Does Zone 2 matter if your main goal is getting stronger? Yes.
For lifters, Zone 2 matters because it builds aerobic capacity. And when cardio + lifting are programmed well, you can improve conditioning without automatically sacrificing strength or muscle.
Bottom line:
• Lift for strength. 💪
• Use Zone 2 to support the engine. ❤️
How do you know if you're in Zone 2?
▶️ Perceived Exertion: On a scale of 1–10, 10 being most intense, Zone 2 feels like a 4 or 5.
▶️ Nasal Breathing: You can maintain your breathing entirely through your nose without needing to gasp for air.
▶️ Sustained heart rate is around 60-70% max
Save this for your next cardio day. 🚲
