- Why is Zone 2 cardio so great? (38:00)
- Zone 1 is fine to start with if you’ve led a sedentary lifestyle.
- Zone 2 is optimal for many reasons and falls in the range of 70% through 79% of your aerobic capacity.
- There are many biological benefits to staying in this range, including mitochondrial health and blood health.
- Zone 2 can be used alongside VO2 Max training, especially if you are training for an event.
- VO2 max is defined as the maximum rate at which your body can use oxygen during exercise. (49:00)
- If you are starting from a sedentary lifestyle, do not jump into this type of training without a consultation from your doctor.
- Zones 3, 4, and 5 are more difficult and not meant for long intervals. (52:00)
- HIIT training is not meant to be done every day.
- Vinnie explains what a “quad” is and how he does it. (55:00)
- If you’re using a device like a Fitbit or Garmin (or similar), what should you look for in your numbers?
- So that you know, those devices aren’t always super accurate. They can help, however.
- If you are near a hospital and can have a stress test done, do it.
- Do not do VO2 max training without knowing your range, as determined by the stress test.
- If you’re using a device like a Fitbit or Garmin (or similar), what should you look for in your numbers?
