Individual Power Profile Dependent Workouts

High intensity intervals put you under serious stress. Therefore it is essential to prescribe appropriate power specifications to optimize your training benefit and avoid overtraining. The following three different workouts are focussing on strengthening your anaerobic work capacity and VO2max levels. All workouts are optimized either for a time trialist with reduced anaerobic power, an allrounder with medium anaerobic power or a puncheur with very high anaerobic capacity. Do you shine on those punchy climbs or are you just trying to survive? Choose your appropriate workout based on your own power profile.

For workouts tailor-made on even more granular power profiles taking into account your power-to-weight ratio visit www.octaperformance.com.
