EVENT DESCRIPTION
The Workout:
We know how critical it is to have a high FTP power for cycling performance. This is a session I like to call "FTP+", because the intensity of the intervals sits somewhere between FTP power and VO2max power. Yes, this is a challenging session! :)
The intervals in this session are all classified as "long intervals" ranging from 3 to 5 minutes, but as the duration comes down, the intensity goes up! By hanging out for prolonged periods at just above your FTP, you will increase your FTP value, and have a great workout.
The Coach:
Dan Plews is a world-class coach and researcher. He has a Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology. And more than 30 peer-reviewed publications have published his work on topics like training in the heat, training intensity distribution, and training monitoring. As a coach, Dan has guided three athletes to finishes under the 8-hour barrier in Ironman-distance triathlons. 8 hours. Bonkers, right?
As an athlete, Dan applies all he knows with impressive results. He is the current age-group course record holder at the Ironman World Championship in Kona with a time of 8 hours 24 minutes.
