    Best stuff I've watched on UA-cam for ages, absolute legend, love your dedication. Smash it '25 Tyler, you are superb. I've watched nearly all of them this morning before training. Keep them coming.

    Good advice particularly about consistency and Vo2 I always use 40/20s and similar for the hill climb season.I think you should never find your self in a situation in a race that you haven't practiced in Training

      @tylerhannay  14 днів тому +2

      start at 4x10 and increase the length of the intervals so 4x15 and so on, to increase total time

    today I did a nice workout for my FTP
    4 times this block:
    6min @ 75% FTP
    3min @ 100% FTP
    1min @ 115% FTP
    1min @ 125% FTP

      @ ill do a half distance in Rapperswil (Switzerland). It has 1100m elevation so i need to invest some time in my bike prep. The full distance later in the year is in Thun, also Switzerland. I do live there. I believe it has the most beautiful bike course possible. The scenery is just fantastic. But it has 2200m elevation. So i must not underestimate that :-)

      @ yes i agree with your points. However i dont need a coach at my young age of 69. I focus like your with exercises over Vo2 max a lot to keep it in the high 50’s, low resting rate especially needed when climbing long hills in Spain
