Summary

In this conversation, the hosts discuss how to properly adjust zone two training and explore the use of heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring devices. They also provide insights into the Norwegian method of training, which involves more low-intensity zone two training. The hosts emphasize the importance of balancing volume and intensity in training and suggest conducting a study on different zones of zone two training. They also discuss the psychological aspects of endurance training and the correlation between delayed gratification and success. The conversation covers various topics related to psychological aspects of training and the use of metrics in training. The hosts discuss the idea of manipulating feedback to see how it affects performance, the use of power meters and heart rate monitors in interval workouts, and the importance of listening to your body and using RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) as a training tool. They also touch on the potential drawbacks of relying too heavily on data and the benefits of training without metrics.

Takeaways

• Adjusting zone two training can be done using heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring devices like Morpheus.
• The Norwegian method of training involves more low-intensity zone two training.
• Balancing volume and intensity is crucial for effective training.
• Conducting a study on different zones of zone two training can fill a gap in the literature.
• Psychological aspects, such as self-control and delayed gratification, play a role in endurance training success. Manipulating feedback can be an interesting experiment to see how it affects performance.
• Using power meters and heart rate monitors can be helpful in interval workouts, but RPE is also a valuable training tool.
• Don't let the metrics overwhelm you and prevent you from training. Trust your body and listen to how you're feeling.
• Training without metrics can be a liberating and enjoyable experience.
• Relying too heavily on data can be a crutch and may prevent you from fully tuning in to your body's signals.
