DESCRIZIONE EVENTO
Every Wednesday at 7pm UK-time, Tri247 present a triathlon focused workout brought to you by a guest 'coach.' This will include sessions by pro triathletes, coaches and notable characters associated with the sport.

The workouts are about 60 minutes long and designed to add variety and interest to your weekly training schedule.


THE SESSION

The basic session here is an uncomplicated ten sets of four minutes work, one minute recovery. The ‘countdown' twist comes in the structure, which will be:

4 @ 80%
3 @ 90%
2 @ 100%
1 @ 110%

The first part of the session should feel relatively comfortable, but you’ll be training your ability to cope with the increasing fatigue through the set as you build towards the final VO2 Max rep at the end.


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.
