Author: John Levison

A classic Russian Steps interval session, that starts with a gentle 8 minute warm up before a block of 5 minutes at FTP. A short rest and then 3 x sets of sharp intervals at 115% FTP, as the efforts get longer, the rests get shorter. The workout then finishes with another 5 minute block at FTP before a gentle cool down. This workout will be challenging with lots of short efforts above threshold.
