Episode notes
Strain Coach and Zone 2
- WHOOP’s strain coach provides personalized strain recommendations based on your recovery and strain history.
- It's okay if you don't always reach the target, especially when prioritizing Zone 2 training.
Polarized Training for Half Marathons
- For half-marathon training, adopt a polarized training model.
- Dedicate 70-75% of your training to Zone 2, 15-20% to high-intensity, and 5-10% to threshold training.
Heart Rate Zone Variations
- Heart rate zones vary individually, but issues with zone calculations might stem from an incorrect max heart rate in WHOOP.
- Check your all-time highest heart rate in the app and ensure proper band placement.
