Italian professional cyclist, who currently rides for UCI World Team Ineos Grenadiers is a sprinting legend. Returning for his second spell with the team, Elia has achieved so much both on the road and track, with two Olympic medals, 9 grand tour stage wins and 85 pro road victories.
With sprinting chops like that it's only right we serve up one of his favorite sprint sessions. Today's workout consists of 3 “longer sprints” of 1 min, 2 min, 1 min with full recovery. To finish off the workout you've got 2 rounds of 3 x 15 seconds sprints. If this doesn't make you faster, nothing will.
