Are Intervals More Effective At The Beginning Or End Of A Zone 2 Workout? (#230)
Manage episode 460005313 series 2617226
OVERVIEW
Should you perform your interval efforts at the beginning or end of your workout? In most cases, doing hard efforts early, when you are freshest, increases power output and time-at-intensity for those intervals. In this episode, Coach Adam Pulford provides the rationale behind this structure and shares the three specific scenarios when he has athletes ride in Zone 2 for most of the ride and execute hard efforts at the end.
TOPICS COVERED
- Why you should do intervals in the first third of your workout.
- How early intervals improve Zone 2 training effect afterward
- Intervals at the end for competition specificity
- Intervals at the end for fatigue resistance training/durability
- Interval timing advice for Time-Crunched Athlete
