We continue to build but keeping a very similar routine which has worked til now. The Stair Climber pts have been tweaked slightly, but that doesn’t really make any difference from a training point of view. It’s still the best piece of machinery in the gym for us runners. Any problems let me know but keep up the great work Dan.

A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Find the level which means your heart rate is in zone 2. If you go other that, reduce the level. It’s that simple.

Zone 2: Easy

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

Hour run on the front and yes thanks leg feels alot stronger. Happy to up the training next week. ๐Ÿ˜Š
Ah fabulous, ok let’s go with one more week, and then we can look to start setting some goals again and create a new plan. I’ll message you about that next week. Well done Dan.

A good home workout for the legs. No weights needed, but if you do have some that will add to the difficulty. Recoveries around 30-60s. If time is limited then combined two exercises together. So whilst recovering from squats for example you could be doing your calf raises. This could save you as much as 15 mins.

Zone 2: Easy

A good way to boost cardio whilst reducing the risk of injury. The elliptical can tone muscles and improve endurance whilst being gentle on your joints. You might find you have to work quite hard to get your heart rate in Zone 2.

Try and keep it easy. It all depends on your current level. If slowly adding time to your long run the last 10-20 mins might be tough. Focus on good form.

80 mins with Nicks 2hr group ๐Ÿ‘
Loving the steady progression. Excellent work Dan and also great to be able to run with the group too.
