Description of workout

Today you have a short sprint workout. This workout consists of short sprints that will improve your finishing speed.

Warm-up (10 minutes)
Easy pedaling with a slightly higher cadence (100 - 110 rpm) to warm up your body.

Main part
The main part will start with a tempo interval (5 minutes) to increase the temperature of the muscles and activate the cardiovascular system. Then there are three sets of sprints to improve your absolute speed. Try to perform as high as possible on all repetitions.

Cool down (15 minutes)
Three steps rump down with slight pedaling (90 - 100 rpm) for better recovery.

0:10:10 0:00:06 Now you should feel the resistance increasing.
0:11:00 0:00:10 You should be able to talk at this level of intensity.
0:11:10 0:00:07 But you should also feel some burning in your legs.
0:13:00 0:00:10 When the sprints start: Focus on a stable position!
0:13:10 0:00:06 You can injure yourself if your posture is not good on the bike.
0:14:00 0:00:05 First sprint in one minute, get ready!

0:21:40 0:00:07 You have almost the same intervals ahead of you as before.

0:28:30 0:00:07 Now only the last set of intervals awaits you.
0:29:00 0:00:10 These intervals are the same as the second set of intervals you just rode.
0:29:10 0:00:10 Only difference is that those you will be riding in a few seconds will be 5 seconds longer.
0:30:30 0:00:07 Check your position on the bike and get ready for action!
