150-200 Minutes of Zone 2 Cardio Weekly

Accumulate roughly 150 minutes per week, with 200+ minutes as an ideal target, of steady aerobic work at a conversational pace where you can breathe mostly through your nose and avoid gasping. This can be split across multiple sessions and paired with one longer endurance workout plus one shorter or harder cardio session each week. The goal is to build aerobic capacity and cardiovascular health while keeping the effort sustainable and unlikely to interfere with strength or hypertrophy training.

“Zone 2 cardio is great. It's good for fat burning. You're in that zone where you're burning fat and not carbs as much.”
