Saddle up for a variety of rides as the action heats up.

Over the following weeks in the build to the start of the official L’Etape du Tour Training Plan in March, there will be 1 different workout each week that will help you get to grips with structured workouts in Zwift.

ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
Is your Functional Threshold Power (FTP) correct? This workout will help ensure its set correctly without having to go through a grueling test.

Before we commence our structured training plan for L'Etape du Tour, it's important to have an idea of your Functional Threshold Power, along with the different terminology and training zones that will be used. This introductory workout will introduce you to what you can expect in a structured workout.

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.
