Over-Under Intervals: The Science Behind Them and Tips for Success
Over-under intervals improve your ability to shuttle and buffer lactate near the boundaries of your threshold power. Improving these capabilities will increase your anaerobic capabilities allowing you to output higher power values with greater efficiency and less mental fatigue.
Threshold Intervals for Cyclists: Benefits, Examples, and Tips for Success
No matter what your goals are—you should be doing threshold intervals. Spending time close to your functional threshold power (FTP) offers extraordinary benefits to your aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, mental stamina, and sustained power capabilities. Not to mention, doing threshold intervals will help to increase your FTP!
What is a Good FTP and is Mine Too Low?
Power-based training is without a doubt the best way to structure training for cycling. However, if your FTP isn’t accurate you could be missing out on the benefits of training with power. Power-based, structured interval training is one of the most accessible and accurate ways to measure performance for cyclists. With a power meter, you’re…
