In Dr. Coggan and Allens book they have a 15min rest interval between 20 mi intervals for sweet spot but 10 min rest for L4. THis seems long is there a physiological explanation? In addition I have read on this forum of ppl taking a 5 min rest between 20 min intervals. thanks

you mean this thread on this very page? http://www.cyclingforums.com/t439564.html It is a fair question though. I used to worry about all kinds of minutiae like that (sp?) before I saw the forest (and it was green ).

One could argue that the rest between intervals or blocks is akin to a proper cooldown after a ride. I find that getting off the bike immediately after a hard effort is not good for me. Thus, I make a conscious effort to keep moving my legs.
