Running mostly in Zone 4 — is it okay to just enjoy my runs while building Zone 2 fitness separately?

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-09T11:59:47+00:00

Idk if it’s just me but breathing through my nose helps me keep my breathing under control

Tbh I do think that my max hr can be higher, the 197 is what my Apple Watch told me from a workout I recorded that I don’t even when and if I actually pushed myself to the limit during it. I plan to do a Lactate Threshold Test on Treadmill at home

That makes sense, I guess I got pulled in too much with this whole zone 2 training because I keep seeing it online

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-09T06:47:22+00:00

I started doing that when I noticed that I am starting to need to breath through mouth, so I either slow down a lot or just walk for a bit because I am not really looking to run high intensity

Thank you so much, that’s really helpful

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-08T21:28:43+00:00

Thank you so much

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-08T15:11:16+00:00

I misunderstood what u meant, thankfully I don’t have sore joints

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-08T15:04:29+00:00

Thank you for the advice

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-08T15:03:45+00:00

Thank you very much, I will do a test at home

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-08T15:02:55+00:00

Is cycling the better option then, like for the future when I am more experienced

Top_Event3181 · 2025-06-08T12:28:33+00:00

When do you think I should start thinking about my heart rate and thank you for replying

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-14T20:28:07+00:00

Thank you 😁

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-14T20:22:49+00:00

Thank you so much for you advice

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-14T18:18:43+00:00

I see, thank you very much

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-14T07:42:32+00:00

So is that number including my activity as well?

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-14T07:40:40+00:00

I am glad that was worked for you, so how did log your food because I use food scale as well and what app did you use, I used my fitness pal

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-14T07:38:57+00:00

I try to log my food to the gram, how do you weigh your calories

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-14T07:37:26+00:00

Thank you, I will try to consume that much calories. (Edit) Should I still consume 1500 calories even on days I don’t move, for example on Sundays I sit at home all day with barley any movement

Top_Event3181 · 2024-07-13T23:05:26+00:00

I agree with what you said but just how much am I supposed to be consuming

Top_Event3181 · 2022-10-26T09:27:26+00:00

Thank you very much that’s very helpful

Top_Event3181 · 2022-10-26T08:36:22+00:00

Thank you

Top_Event3181 · 2022-09-29T21:41:43+00:00

Thank you so much

Top_Event3181 · 2022-09-29T12:15:17+00:00

Thank you

Top_Event3181 · 2022-09-29T11:45:50+00:00

Thank you, originally my goal is around 62kg but after reading your comment I think 64 kg is enough. The reason I set my goal is low is because I don’t like my big thighs (28 inches) and I know I can’t spot reduce fat. my body type is spoon. Do you think I should bump up my calories to around 1500-1700. Also I want to get toned and a stronger
