I have read a few books, talked to a few trainers/athletes, and lots of friends and still not sure what my LT (and other training HR ranges are).
I am estimating that my:
MaxHR: 175
RestingHR: 50
In my spinning class they did a test and came up with “ranges” that can mean different things:
RestingHR - 134
135-145
145-155
155 – MaxHR
I thought my LT Threshold is 150 but when I exercise with CTS tape and they talk about training in below LT, I can not get to above 135 on the trainer at home.
Does this mean that my LT is actually 135?
In a physical test a few year ago (a not “sport” physician…) they told me not to exercise above 135. I know its nonsense but did they mean to say that this is my LT.
I hope I described my confusion clearly and hope even more for somebody to clarify.
Thanks
