Workout description

When we complete long climbs, the lower cadence results in high crank torque, which recruits more of your fast-twitch fibres.

With this in mind, it's vital that our training meets the demands of the event.

Today we are performing lower cadence intervals but with power closer to threshold.

After warming up, the session consists of 4 intervals with cadence varying from 70rpm to 95rpm.

All this gets you ready for a high cadence near-threshold finale!.
