No idea what my training zones are, Elite Turno trainer doesn't have power I don't think (speed/cadence) but I know if I'm going for it I hit 175bpmish. 150bpmish I am comfortably spinning so I guess I can use these as a guide?

As you can tell I've no idea what I'm doing hah...I'm planning on catching up on a lot of cycling from this year whilst sat on the turbo.

If your upper threshold HR is around 175 then z2 (steady endurance) will probably be between 120-145 approximately.
Basically you should be able to hold a conversation at that intensity without struggling for breath.

OK this makes sense, thanks! Will start giving this a go. Will have to work out what sort if training plan I want to follow.
