Hello, there is a slight glitch on the formulas. To calculate the zones you’ll need to add back the RHR after doing the percentage. As it is explained at the moment may be very misleading.

Very clear and helpful. I’ve been monitoring heart rate for a long time but only recently started taking the zones seriously as a way of avoiding overtraining. I think it’s worth mentioning that I have consistently found that when I am very fit it is much harder ( almost impossible) to get my heart up to the same maximum as it reaches when I am unfit. I believe this is not uncommon. I spoke to an expert who said this comes down to two factors: as you get fitter you can increase your stroke volume so you provide more oxygen to the muscles at the same heart rate, and then the oxygen supplied by your heart is no longer the limiting factor so you reach a point where your muscles are using oxygen as fast as they can before you reach your theoretical heart rate max.

I bought my first Garmin about 4 months ago and have been somewhat frustrated that my watch would tell me I was overreaching, and my HR would be 95% in zone 5 seemingly regardless of my pace. After watching this video I checked my watch and it was set to % max HR, with a default max HR of 162. I changed it to HRR, and set my actual max HR to 190, and my resting HR to 57. Now when I go on a long run, my heart rate is mostly in Zones 3 and 4, which is what I'd expect. So...thank you!

Your true hr max is probably higher then the 220-age estimate, 15% of ppl have more then 10 beats higher. You can very well have 210 max, for example. If you are using hr RESERVE, aerobic zone is 60-70%, anything 80%+ is hard unsustainable effort for most people. Best is to get it measured, like they correctly say in the video. Without measuring, best you can do is to judge by ability to speak. Easy speaking, sentences = aerobic or lower. Several words = threshold. 1-2 words = max effort.

Great presentation of this material! I use a combination of HR, power (foot pod), and RPE to manage my training. For HR zones I find that using the lactate threshold heart rate is more practically accurate - it is certainly more relevant for establishing training intensities. There are several good ways to establish this and none of them are as painful as a proper max HR test. I have found that Garmin’s LT test is pretty good (aligns well with other tests) and there is a built-in option to use the lactate threshold HR (LTHR) to establish zones. The most important zones for training are Zones 1 & 2 and Zone 4. Spending 80-90% of training time in Z1/2 and 10% in Z4 is good for long-term development.

Just wanted to share this. I used a chest strap monitor from Polar and i found it was very "spiked" at some point, over 220 bpm. So the advice Polar gave me was simply to spin the strap so the sensor will sit on my back. It worked perfectly. The spikes (due to static) were gone and it picked up my HR just fine. I am sure they have sorted all this out by now. But should someone still get this problem try and move the sensor to you back.

Not sure that you made clear that you need to add RHR to %HRR to get training zones. Another point is that often your heart rate will spike at the start of a run if you haven't warmed up properly - basically your heart is working overtime to open up all the capillaries that it had shut down when not needed (and you won't be feeling out of breath).

Thanks, useful to confirm my understanding. I’ve been using HR zones for a while now, or at least been paying attention to them. I have my zones set up correctly using resting and maximum (not lab tested). I have found over the last few weeks that my HR has been much higher than it was previously for similar types of runs and training sessions and that has been a point of concern. I did get a bit obsessed with running almost daily due to lockdown frustration! After doing a bit of research prior to seeing this I concluded that I have either been doing too much, am stressed (work is a source of this!) or that I have been neglecting training my aerobic system. Reluctantly I have backed off and am now doing about 20m a week instead of 35+ and have tried to incorporate disciplined easy (Z2) runs to work more on the aerobic side. After today’s momo session I note HR is still getting higher than it used to for the same sort of pace. Given that my perceived effort feels hard too I believe the chest HR monitor is okay so I guess I still need to recover further. I say all of this in case there is anyone else out there who has had or is having a similar experience.

Hey Matt- HR can be a minefield! It's because you can use everything from 3 to 7 zones and this can depend on whether you are measuring HR Max, HR Reserve (as in this video) or Lactate Threshold. Lactate threshold is the most accurate and you can look up a test to measure this if you like, other just follow this: Ensure your Max HR is accurate. Easy effort occurs below the Ventilatory Threshold, which is around 77% of your HR Max. Aim for 65-77% of HR Max. Moderate effort occurs between 85-91% of HR Max. This will be your half marathon to Threshold runs. High effort occurs above 91% of HR Max. This will be your 10K pace and above. Use HR as a guide, along with feel and pace to accurately know how hard you are working. I hope that helps?

Is it fair to say that this zone 2 advise is more to ensure that you don’t see yourself getting towards that 77% that you mention? Lately I’ve been trying to pay more and more attention to HR and get very tetchy the second that my HR goes 1 or 2 BPM above my zone 2 upper limit.

