Part 8/10:
Zone 2 Training: This involves sustained moderate exercise, such as brisk walking or cycling, where one can converse but feels an increased heart rate. Aiming for about three hours of Zone 2 training each week sets a strong health foundation.
VO2 Max Training: This is high-intensity exercise targeting peak aerobic capacity, essential for long-term health. Engaging in interval training—short bursts of intensive movement followed by recovery—is beneficial but requires less volume than Zone 2 training.
