Hello,
I try to train more in Zone 2 according to inigo San Millan principles.
I train 45-75 minutes in Z2 guided by a mix of talk test, lactate, power and HR.
Training Effect is always aerobic high and tempo.
Does it yield smae results for you guys ?
Thanks
Your average HR is too high for your MaxHR.
Try keeping it below 70% to 75% of your MaxHR or below 135 to 144 BPM.
Thats your problem then I think, try to keep to 70-75% of maxHR if you want a base run, dont pay any attention to zones. Firstbeat only care about MaxHR and the proportion of the time you spend below it…
That also happened to me. Ran 1 and a half hour, at ZONE 2, barely touched ZONE 3 (running uphill) and still getting tempo.
Isnt tempo run considred like a run with 80-95 % max HR ?
I have set MAX HR 193 and HR method to % of HRR.
What am i doing wrong ? It is kind a frustrating...

You want a nice low average HR like this (70-75% for me) try to avoid spiking HR when going up hills.
