That z2 zone sounds very low, what is your current estimated Lactate Threshold Heart Rate (98% of your highest 20mins)?

My LTHR has been as low as ~150 in the last year, when it used to be 170-175 before October '22, it's currently ~156.

https://intervals.icu/ says for 156, my zones are...
0-126
126-143
144-148
149-155
156-160
161-164
165-189

Some sites like Strava, that give zones from simply maximum observed heart rate, give very weird zones.

I just signed up. Where do I find that info?
Cheers.

EDIT - Connected it to Garmin Connect, not to strava yet but everything I do goes onto Garmin too.

Settings to change LTHR plus your indoor and outdoor FTP.

Your imported history in activities should highlight LTHR improvements in red.

Found it, it has linked this mornings ride which wasn't too taxing although I did hit 194bpm which is my max these days.

Feel Im in a similar place to Fez. I set up a custom zone 2 ride on Zwift, based on FTP @185 which according to this is pretty much in the middle of the range it should be. I sit at 125 to 135bpm, in the 140s when I’m fatigued from a big week. Maybe I need to jack it up a bit!
