Why Zone 2 walking burned more fat for me than pushing harder

Zone 2 isn't the "slow" zone. It's the highest effort you can hold while your body still burns fat as its main fuel, and for me it outworked every harder session I ever did. In this one I walk through what Zone 2 actually is, how to find yours with a simple talk-or-sing check, why your zone keeps moving as you get fitter, and the stress-and-cortisol reason easy can beat hard.
