What are training zones? Why are they important? How do you establish your own training zones?

Join host Emma-Kate Lidbury as she uncovers all you need to know on the subject, starting with the basics of training zones across all three sports (and how they differ!) and then getting into the weeds with coach and Olympian Ryan Bolton. Ryan shares his preferred benchmark tests, how to establish training zones from those tests, and common mistakes he sees athletes making when it comes to training zones. Bolton also answers questions from listeners.

Then, we're joined by Triathlete's senior editor and resident gear guru Chris Foster, who talks through all the must-have gear for using training zones while running, biking, and swimming.
