I like your zone example
I do most of my training in zone 1, but it's the training I do in
zone 4 and 5 that makes the difference.
"An example would be a 5 x 100 test set on 4:00 (we did just that set this morning)"
hey chris how did it go?
ande
Zone 1: warmup, easy recovery
Zone 2: long pace work (eg 1st half of a 10k race), well below lactate threshold.
Zone 3: at or near lactate threshold (maybe a little above, maybe a little below)
Zone 4: well above lactate threshold, very very close to race pace. An example would be a 5 x 100 test set on 4:00 (we did just that set this morning)
Zone 5: all out sprints
