After a warm-up, we will move into 2x (15 mins alternating between 2 mins @85% FTP, and a 30 second surge effort (110+ RPM) @105% FTP). We will be mixing up the cadence and position on the bike throughout the course of the workout as well to further challenge your basic skills and on-bike flexibility.
This is a great workout to do on a consistent basis as it works on muscular strength and endurance! We'll also keep a focus of high torque during the burst efforts today.

Today, we'll be aiming for around 16mins of VO2 Max time and incorporating a 40/20 interval approach which will challenge you for sure! Let's make it happen today! REMINDER: You can always adjust the FTP bias via the arrow keys on your keyboard, or the Zwift Companion app. Once you get over threshold, using a %FTP for workout prescription can get murky, so always adjust as needed.
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.
FAQ: What do the climb categories , , , and mean?
Climbs are categorized based on how tough they are, which depends both on the climb's length and its average incline. The toughest climbs are rated (HC comes from Hors Catégorie, which is French for beyond categorization). Less tough climbs are rated as category , less tough climbs than those are rated as , and onwards with and . Any climb less tough than category four does not get a rating.
