Zone Calculator

Training by a zone will help you focus more on your workout then on your heart rate or power values.   Many workout devices allow you to set your zones, and display that with or without your heart rate/wattage values.  For me, it’s easier to see what zone I’m instead of the heart rate/wattage number.   Without the zone, you’ll have to calculate this while you are doing your workout.

My workouts reference zones instead of heart rate %.   After you have done your Lactate Threshold Heart Rate or FTP Test, you can use the LTHR Zone Calculator or FTP Zone Calculator to get your target zone.
