist says they are better. But when we did longer ride with ten people there was 2 failures with tubes and 2 with tubeless so it was draw. I have consired to try those tubeless.
