"Unlock the Power of Zone 2 Cardio: Trainer's Insights and Benefits"

Zone 2 cardio, also known as low intensity steady-state (LISS) cardio, is a type of aerobic workout performed at an easy to moderate level of intensity. It involves keeping your heart rate elevated at a sustainable rate, typically between 60 to 70 percent of your maximum heart rate. This type of training improves heart health, builds endurance, enhances performance and power, and is less likely to cause burnout or overtraining compared to more intense workouts. To determine if you're in zone 2, monitor your heart rate or use the talk test. Zone 2 cardio can be done with various activities such as running, walking, cycling, swimming, rowing, skating, and elliptical training. It can be done daily and should be incorporated into your routine at least twice a week for optimal benefits.
