This session is great for triathletes, road cyclists and mountain bikers.

I needed to develop a short, intense session for an athlete due to the position they have found themselves in due to changes in COVID-19 restrictions where they live. This session targets a range of intensities in a limited time frame. This session is great to build your top end intensity but also your ability to turn on the intensity with limited recovery and is great for both road cyclists and triathletes, as well as mountain biking.

Spending time training at appropriate intensities is important for developing your ability to ride at different paces or intensities in an event. For a half-Ironman event you will spend most of the event riding at Level III (about 77-90% Functional Threshold Power). This session is great for a taper week leading into an event. Even though this workout is designed for a half-Ironman athlete road cyclists especially those doing a century and mountain bikers can also benefit from it.
