from 2021-11-11T20:00:18
Quantifying your rate of received exhaustion (RPE) is essential to every runner. It can help you:
- Accurately calculate your training impulse (TRIMP)
- Surpass the limitation of running speed and running heart rate when measuring intensity.
In today's episode, Brodie talks about his own interpretation of the RPE scale and the characteristics of each intensity zone.
Brodie works up from 0 to 10 so you can gain insight into each level and help you accurately measure your own intensity levels.
Lastly, Brodie talks about the final considerations about RPE including the variability between runners, when it's best to adjust your intensity dials and practice making perfect.
