This workout is really rough. Ramping up to Z4 quick on the bike is prolly the worst part. I tried to make it in 1 min but ussually was at 3.8 or 3.9 for 15-30 seconds longer. The power was prolly right though.
I wanted to quit during the second bike and had planned on quitting after 5 but pulled one more out. Total time was 1:37 with a mile warmup and a short bike warmup. 48 minutes of really high intensity. The plan is to start backing up these workouts with some real race results. I think I finally have the season planned and the motivated work began tonight. Having the kid in day care during these workouts really helps get me in the zone bc I can't say oh I will just do this tomorrow. I also had to switch Lemond spin bikes bc I couldn't crank the brake down far enough and it kept clicking. As my title implies there is not much more I want out of this workout and Tony you can't do it. I am still trying to load stuff from Garmin training center. Mark if you read this can you let me know.
No worries from me, Adam. Not going to be seeing me turning these kinds of numbers!
ReplyDeleteDude you're doing lots of speed work really early, what distances are you going to be racing this year?
ReplyDelete1 Sprint, then 1 Oly, then a Half. I am basically at the point that I don't ever get injured so I might as well up all the intensity that I can and bc I can't get the base stuff with a kid around in winter. The half is at the end of august. All the stroller pushing has helped with endurance and strength but killed all my speed. We shall see.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that sounds like it'd work, but idk about the 'never getting injured' stuff. Risky place to be
