    The Best Exercise For Health, Fitness, and Longevity
    ____
    In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy discusses one of the most effective types of exercise for optimizing fitness, health, and longevity, called zone 2 training. He discusses the specific fitness benefits of zone 2 training such as strengthening the heart and other cardiovascular structures, as well as how it improves mitochondrial function and metabolic efficiency. He also discusses how these adaptations help to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and metabolic dysfunctions such as diabetes, and of course talks about how to do this type of training and incorporate it into your routine with other types of training such as strength training.

    1:28: ✅ Zone 2 training, a form of steady state cardio, has numerous health and fitness benefits for everyone.
    3:28: 💪 Developing slow twitch fibers through Zone 2 training has indirect benefits for fast twitch fibers, such as increased capillarization, improved nutrient delivery, and removal of metabolic byproducts.
    7:21: ✨ Lactate is not a waste product, but a valuable source of energy for the body during exercise.
    10:45: 💪 Zone two training improves the size and quality of mitochondria, aids in lactate processing, and benefits both slow and fast twitch muscle fibers.
    14:33: 💡 The most effective way to find your zone two is through the talk test, where you can maintain a conversation while exercising.
    17:31: ✅ Zone 2 training helps improve cardiovascular fitness and metabolic efficiency.
    20:48: 📚 Zone 2 training can help reduce the risk of metabolic dysfunctions like type 2 diabetes.

    For all the people who might consider starting to work out: When you first start, NEVER start using schedules or goals (for example achieving a certain weight) but learn to love doing the activity itself. The moment your goal is your only motivation; it's just a matter of time before you quit and it's been for nothing.
    I, for example, love lifting weights. (bodybuilding/powerlifting) Let's say there's an exercise that would definitely increase my gains but I absolutely hate doing it; I'll simply pass on that. I won't let that potentially harm my love for the sport.
    When you've ''learned'' to love the activity itself, you can always set up goals or challenges in the future if that's something that you want to do.

    Thank you for this. I've recently lost 69 lbs and down from 265. I definitely plan to try the zone 2 training. Over 20 years have passed with me taking care of patients and not taking care of myself. I once was a dedicated 5-6 day per week gym guy but admittedly didn't do the amount of cardio I needed . I was scrawny and placed emphasis on gaining weight . I gained 50 lbs muscle going from 145 to 195 but as life and career happened I became sedentary and went from 195 to 265 and out of shape and out of breath. With the kids growing and spreading their wings I am inspired to get back my endurance and do some mountain elk hunting and African hunts . Despite knowing my anatomy and physiology I just seemed somewhat overwhelmed on how to proceed on my journey. You have helped me enormously. Thanks so much .

    Thank you doctor, you have confirmed that Zone 2 exercise is key. I have been practicing zone 2 for two years now and work out 3 to 4 days a week averaging 10 to 12 miles per workout, 2 hours per workout. I use a polar beat heart rate chest monitor along with a sports watch to monitor total steps per workout. I also incorporate light weight training in between aerobic exercise. These two methods combined with cutting carbs and processed sugar out of your diet are key to getting you to your zone. Bottom line it's challenging work and gets easier as you progress, and the benefits are great. I passionately believe that we as humans need to get back to that "hunter gatherer" stage in human evolution to achieve our ultimate health goals because we have gotten lazy in the process which in turn has brought all the diseases and the shortening of life expectancy. We don't need get rich diet plans or magic pills to get to our fitness goals, all we need is taking what we already know and combining it with getting off our buts and moving.

      So, you've been consciously exercising for half of your life so it sounds like you've established a long-term habit. That is so, so important. When you get to be older, if you can maintain your habit and manage to stay injury free, you will likely notice the real benefits to all of that work. Just compare yourself to non-active people your own age and you will (a) be amazed and (b) feel like a superstar. I'm the opposite age (62) and I feel like I'm 26. Keep it up and you'll notice that it's not really work any more. It's just something you do. I'm not me if I'm not training for something.

    I have been fan of your videos. I believe this is one of the best. One thing I would like to mention that various studies show when working out we tend to burn carbohydrate at the beginning, when exercise intensity gets higher we tend to burn fat for energy, but it plateaus out much sooner and reverts back to burning carbohydrate again. So zone two training, the way you suggested - keeping a steady rhythm/intensity - probably is going to work for better carbohydrate burning but comparatively less for fat burning.

    Cycling is my go-to exercise. Mainly because my knees are done due to road running. Around zone 2 is my favourite speed. 2-3 hours at this rate leaves me feeling really tired but also really pumped.

    Thank you, this is one of the most easy and direct explanation of phenomenon of exercise physiology I have ever seen ! especially explaining on the part all system are always running. one of the confusion about lactate training is people will think Aerobic is not working anymore, actually it's not true, it's just using anaerobic as more efficient fuel source. I love this video thanks

    Your videos are so wonderful, I’m a retired nurse, and I love watching them and learning. My question is this when you’re talking about maximum heart rate, I think it’s important to know what you’re resting heart rate is. For example, my resting heart rate is somewhere between 42 and 44 bpm. Therefore if I’m getting my heart rate up to 220 minus my age (62) I’m going to a higher level than somebody who’s resting heart rate is 65.

  • @hollywinchell3412
    @hollywinchell3412 8 месяцев назад +4

    I am glad you mentioned the potential shortfalls of heart rate zone training. I can hardly ever get down to Zone 2, unless I'm doing a very slow walk, even though I have 25+ years of training as a long-distance runner. I like the RPE method better.

      @dresden_slowjog 8 месяцев назад +3

      Do you use your watch with the preset heart rate zones, or did you adjust them to your induvidual settings? Just asking bc a buddy's HR zones were way off. He'd used the Garmin with factory settings which in his case we're off. He set weight, Maximum HR correctly, and off he went into zone 2. / perhaps you've got somen undiscovered extra heart beats like me? At 45 years my max HR is 204 BPM. All those sensors were developed in healthy (!) athletes and may encounter problems with any such nonstandard heart conditions. That's the fine-print disclaimer of my POLAR watch and searching online. I live with it. I can easily talk at 170 BPM.

    Perhaps the title of this video should be "The Best Intensity of AEROBIC Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Longevity" considering there is no mention of weight lifting exercise. While, weight lifting exercise or resistance training is not aerobic exercise, it is essential for human health. One of the misconceptions in dealing with exercising to improve health is the idea of asking the question should it be aerobic or should it be resistance training? The truth is both aerobic and resistance training are needed for health. This is why it can fall short to say there is only one exercise needed to optimize health from exercise.

    When I started using resistance training equipment (3 years ago) in the swimming pool I started getting intense heartburn so I seen my doctor and they explained to me in high workout you’re lactic acid can build up in the lungs creating the feeling of heartburn. With swimming you have limits to taking in oxygen/breathing out waste so my doctor recommended I focus on taking more breaths/oxygen. He would of been far more concerned if I was having these symptoms in the gym breathing normally well working out. Now I’m hitting far longer distances swimming with zero symptoms which I put down to a increase in my muscle/blood volume lvl and the increase capillaries. Would be great to see video on Weight vs Strength and what path is recommended for best health.
