Training zones are a way to structure and monitor the intensity of your physical activity in order to help you achieve specific fitness goals. By dividing your workout into different intensity zones, you can ensure that you are targeting specific energy systems and physiological adaptations. There are several different ways to define training zones, but a common method is to use heart rate as the primary indicator of intensity.
