Note: Bike and run workouts are mostly written in duration. Swims are written in yardage and have an estimated swim time associated with them. If the swims take you much longer than the estimated duration prescribed, then shorten them to the prescribed duration.

• ZR (RECOVERY) = BELOW 74% of threshold heart rate
• Z1 (Aerobic Endurance Zone) = 74-84% of threshold heart rate
• Z2 (Endurance Tempo Zone) = 85-90% of threshold heart rate
• Z3 (Threshold Tempo Zone) = 90-97% of threshold heart rate
• Z4 (best effort repeats) = Anything above Z3 will be considered Z4 or ‘best effort’
