Maximise your running potential  OUR RUNNING COACH'S ZONE 2 TIPS |
|
|
Dex Moore (@coachdex_757) coaches VivoHealth’s Running Fundamentals Course, and has spent years training runners. Here are his top tips for safe, effective aerobic running. |
|
|
| To build endurance – and, counterintuitively, to unlock extra performance in your speed work – 80% of your running training should be in Zone 2. |
|
|
Instead of getting pumped up with tunes, Zone 2 running is most effective with a relaxed mindset. Being able to maintain nasal breathing or hold a conversation are good indicators that you are running with the right effort. |
| |
|
| It’s easier to focus on your form when you’re not huffing and puffing! So use your slow runs to intentionally hold an upright posture, keep your weight forward and relax your shoulders. |
|
|
Aerobic running may be easier on your cardiovascular system, but it still asks a lot of your muscles and joints. Don't overdo it, and always listen to your body. |
| |
|
PERFECT VIVOS FOR ZONE 2 RUNNING |
|
|
Our coaches recommend the thin, light, flexible Primus Lite III for barefoot running and running training. Remember to walk before you can run, and build distance gradually. |
