Sorry if this is very basic, but what does MAF stand for? I've seen it mentioned a lot in the forums but can't seem to find what the acronym stands for.

I'm sure, as usual, this will end up being a thread 300+ comments strong about how to do it and why to do it just like all other MAF threads I don't read. brace yourself...
I'm not one of those people, but as I understand it the basic idea is to do a bunch of long, slow runs with your heart rate at a certain number.
The basics- run slow to build aerobic endurance base before adding faster speedwork. It's been a staple of distance runnign for years... just not always described as MAF training. Maffetone's contribution is the use of heart rate as a means of measuring workouts and progress. The idea is legit.
Its the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries.... Very important for us BFR's ... we are all pagan...er vegan.. um paleo its paleo that we all are. And MAF is responsible for regulating all Hunter Gather activities.

When your MAF Sensor goes bad in your car's engine look out, your fuel economy may be halved!
Mine was, and when you're used to using the trip meter rather than fuel gauge it can mean a training run you hadn't planned on!
