Thank you Coach Lynda for the clarification!
This is all quite new to me and my fascination with boxing is only coz I’ve noticed positive changes to my body in just a short while of doing it, something I’ve not noticed with other activities except of course, MTB. Also, I recently committed myself to a month to month contract w/ this boxing deal so just trying to get my money’s worth 🙂
Your answer to # 2 makes perfect sense. Obviously I had not considered the differing zones for various sports. I’m still making sense out of my HR and how to train / ride accordingly. Looking ahead at both of your plans I’ve stacked, I will surely acquire a deeper understanding of such. I’ll most certainly follow your suggestions once my plan begins, dropping boxing to 1x/week and I’m pleased to know that I can test outside this time of year.
Thanks again!
