In the Zone: Start Small, Get Big Results

HeartZones: 101 Week Six

One of the best ways to get fitter is to constantly take small fitness steps. One of these systems is called Kaizen, whcih means (loosely) small constant change.

"Kaizen" is a Japanese expression for constant small improvements. In other words, there is a great deal of value in a program that makes a 1% improvement 100 times, resulting in more than a 100% improvement.

Yet, many want a “quick fix” or a fast change and they would like to make a one-time change of 100%. Which approach do you think has the greater chance for success?

The Heart Zones training program uses kaizen as one of its core principles. This week, we're in Week 6 of Heartzones 101 , our eight-week program to get you started on a Heart Zones training plan.
