DESCRIPTION DE L'ÉVÉNEMENT
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
After a warm-up, we will move into 4x (15 minutes alternating between 2 minutes @80% FTP, and a 30 second surge effort (110+ RPM) @105% FTP). Working in this way, above and below threshold, will improve your lactate tolerance as the workout progresses, as well as lactate shuttling ability as your body will metabolize the lactate created while working above your threshold. We will be mixing up the cadence and position on the bike throughout the course of the workout also to further challenge your basic skills and on-bike flexibility. Come and join us!

ABOUT GROUP WORKOUTS
Zwifters line up in the starting area just like a normal event and once the event starts, workout mode begins. Everyone stays together regardless of power output. That's right, if you're outputting 100W and another Zwifter is outputting 400W you will stay in exactly the same position relative to each other. Only if you stop pedaling and fall 6 meters behind the group will the rubber-banding stop.
HELPFUL HINT
We highly recommend doing one of the FTP tests as the estimated FTP can be inaccurate and make the difficulty level of the workouts too high for your current fitness level.
