The Importance of Heart Rate in Training

Ask anyone involved in endurance sports what the most important attribute in a coach is, and you will have a different answer every time. Is it the ability to coach with conviction? Is it incorporating your experience into your coaching? Is it motivating your athletes to simply adhere to their training plan? According to Coach Ben Day, it's a mix of all of these and more.

Day has worked professionally in cycling since 2002 and began coaching full-time in 2014 after retiring as an athlete.
