(5:00) He shares how even very fit people can struggle in activities they don't do often. There is a way to strengthen your cardio and boost mitochondria to increase endurance. (15:00) Zone 2 training can make a big difference. Zone 1 is up to 69% of your aerobic capacity. An example would be a light walk or gardening. Zone 2 is 70-79% of aerobic capacity. Zone 3 is 80-89% of aerobic capacity. Zone 4 is 90-100% aerobic capacity. Zone 2 is a favorite because it's the range at which your body is still burning fat. HIIT training typically relies on sugar-burning. Calculate your Zone 2 by taking 180 - your age +/- 5 (depending on your activity level). If you are a sedentary person, subtract 5. If you are generally active, you can add the 5. Vinnie talks to a lot of obese people; however, they shouldn't worry about Zone 2 just yet. Focus on getting yourself to just move and do what you can do. (28:00) Wearing a heart rate monitor can help.
