ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
Toronto Hustle Friday Hammer: “Ramp-up” workout
This workout will simulate the intensity of a 6-8 minute climb. (every 2 min you will increase the pace with the goal to hit Zone 5 and zone 6 on the last ramp)
Start with an easy warm up followed by 2x1min seated accelerations at 110% FTP
3 sets ramp-up (2min for each step) with 4min recovery between sets.
Finally, a short 5 min recovery will lead to the last interval, a 5x1min ON/OFF (ON is at 125% FTP and OFF is at 50% FTP)
5min cool down

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.
