Today's ride is a little bit of work above threshold - for muscle recruitment and development.
This will pay off well in the long run. Basically best average.
the most important part to this workout is the "smooth/off's" to still hold 180-200watts. Still some work but helps you work on oxygen uptake and recovery under load.
Sweet Spot Training (or SST for short) will give great bang for buck. Training at around 90 percent of your threshhold (aka the Sweet Spot) is useful because you can spend quite a bit of time there without building up undue amounts of training stress. You can do this workout as much as you'd like and watch your FTP rise over time.
FAQ: What do the coloured areas overlapping the elevation profile mean?
Segments along the route are coloured along the height profile. Climbs are indicated with red, sprints with green and other segments (e.g. laps or timed segments) with blue.
