Zwift Academy 2023 is coming up November 6! Workout of the Week this week is inspired by the very first Zwift Academy winner, Leah Thorvilson, who won Zwift Academy in 2016 ! Today's workout is one of Leah's favorites and will guide you through what is known as 'over/unders'. This type of workout helps boost your ability to maintain high intensity efforts for longer periods of time.

A QUOTE FROM LEAH:

“Zwift Academy changed my life forever, and continues to even beyond the pro contract with the people I have met who are now such close friends/teammates/colleagues,” she says. “I got to experience pro life with one of the best teams in the world. It's something most people only dream of, and I wouldn't trade that time for anything.”
