2. FTP Short Blocks

The goal of today’s workout is to spend some quality time near your functional threshold power (FTP)—without going to failure. We do this by running through short blocks of 90 seconds to 2 ½ minutes of intensity. This allows you to maintain good rhythm in each rep and have small rest periods of 30 seconds in-between. Three sets of interval blocks, lasting eight, ten and twelve minutes, is a perfect session to push up your aerobic adaptations, boosting your FTP development and endurance capacities.
