🏔️ Why Do We Train in Different Heart Rate Zones?
Have you ever started running up a hill and watched your heart rate jump to 167 bpm? Depending on your age, you could suddenly be training in Zone 3, 4, or even Zone 5.
The question isn’t “Can you get there?”
The question is…
👉 How long can you stay there before your body needs to recover?
That’s exactly why we train the way we do at OCR Academy.
When you see a workout like 10 minutes AMRAP (As Many Rounds/Reps As Possible), we’re not just trying to make you tired. We’re measuring and improving your ability to produce consistent effort over an extended period.
When you’re climbing a hill:
✅ Push hard.
✅ Let your heart rate climb.
✅ When you need to recover, bring it back down to Zone 2, where you can comfortably hold a conversation.
✅ Then attack the hill again.
You did it once…
Why not do it again?
Maybe your strategy is:
🏃 10 minutes on, 5 minutes easy.
🏃 4 minutes on, 2 minutes easy.
🏃 2 minutes hard, 1 minute recovery.
There isn’t one perfect ratio.
The key is having a plan, staying consistent, and repeating quality efforts.
Every interval teaches your body to recover faster, work longer, and become more efficient when your heart rate climbs.
This Saturday is our final hill session of the season!
📍 Calabogie Peaks
🕥 10:30 AM
Come find out where your fitness is today… and see how long you can keep climbing before your body asks for a recovery.
Practice = Progress. 💪
