I love the idea of taking both average heart rate and time into account to calculate the session workload! It seems to me that the heart rate should maybe be weighted though, otherwise both factors contribute equally to the final workload - but time should not be as important as heart rate? As an example, I feel that running 70 minutes instead of 60 at an easy pace should not count as much as increasing the heart rate from 145 to 155 for a whole session. Keep up the great work, really informative material here.
I'd love to see how this fits in with the Stryd foot pod numbers. They have their own calculation of stress-per-run, but I don't know how they get that number. However, what's interesting is that they compare your 6 week average stress with your 1 week average stress to guide you as to whether you're maintaining, productive, overreaching, etc. much as you laid out in the video.
Great video. My niggles also appear when I am running fatigued such as not sleeping well the night before. So in this case, the load is the same but the capacity is reduced. Or you could say the load is higher because of lack of sleep or other stress and fatigue?
@@RunSmarterwithBrodieSharpe they use EPOC as the base, which I think is just summed and averaged over 4 weeks for your chronic load. Then tis your load that day divided by chronic load, which they suggest you keep between 0.8 to 1.5. They also further divvy thay load up between low aerobic, high aerobic, and anaerobic. I'm not 100%, but it looks like it's based on 80/20 (ish)
This paper considered only running by effort. But I like to include other forms of exercises when I calculate my workload. For instance if I do a run and a row, I’ll calculate just my running workload, and also my total workload (run + row). That way at the end of the week I’ll have my running workload and my total workload
Hey Angela, are you referring to the paper mentioned at the very end? If so, It is promoting to watch the next video and the link will be in the description of the next video

Very good point. 👏 thanks for watching

I’d say measuring power is a great way to measure ‘effort’ similar to heart rate.

In a nutshell it's about the training load, not the weekly mileage
Exactly! 😅😅 although breaking it down so succinctly wouldn’t make much of a video 🤣
I wonder how it fits with Garmin's load stuff?
Hmm I’ll have to look into it. They might use heart rate as a metric 🤔

Is this only taking into account running effort? What if you were doing other types of effort, such as hiking or walking there anything of that sort?

Where is the link to the “gait” research paper?

@@RunSmarterwithBrodieSharpe Thank you, it wasn't popping up on my phone. Had to switch to laptop!
