Every Wednesday at 7:05pm UK-time, Tri247 present a triathlon focused workout brought to you by a guest 'coach.' This will include sessions by pro triathletes, coaches and notable characters associated with the sport.

The workouts are about 60 minutes long and designed to add variety and interest to your weekly training schedule.

THE SESSION

This session will be lead by three-time Olympian and twice ITU Senior World Champion, Helen Jenkins from Jinx Sport. The first of a four week Winter Challenge series supported by Stages Cycling, one rider in this session - at random - will win a Stages Dash GPS cycling computer worth over £250! Yes, simply join in and you could be a big winner.

This session will see athletes work just below current threshold levels (90/95% of ftp) for longer reps but will also include a “challenge” at the end of the workout given by Helen.

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.
