Zone training for Runners | Is Threshold running the best?

This is absolute class advice and knowledge Steve. Best running YouTube content by a long way. Many thanks.

I am an 69 old runner which was stuck around 5.50 min. per km now after doing your home gym drills for about a month, I am running 5.10 min per km, it works, we need to put the work and be patient, I really like your videos, keep up the good work

Great content Stephen. No bullshit, just giving us pure running knowledge from your professional experience. Hands down best running content creator. Thanks!

Great explanation of the time zones and efforts. And so timely as I received my VO2Max results today (tested yesterday) with different time zones with aerobic and anaerobic thresholds. What I learned is that my watch was off on my zones by up to 9 bpm. I wish I'd done the test 3 years ago.

For majority of amateur runners Zone 1 is a fast... walk. Not running.

This is very scientific way - think in minutes. Stress doesn’t know miles or kilometers. Stress knows time only. Absolutely great video!

As an old slow fella I think it's always worth thinking in terms of total time for these sorts of sessions. Your 10x1k Threshold is 31 minutes roughly, which is 7x1k for me. 10x1k is going to break me down.

I love your videos Stephen, started running two weeks ago and binging your content has given me all the knowledge I needed to get started correctly 🙏

I've watched copious amounts of running videos, and this is absolutely one of the most efficiently informative and useful on YouTube. Great video.

I love your channel Stephen. Really informative and motivational. I follow quite a few running youtube channels and just found yours recently and it's jumped up to the top of my list. Subscribed

This video really helped lock in my plan for this season. Thanks for taking the time to record it!

Great video as always. Been training for a marathon and focusing a lot on working on different zones :) Cheers

So informative thank you. Am going to check out your training plans. I’ve been a road and MTB cyclist for 20 years with a focus on ultra endurance. I’ve recently got into running and absolutely love it. My issue has been because I’ve got such a big cardio base I’ve given myself the odd injury. I’ve learnt the hard way fast to manage incremental distance increases to avoid same. As someone mentioned here in another comment, my hardest challenge is actually sticking in zone one. Learning this is my main focus right now

Thank you for this explanation. A true eye opener for people starting out.

Another fantastic video. I Always see your videos and think I know about that, watch it anyway and learn loads. Such great insight and awareness of what the average runner doesn’t know.

Absolute GOLD. Best content on Running Youtube for those interested in actually learning and improving. Thank you Steven for sharing. Coming from the MAF cult this is a breath of fresh air.

Hi Stephen. Just started the running master class. Really awesome content. Learning so much already. Thank you for sharing your life experiences with us. 🙌

Thank you for content like this. I hyper analyze myself all the time with my running. These videos help me maintain sanity!

Thank you for always reminding us that we should be proud for running.

Great discussion. Learned a lot from it. Thanks!
