Adding UT2 volume

macher: Congrats on your first (of many) 2K tests.

The interactive plan is going to take very good care of you. You'll be surprised by how much improvement you see over a cycle.

DId you set it up for a 16 week cycle? I think that's the default.

No I did 26 weeks, should I do 13? I put fitness level 1.

Man your 2k is like 2:20 faster than me, LOL. I got a long way to go. I'm not really looking for speed but want to get fit. I assume better speeds mean I'm more fit though.

Would love to get below 8:00 by 26 weeks though.

26 is fine !

You'll have a blast getting fitter and seeing the progress.

And don't be afraid to switch things up if you start getting bored with one type of workout. Just don't overdo anything and you should be fine.

Just did a 60min session at 2:15/min and I kept my HR within the UT2 zone and I feel really happy about my progress. It also seems to help that I started lifting weights again after a 2 month break. Did a light 3x5 of ass to grass front squats last Friday with 80kg and another session on Monday. These two sessions seem to have made a difference already as my legs feel much better. It could of course be that I've done a daily 50-60min session for the past week... but I have the feeling that it's the squatting.
