Power Up Training Camp Workout #2: Sprint
Group Workout
DESCRIZIONE EVENTO
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
To help you prepare for the Zwift Power Up Training Camp, this workout will replicate the gradual increase in pace leading into a group sprint.
Today you are the sprinter for the team so the last 200m is out of the saddle with full power. The power increases quickly and the effort is 2 minutes.
WORKOUT DESIGNER
Greg "Hendy" Henderson - As a five-time Olympian, six-time Tour de France competitor, and former World Champion on the track, Greg spent 20 years as a pro cyclist. In 2014, Greg started coaching and the former Endurance Performance Director for USA Cycling now trains individual athletes across a broad range: from club level to Tour de France riders.
ABOUT THE POWER UP TRAINING CAMP
The Power Up Training Camp Challenge presented by BikeRadar is a chance to take your fitness to the next level. For free. Six lucky Zwifters will win a trip to a real-life training camp in beautiful Banyoles, Spain in early December. As if that wasn't enough, next July BikeRadar Training Camp Challenge participants will also get an invite to the 2019 L'Étape du Tour: an event where cyclists ride the same route as a Tour de France stage.
The Power Up Training Camp Challenge requires you complete three prescribed group workouts between Oct. 15 — 21. Our coaches designed each session and each workout tests a different specialty like climbing, time trialing, or sprinting. You do not need to get all gold stars. Just do your best during each workout. Once you've completed your workouts, we'll send you an invite to complete a short, one-minute video interview. After completing the interview online, our judges will choose the camp participants.

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.
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.
