Nice
what do you think of LISS training, mr. runner guy?
I think itās probably great for people. Even when I ran cross-country in high school, we were supposed to get at least one longer run where we kept our heart rate low. I try to do at least one of those workouts a week that is longer with a zone 2/zone 3 heart rate. But I still find a lot of value in interval, workouts and also just enjoy them.
Basically, Iām always trying to challenge my body in different ways. Once I get comfortable doing a workout, I try to ship it to something different. (Although, in all honesty, one interval, work out a week is kind of a mainstay for me.)
right on. this is probably the right thing to do as well, tho i have seen some stuff in the past few years that shows mixing up workouts like that actually doesnāt have too much effect long-term. thatās for hypertrophy training tho, not sure it applies to cardio, as intuitively, it makes sense.
iāve just started back up with some cardio training myself and iāve been doing LISS training on the stationary bike each morning before work. i can definitely tell the difference on days where i donāt vs. days where i do. more energy, more focus. and it lasts longer into the day too, i especially notice the difference when i left in the evenings.
Yeah, I think thatās right about hypertrophy training. Iāve plateaued in some strength areas and just donāt have the equipment (mainly bigger weights) to push it further.
And yeah, Iām definitely better emotionally and mentally on days that I workout. But I think one has to get to a certain level of fitness to feel that. Like, if the pain or tiredness from working out outweighs those benefits then you just think there arenāt any benefits or you donāt notice them. In my experience about a month of regular exercise is enough to get in that kind of shape. But itās obviously different for everybody.
Good morningāš
Letās get it king
