Summary

Brad talks about maybe the most important element of a successful endurance program--emphasizing aerobic base building at the proper heart rates. This fast paced narration will give you the straight scoop about how to train aerobically, and help you avoid the egregious mistakes that endurance athletes of all ability levels make when they drift into slightly too difficult intensity zone during workouts - training in the Black Hole! Brad dispenses Dr. Phil Maffetone's secret formula of "180-age" heart rate training, and details the burnout he experienced early in 2015 by mistakenly training at too elevated of an aerobic heart rate. Get your training straight by listening to this quick, informative podcast!

1:04.1	especially if you are interested in cardiovascular exercise.
1:09.6	And I did this nice, fast-paced narration podcast that originally
1:13.6	appeared on the primal endurance channel, because it's relating to the importance of building
1:18.8	an aerobic base and training properly for endurance sports, promoting the new book, Primal
1:25.2	Endurance. But it's a very important general message for anybody
1:29.8	that does even a basic level of cardiovascular exercise. If you go to the gym and do your
1:35.4	stairmaster while you're watching CNN or reading a book, or you're doing fast-paced walking
1:40.1	around the neighborhood or doing occasional jogging, there's a very distinct difference between an aerobic metabolism workout and a workout that gets a little more intense and trends into the anaerobic heart rate zones.
1:55.7	The problem is many, many people from casual exercisers up to elite level competitors make the mistake of
2:04.3	doing their cardiovascular, their sustained cardiovascular workouts at slightly too elevated of a heart rate,
2:10.6	and that tends into the chronic cardio realm that you've heard so much about from Mark on Mark's daily Apple over the years.
