Finding your AEROBIC training zone.
This is the zone where you should do a bulk of your training.
The usual formula is the following……..
Check out the following website for detail on the history and calculation of the AEROBIC Training Zone
http://www.philmaffetone.com/180formula.cfm
180 minus your current age (Example 180-45=135)
Athlete has been training for 2 yrs, no injuries, no sick often, performance has been increasing. Add 5
135+5=140
140 is the top of the training zone and 130 is the lower part of the zone.
YES this is SLOW, but TRUST ME……Spend some time doing your runs and bikes at this level and see how your TRAINING and RACING Improves.
Let me know how it works for YOU!
HAPPY TRAINING
