Porsche was founded in 1931 by Ferdinand Porsche in Stuttgart, Germany, originally as an automotive engineering firm.
After World War II, the company created its first sports car, the Porsche 356, which built its early reputation.
In 1964, Porsche introduced the iconic Porsche 911, a model that has continued to evolve and define the brand.

Zone2

1. What is Zone 2?

 

Technically, it is exercise where your heart rate stays between 60-70% of your Maximum Heart Rate.

The Talk Test (Easiest way to check): While exercising, you should be able to “hold a conversation in full sentences, but you cannot sing.” If you are gasping for air or struggling to finish a sentence, you are going too hard (likely Zone 3 or 4).

 

2. Why is it best for “Health”?

 

The benefits occur at the cellular level, specifically targeting your Mitochondria (the power plants of your cells).

  • Maximal Fat Oxidation: In Zone 2, your body is forced to use fat as its primary fuel source. This improves “Metabolic Flexibility,” reducing the risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

  • Mitochondrial Function: It increases the number and efficiency of your mitochondria. Healthy mitochondria are key to slowing down aging (Longevity) and preventing chronic diseases.

  • Sustainable: unlike high-intensity intervals (HIIT), Zone 2 places very little stress on the body (low cortisol impact), allowing you to recover quickly.

 

3. How to start

 

  • Activities: Brisk walking (Power walking), stationary cycling at a steady pace, or very slow jogging.

  • Duration: Aim for 45 minutes or more. (The body takes time to deplete immediate sugars and switch to burning fat efficiently).

  • Frequency: 3–4 sessions per week.
