This is technical review of the Non-Prophet Endurance Program and the results I achieved. For a more investigative look what changed and challenged me mentally and what I learned in the process, see Part 1.
Tools & Definitions:
The program was 12 Weeks long, with 3 training sessions per week. For me this was on top of 4-5 BJJ sessions / week and (for the first three weeks) one 30-minute strength maintenance session per week.
The program essentially builds volume at a "Zone 2" intensity (65 - 70% MHR). To calculate this, there are some discrepancies in the in the program itself and other tools I had available (FitBit Inspire 2).
Max Heart Rate = 186 bpm
MAF Score = 146 bpm (approximately Zone 2)
FitBit uses proprietary formulas, but their general "Zone" categories are:
"Fat Burn" (~ Zone 1) @ 110 bpm
"Cardio" (~ Zones 2, 3, 4) @ 140 bpm
"Peak" (~ Zone 5) @ 167 bpm
