If you don't have a physically active job or aren't able to spend lots
of time on your feet during the day, this intensity is important for training the body to use fat as a fuel, especially for individuals who compete in events lasting more than two hours.Although it will be difficult to keep your intensity low on these days, if you've decided that you have lots
of time on your hands and the type
of training you want to do is primarily
aerobic (vs.
interval based training), then performing your endurance efforts at a higher intensity than Zone 2 will reduce the effectiveness
of your harder workouts on subsequent days by fatiguing muscle and depleting carbohydrate stores in fast - twitch muscle.
In Zone 5, lactic acid builds up quickly, so this intensity can not be sustained for long periods, but is useful for sustained surges
of up to around 5 minutes, as there is still some contribution from
aerobic energy systems.Because muscle and joint impact and lactic acid levels become extremely high in this zone, this type
of training requires longer recovery periods between both workouts and
intervals, especially in beginner athletes.
