Introduction

Have you ever been puzzled by the intricacies of zone two training? Wondered how it could elevate your cycling performance? Coach Adam Pulford is back and ready to answer listener questions on Zone 2 training.

Questions Covered In This Episode:

• Question 1: Can you just train in Zone 1 and Zone 2 and then go race? 
• Question 2: If I've done most of my training the past two years in Zones 1 and 2, what am I missing? 
• Question 3: Should I ride at the bottom or top of Zone 2 power output?
• Question 4: Should I ride long Zone 2 rides fasted or with low carbohydrate availability?
• Question 5: What happens if I go into Zone 3 or 4 during my Zone 2 rides? Does it negate the benefits?
