Day 1 of my zone 2 training. @mw is it normal to keep the same hr the entire time with a constant pace and incline (resistance)? I actually dialed it up a bit at the end because my hr was starting to drop.

1) stop using a watch to measure active HR. Get a polar H10 2) yes absolutely normal. If it was progressively increasing that wouldn’t be Z2. It SHOULD be steady state with parameters unchanged That’s a solid Z2 session 💯

I find the same thing when I’m doing steady state training, towards the end I have to dial it up to keep my HR steady. It’s like I’ve finally hit a groove way after my brain is done with the whole thing lol

Are you sure 125 bpm is your correct zone2? The pace seems too slow to me. More like a zone1. How did you tested your max HR?

If you're trying to build aerobic baseline then yep you want to keep your HR as steady as possible. Not sure if whatever you use to track it has heart rate zones but you want to avoid spiking it if you're Zone 2 training (best for baseline) Mix it up w/ laddered run days where you spike it on purpose ie. sprint / jog
