Z2/4×4 Trainer turns the two most effective endurance methods — easy Zone 2 base work and high-intensity Norwegian 4×4 intervals — into a simple daily plan built around YOUR heart rate.
WHAT YOU GET
• Daily and weekly Zone 2 prescriptions at 60–70% of your max heart rate to build your aerobic base.
• Norwegian 4×4 sessions: four 4-minute intervals at 85–95% of max heart rate, with 3-minute recoveries — the protocol used to boost VO2 max.
• Weekly health-maintenance and weight-loss targets to keep you consistent.
• Personalized zones from your max heart rate (220 − age), which you can override if you know your true max.
WORKS WITH APPLE HEALTH
• Pull in your heart rate, resting heart rate, active energy, body weight, and past workouts — or enter everything manually. Your choice.
• Completed Zone 2 and 4×4 workouts are saved back to Apple Health so all your training lives in one place.
IPHONE + APPLE WATCH
• Plan and review on iPhone; train with your zones on your wrist.
