Hi,

My boyfriend loves Experience Momentum in Fremont for his back.

I used to see https://www.lakewashingtonpt.com/mark-bouma before he moved to west seattle. Too much of a drive for me.
I now go to proformance rehab in Eastlake and see Jennifer. What I like about both Mark and proformance (which he recommended to me) is that you’re with the PT the whole time, not going to assistants for the exercises (which experience momentum does). I think that’s a personal preference thing, but I think there’s something nice there about the continuity of care.

Thanks Maya, I get “This coupon code is only eligible to be used once.” when I try to get the intermediate with the same code.

Hi Maya,
I wasn’t paying enough attention when I got the training plan and ended up with advanced instead of intermediate. Is there a way to ‘return’ the plan and get the intermediate one, or am I stuck?

Thank you Carolyn! That was a great response. I’ll try out some more of that stuff you suggested tomorrow 🙂

Warm ups!

Sorry if this has already been asked, I can’t search forum posts with the website re-design. The aerobic days we have are structured 10-20 min warm up, 30-40 min exercise, 10 min cool down.

I haven’t warmed up for anything since high school track. Questions:
– Any suggestions for how to spend this warm up time? I’ve been running even slower than the pace for just under the AeT. Sometimes I walk for 5 if I’m just getting off my desk chair for the first time all day. Is that the idea? In high school we did a skipping-based dynamic warm up that would definitely put me over AeT… but I also only ever was a sprinter during those days.
– How do I decide if I do 10 or 20 minutes? 20 seems super long to me, but maybe I need it? Not sure.

Topic request (and I feel dumb asking): for the aerobic days, training peaks references “RPE”, which I’m unfamiliar with. I looked up what 5-6 RPE is, and I definitely get over my aerobic threshold HR if I run at 5-6.

Is the idea to do the exercise (ex 30min run after warmup) as close to the zone 2 threshold you can get without surpassing it? I’m a little hazy on what I’m actually aiming for. How closely should I be watching my HR while I’m running? Is it okay if I’m over for a couple minutes total, or does that end up being quite impactful?

Hi! I did my AeT test on a treadmill and had a HR drift 5.4% (comparing avg for first half and avg for second half). My avg heart rate for the first half was 145.

Is it good enough to just hand wave a bit and use 143 as my zone 2 threshold rather than doing the test again?
