Someteimes it seems to me that the more FT fibre gifted riders develop better on more L2 and the more ST gifted riders can handle more intensity...
There are also discussions along the lines that the athletes of today have to train more to get the same training response as "yesterdays"...
I have always been an "on/off guy", so I usually don't do this kind of WOs (I have felt that I "have it"). And at 62 kg the absolute numbers ain't...
OK, got it. So I'm back where I began. I wanted a training stress that was more race specific (high VI), and it looks like I have done that, but I...
So, you don't think that NP is actually reflecting the intensity of this kind of ride?:confused:
What is intriguing me is that I didn't plan to increase my FTP with this WO. As you say AP is low (mid L3). I wanted to have a WO with a high VI...
Using WKO+ and a PowerTap, so numbers ought to be OK. AP is way below NP, VI is like 1.35-1.40. I have transformed from 2x20-30, to HOP, to...
Trying to sit, ain't trying to make a "NP-buster". My concern is really that they "feel to easy", but, as you say 1,05 is quite much (for me anyway).
I have done a couple of sessions with 30 s intervals/ 60 s rest for an hour (=40 intervals/30 s). 30 s at FTP 150% and 60 s at "selfselected"...
Just as a side note, if you check out Andy Coggan's presentation "The individual Pursuit: demands and preparation"...
Ooops, my wrong, better check myself next time. The link is to the study that proceeded the one with the runners. Interesting though, first...

We used to ride at 10 below (C)... but that was then...for 3-4 hours... We used to ride on the canals - pure ice - on tubulars, but with shoes...
Well, Susanne Ljunskog started using them before her world's. Her bikes even has differents angles (it's said that she turned one contract down...
From your first post: Why is that? Would I be better off, bulking up a little to achieve better wattage, maybe even better W/kg? You CAN just...

I beleive he did 10 s on / 50 s off for an hour.... DB
Well, "fartlek" by definition is the absolute opposit to keeping within a certain range, so - no.
Mhm, I think Alex's and AC's advice/insight is the most valueable in this case, do the WO's in this manner and see if it's possible to achieve a...
