Turbo session: 2 x 20
The classic turbo session
Published:
We kick off our 12 Days of Christmas indoor training special with this turbo session, which promises to develop your ability to hold near-threshold efforts.
Over the next 12 days we’ll be bringing you a new indoor training session each day, to get you raring for the coming tri season.
Warm-up
10mins progressive. Start easy and build so that, by the end, you’re sweating and just a couple of clicks below your effort level.
Main set
2 x 20mins with 5mins recovery. In race position, ride at your maximum sustainable pace/power for 20mins.
Spin easy for 5mins and then try to replicate. Note down distances, average power and average heart rate for comparisons to later sessions.
Cool-down
5mins easy spinning.
Look out for tomorrow’s session, a treadmill running session for sprint-distance triathletes
