Zone 2 Cardio

Has anyone here had any experience/success with focusing on Zone 2 cardio? From what I understand Zone 2 cardio is where you can carry on a conversation. Cardio in this zone pulls from fat vs carbs.

I've been trying it for a fews day using my incline treadmill and was wondering if anyone had any long term experience/success with it.

Zone 2 cardio is between 60% - 70 % of your max heart rate. The math for me is 220 minus my age, so 220-44=176. And then I get 60-70% of that 176. So 106-123. It does require you to have a device like a smart watch to be able to monitor your heart rate as you exercise.

Again, just wondering if anyone had success doing this long term as I'm just starting out.
