Sunday Smart-Trainer Session – Robin Tullett’s Pyramid Endurance Workout Four

For longer distance events such as an Ironman or Ironman 70.3 spending training time at both threshold and tempo intensity is beneficial, as it is likely that you’ll spend some portion of the cycle leg at these intensities (more time at tempo than threshold). This workout is a great test that gives you a great training stimulus. Don’t attempt this workout unless you are well-rested. Treat this as a race simulation use your race bike and practise your nutrition.
