0:00:10 | 0:00:08 | Welcome to the second workout in this plan called Fat for fuel. |
0:01:00 | 0:00:08 | As the name of this workout suggests, you will be using your fat as fuel. |
0:02:00 | 0:00:09 | This session is designed to improve your aerobic capacity through better metabolic flexibility. |
0:03:00 | 0:00:08 | Which is the ability to switch your fuel source depending on your workload. |
0:04:00 | 0:00:09 | The aerobic intensity varies in this session to optimize fat and carbohydrate consumption. |
0:05:00 | 0:00:08 | Keep your cadence in a comfortable range, we recommend between 80 - 90 rpm. |
0:06:00 | 0:00:07 | The resistance will change throughout today's workout. |
0:07:00 | 0:00:10 | The lowest intensity level at which you will ride is 58% of your FTP and the highest intensity level is 83% of your FTP. |
0:08:00 | 0:00:09 | Any changes in resistance should be sustainable and should not be so hard to achieve. |
0:10:00 | 0:00:07 | Maintain a steady pace throughout the workout. |
0:11:00 | 0:00:09 | When the resistance starts to rise, you can increase your cadence to between 90 and 100 rpm. |
0:12:00 | 0:00:06 | One minute to the first increase! |
0:13:30 | 0:00:07 | This is a five minute block of higher intensity. |
0:16:00 | 0:00:08 | Now you are at the top and the resistance will only go down. |
0:19:00 | 0:00:07 | The first pyramid of higher intensity is behind you! |
0:20:00 | 0:00:06 | It wasn't that difficult, was it? |
0:21:00 | 0:00:08 | The second pyramid will be the same as the first, except for its length. |
0:21:10 | 0:00:07 | It is going to be a bit longer, 8 minutes in length. |
0:22:00 | 0:00:07 | You are currently riding at 74% of your FTP! |
0:24:00 | 0:00:06 | You are doing great! |
0:25:00 | 0:00:06 | Keep up the pace! |
0:27:00 | 0:00:07 | Well done, the resistance is now decreasing. |
0:29:00 | 0:00:06 | Only one more pyramid to go. |
0:30:00 | 0:00:08 | Now you can have a bit of a rest before the start of the final pyramid. |
0:31:00 | 0:00:10 | It is ideal to include this type of training in your training schedule at least once a month to see some improvement. |
0:32:00 | 0:00:07 | You should be in a stable position, no rocking. |
0:32:30 | 0:00:07 | Stay relaxed, elbows slightly bent, shoulders down. |
0:33:00 | 0:00:07 | Keep a light hold on the bars and pedal in full circles. |
0:35:00 | 0:00:06 | You're riding like a pro today! |
0:37:00 | 0:00:05 | Keep going! |
0:38:50 | 0:00:06 | Stay hydrated: Drink regularly! |
0:39:10 | 0:00:06 | Ionic drink is the best opinion. |
0:42:00 | 0:00:06 | That's it, all intensity done! |
0:44:00 | 0:00:08 | Now the resistance will only decrease. This will help your body to cool down. |
0:46:00 | 0:00:06 | Pedal with a cadence that is comfortable to you. |
0:48:00 | 0:00:08 | To prevent muscle soreness, you can do some stretching after this workout. |
0:49:00 | 0:00:08 | Hope to see you at the next training session, called Endurance build up. |
