Group Workout

イベント概要
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT

To build endurance and aerobic efficiency we need to perform long steady efforts. Today's session comprises of 4 x 8 minute sub threshold efforts.

The first 8min block is steady. For the next three, after opening the interval with a 30 second surge, the remaining 7.5 minutes will gradually increase in power over the duration of the effort.

This workout is a very slight variation of one from Kevin Poulton, coach of Mat Hayman, Caleb Ewan, and many other top pro cyclists.

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.
