Training zones are a useful tool for prescribing training and intensity. When coaches build workouts and plans, training zones make prescription and analysis of training simple and effective. However, many athletes are unsure of what each training zone means, how it should feel, and what it's trying to achieve. Will and Matt talk through the science behind zone training, what each zone represents physiologically and their purposes within a training plan.
Also in the show, Will talks through his new addiction to Zwift and Matt admits to being a superficial strava rider.
