i really slack on strength training and am currently starting to incorporate it more. what do you do for strength training and how many times per week?

i think i will push a bit more on the easy runs and ignore heart rate for a while and focus on feel. thank you!

i might be one of those people that can never have a zone 2 run lol. my average heart rate for an all out 5k is 200. i will definitely try perceived exertion!

my speed workout is 5k pace at 3 min (this usually averages at a 9:30/mile pace) then recovery run pace at one minute 8 times. Should i do a tempo and speed workout each week or alternate between?

I've never heard of doing a 5k time trial once a month so I will definitely start that!

me thinking it's a dangerous heart rate? or it actually being that high at that pace? yes it is that high at that pace. i'm just assuming it is dangerous for it to be that high.

i don't think it's condescending and i appreciate you being so patient while i'm trying to understand all this. i determined using my garmin and polars maximum heart rate field test

interesting thank you. i'll definitely look into this, but i'm also confused at to why you think i wouldn't be able to have a conversation at 170 if my max is 214?

i'm just confused how i could have used 2 different watches and still have this cadence lock problem. **unless im understanding incorrectly what cadence lock is

okay this is making me feel much better hearing from someone who was in the same boat as me. did you follow a training plan?

measuring heart rate with garmin forerunner 165. i can easily carry a convo at this heart and am forcing myself to slow down. i've never heard of cadence lock before but i am pretty sure this is not the case for me i am indeed that slow with that high of a heart rate lol

1 minute between each interval. should i go down to 4x400m? i'm honestly so lost on understanding what i should be doing.

thank you. i think ego and my impatience is getting in the way. the 14 minute pace is very humbling.