I agree with Sanjay. The only thing I would like to emphasize here, is that both garmin and polar and Sanjay are using hr max. If you are using just the general formula 220-age, it is for middle age people and even there 30% ! have real hrmax different by 10 beats or more. For 60 it is wrong completely. P.S. forget about this video, they are mixing stuff together. Also other people mix zones based on hrr and hrmax together, first calculate with one system, the take description from second system. Reality is, there are 2 thresholds (lactate/ventilatory), vt1 at roughly 80% hrmax, vt1 at roughly 90% max. Below vt1 it is aerobic sustained, between it is race pace, above is anaerobic high effort. There is no point to be more precise, because the hrmax is estimate, everybody has also different % for the thresholds, it depends on sport, temperature, fatigue. Until you know from measurement, 80% and 90% are just fine. Long easy runs ≠ below 80% hrmax

@@sjonit1 Thanks! Watched a few weeks ago a similar video from GTN and they talked about the same: HR zones based on Threshold. And suddenly Zone 2 is 145-150 for me. If I check HRR I get even 146-159. Either way, the new numbers are much more on spot, but still confusing with the different ways of calculating your zones.

Been watching some videos about this and, it surprised me to see lots of people say Zone 2 is optimal and what you should be doing most of your running at. Maybe it's just me, but I barely even touch Zone 2. I mix up the regular running exercises: long run, recovery(slow) run, tempo and speed sessions. Usually it's around 50-50 Zone 3-4, a bit of Zone 5 in speed and tempo runs.

I have the same "problem". For me, it is almost impossible to run constantly in Zone 2 in easy runs simply because I live in a location where flat surface probably doesnt exist :) wherever i run, its either uphill or downhill. And when going up the hill, absolutely no chance in keeping HR in Zone 2, no matter what pace i would go for. It is frustrating on one side, but on the other side - it then feels so nice to run some race on a flat course. And hills are of course great for strength training, so there are some benefits as well :)

Sometimes to keep in zone 2 you have to walk or jog very slowly. It's frustrating but if you want to train with heart rate zones then it is necessary.

Can you do a video about how to come back to running after injuries? I love to run but I injured my hamstring over 2 years ago now and every time I seem to be getting back into it my hamstring starts to hurt again. It has been very frustrating and I’m tempted to give up and say my body just isn’t meant for running. For some context I am 18.

Amazing thank you, keep up the great work. For another video I think you should all pick a different event to enter this year then video your training for the event and see who’s event actually takes place however the twist is you don’t pick the event each member of the team picks for the other so they can really put them out of their comfort zone to try something different.

I worked out my MAF HR zone, bought a HR strap and just ran according to it, not bothering to re-set my Garmin zones up. Then I did an all out 5km and at the end my Garmin asked if I wanted to reset my HR zones, I said yes and it did. They are now within two beats of what my paper calculated MAF zones! Go Garmin!! It's nice to have my coloured zone bars reflect my training.

Great explanation! I'm having trouble training and keeping my zone training consistent. If I do an "easy" run I literally have to walk. I ran 7 miles fairly easy even though my heart rate was maintained in zone 4 (avg 143 bpm). I live in Colorado(around 5000' elevation), 210lbs, and fairly healthy, this is for training to run a marathon. Started training at the beginning of December 2021. Any advice? To me zone 4 is my "easy" run. I also use the stationary bike to keep a heart raze zone of 3 just so I can get that training in for that zone.

Hi Oscar. Is it because you're using default Garmin settings perhaps? It might be worth actually setting your own individual zones to see if that makes a difference. Otherwise, if you believe you have an issue with your heart, you should speak to a medical professional.

I was having a similar issue. If you're using a Garmin watch, check your heart rate settings as per the video. If it's set to %HR max, then the default max HR could be much lower than your actual. Adding your actual max HR and your resting HR will recalibrate your HR zones.

This has come at a very opportune time for me. I am 58 but my heartrate can go as hight as 178 if I push it and my resting heart rate is 46. That's quite a range really and I was worrying about my max given that 220 - age gives me a max of 162 which I can hit or even exceed (167 today) on an easy run whilst going slightly uphill. I might do a stress test to get a clearer figure for max now. Thank you. On a separate note: on January 22nd 2020 I started C25K for the fourth time. This time I got through and on January 22nd 2021 I ran 15k. 27 years ago I could run a marathon but life and injuries have intervened to my detriment. Now I am thinking of another marathon. Oh, and I am registered blind which makes it more "interesting" trying to train when I have to train alone. The Running Channel has helped me through the last 12 months mostly although I have been a bit peeved at some of your "silly" non-quite-running content. In the main it's been great though so thanks very much indeed.
