Group Workout
EVENT DESCRIPTION
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
This training prepares you for race situations when you are trying to follow a group and you need to deal with variations of rhythm around your race pace.
WORKOUT DESIGNER
Rodrigo Tosta has been a triathlete for 14 years and coach for 9 years (level I by CBTri). 11x Ironman Finisher and Ultraman UB515 2017 Finisher. More than 100 trained athletes, among them, several classifications for world championships (IM, IM 70.3 and Long Distance).
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.
