Bike : - 0:40

  • The purpose of this ride is to incorporate some active recovery into your week.
  • If you're tired and in need of some complete recovery, then this is a good
  • workout to skip; also, if you are pedaling on your trainer indoors you can shorten
  • the time to about 30:00 & still achieve the desired recovery benefit.

Daily total > 1:40

Week > to date > 6:35


Saturday

Bike : - 1:15

  • For those still stuck indoors, your patience is no doubt paying off: indoor cycling is a  much more efficient means of building power and aerobic strength than riding outside ... not to mention the increased safety factor of avoiding potholes, cars, and semis.
  • That said, of course, it's important to ride outside as well to build general confidence and bike handling skills. In short, get outside as soon as you can, but don't be too depressed if that can't happen for another few weeks....
  • 15:00 Warm up :
  • 4:00 in easy gear, 5:00 in moderate gear, 6:00 in moderately hard gear
  • 2 x 4:30 sets w/30 sec recovery after each - perform each repeat as follows:
  • 20 sec right leg - 10 sec transition - 20 sec left leg - 10 sec transition
  • 30 sec right leg - 15 sec transition - 30 sec left leg - 15 sec transition

  • Cool down completely, gradually bringing your HR back down toward 60%

Daily total > 1:15

Week > to date > 7:50


Sunday

Run : - 1:00

  • Begin at a very relaxed pace, and gradually bring your HR intensity up to 60, then 70, then 75%.
  • Half way through the run, throw in 10:00 of quickened striding (90-95 spm), allowing your HR intensity to get closer to 80% .... but not above.
  • Recover for 5:00 at 60% intensity and repeat the 10:00 effort again.
  • Cruise in the final portion of the Run : - at a very controlled, relaxed intensity .... keep it at or below 70% from then on in.

Bike : - 0:40

  • Immediately after your run, either spin outside or on your trainer.
  • Rather than the usual push to elevate your HR intensity, your HR will already be  quite high from the run. Instead, focus on holding your HR at or near 75%,
  • and then gradually reduce the intensity by the end. Here's a guideline for  those of you who are riding indoors:
  • In your large chain ring and a moderately hard gear, begin with:
  • 2 x 12:00 |-§-| 75% w/3:00 |-§-| 60% after each, as follows:
  • 3:00 in aero position, spinning |-§-| 90 rpm
  • 3:00 in climbing position, spinning |-§-| 75-80 rpm
  • 3:00 in aero position, spinning |-§-| 100 rpm
  • Cool down completely to 60% intensity for the final 5:00
