Zone 2 Training Reviewed – Bionicoldguy

In the newsletter “Science Science” Alex Hutchinson is a good article (which you can log in for collection here) At the cardiovascular training zone 2. I have discussed This is in the past and my favorite way to train is to spend most of the time in zone 2 and throw two shorter sessions with a higher intensity per week. In his book on longevity SurviveDr. Peter Attia recommends training zone 2 for healthy aging. This is based on work Dr. Imagine St. MilnOne of the big supporters of Zone 2 training, which claims to be optimal for the health of mitochondria Powerhouse in our muscle cells. So I was interested in seeing a scientific study that relates to Alex’s article: a group of people who perform the recommended amount of 150 minutes a week, a VS control group of sedentary people. The latter showed early signs of mitochondrial dysfunction, which, if left uncontrolled, can proceed to insulin resistance and finally type II diabetes. It is best to lean in the bud by exercising.

Of the interviews with various exercise scientists and coaches Alex, he found that you don’t have to be too accurate about the degree of exercise. Basically a good fast pace gets you to zone 2. Browsing is too easy while going hard enough to make your muscles burn is too hard.
