How to keep your heart rate low when running. In this video I want to share with you how I control my heart rate while I’m running. I’m currently doing lots of aerobic zone 2 running following a modified version of Dr. Phil Maffetone’s MAF heart rate training method. Lots of runners initially really struggle to keep their heart rate low enough to run in their aerobic training zone, but as your endurance improves, your new aerobic fitness will allow you to run faster at the same heart rate. Today’s video has some tips for how you can control your heart rate when you run, so you can run with a low heart rate.
ABOUT ME: I'm James Dunne, a runner, sports rehabilitation therapist (similar to physical therapist) and coach based in the UK (Norwich and London).
Since 2007 I've been working with athletes focusing specifically on helping distance runners and triathletes overcome injury and improve performance through developing their individual running technique.
Running biomechanics and physical therapy are real passions of mine. I love to help runners run strong and stay injury free.
