I did push-ups was one of the things I did.

Push-ups are kind of more in the muscle endurance.

Obviously, I'm doing more reps when I was doing push-ups.

But pretty much everything else was in that range.

So again, I'm not fully maximizing strength anymore because the cost of it might be a little bit high in terms of injury risk.

Similarly, I'm not strength training 24-7 because I need to make time to do my endurance training and other types of training.

I resistance train three times a week.

Yeah.

Why?

Because, you know, again, the intensity of my training is not that high, at least three days a week.

So the three resistance days are pretty hard because I'm really only doing each body part once a week.

So when I'm doing it, I'm really...

I'll spend that 90 minutes really kind of hammering those body parts.

Three of those days are just zone two.

So three of my four cardio days are zone two days where I'm doing, you know, I'm on a bike and I am riding at a level of intensity that actually allows me to still talk.

You know, not talk like I am now, but talking in sort of a strained way.

So for me, that's about a heart rate of 140 beats per minute.

And that's just not taking a huge toll on me.

Like those are almost like recovery days for me.

And then one day a week, I do a really, really hard VO2 max day.
