VO2 Buildup

Set your trainer to high resistance when you do these hard bursts. You don't want the wheel to spin on the roller.
Warmup 10 minutes
Then do do 8-12 x (30 seconds at Mid Level 4 FTP, 30 seconds Top of Level 4 FTP, 30 seconds Level 5 VO2 Max, 90-second recovery spin). Stay seated throughout.
Cool down 10 minutes

3 x 9 minute "Threshold Pyramids"

10 minute warm up
3 set of 9 minute "Threshold Pyramids" - gradual increases in power until peak reached at 105% FTP then decrease
3 mins recovery between intervals
8 mins warm down

A pretty tough session this one. Will really work on your ability to stay relaxed riding at or above threshold pace. Concentrate on keeping the upper body still and relaxed and the cadence smooth as the power increases. It'll still feel hard on the way down from the top of each pyramid. Focus on keeping god form all the way through.

Target wattages set based on % of FTP so ensure your FTP values are set correctly in your personal profile!
