paradox963 As a loyal viewer, I can state that they answered this question last year. The videos are free to watch online - please come-in and spin :). As of my personal two cents to add, it's not so much trouble to re-visit the video page, so GCN could collect some AD funds and be able to...... (blablabla about making great video... cycling community..... peace... prosperity and some social responsibility BS...)
Also a loyal viewer, but it's kinda hard and dangerous to take these videos out on the open road. I am all for them making money as I love the channel and I know it's not cheap to produce. I have gone in and made garmin workouts for some of there other training videos that take place out on the road. I just wondered if they have ever posted them as I am sure they have made them for the use of the videos.
GCN crew another great video, you talk about % of FTP but how about sticking up a graphic to indicate % of FTP on the screen....... ?? thanks a million :)
These videos are fantastic and so well presented. I have an entry level turbo trainer and no power meter, so the information given out regarding effort level and feel is invaluable. So thanks for considering all abilities and income levels. Keep up the good work.
Great video - thanks a lot! As many of the other comments indicate, I too had a problem with the ads coming up during the hard intervals. I watch most of your other videos as well and would be willing to sit through two minutes of ads on those to have no ads on the training videos. I would appreciate it if you could do something about getting the ads out of the training videos. Thanks and keep up the great work!
I'm an old guy, 68 years youngish. Have ever you considered doing some workout videos for cyclists who are not 20 to 40 years of age. I love the workouts but find that even though I'm in pretty decent shape, I can't drive through they way you guys do. I'm not talking water aerobics or chair exercises, but taking into consideration 80 rpms instead of 90 to 100 for 3 minutes. Just a thought.
Great session! An hour-long session of Over/Under would be great--I just back up to about 18:30 and repeat the second group for three total blocks. Great workout!
Thanks man, so happy to have a partner and hard ride on tho -40 C day in Corner Brook Newfoundland. If any of you guys would like some tough rides and beautiful scenery come join me in the summer. We have great terrain for both road and mountain bike.
The O/U intervals I've been recommended are 85-90% FTP for under and 100% FTP for over, but the intervals are 4mins for under and 1 min over, should I do as per this video instead? any advice?
We tackled assembling the bike as a family project. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxzg0clhbtRf2gGxPkVETFKJJKGqdsorQu The package is heavy, but I have 2 teen boys that were able to move it. The written instructions were great- we didn't need to watch the videos, but it was good knowing that the option was there if we needed it. After we were able to get it set up, the boys each rode 3 miles and I rode 8 and the bike stayed quiet. The display is easy to reset, and you can put it on whichever setting you are using (time, distance, calories, etc). I will say that my butt is a little sore from the seat, but that could be because I haven't rode in a while. While it is comfortable for me, it was not comfortable with the seat position for my friend (could not move the seat back far enough and he slightly looked like a kid riding a tricycle that he had outgrown). He also said that the seat hurt his manly parts. We are going to look for a different seat that will be compatible with this bike for him.I did purchase the Wahoo Cadence sensor and strapped it to the crank of one of the pedals. This will sync with my Apple Watch, iPhone and will import data in to my Health app. Wahoo does have other sensors available other than cadence. I can also keep either my phone or my iPad on the display and they both feel pretty secure.
I have resisted indoor training for years but after a bike wreck and in recovery - all I could buy was a mag trainer with speed sensor, and zwift seems cool but yet another subscription. I'd rather just ride along with Dan. Thanks!
Great session. However, I am new to using my kickr. Should I set s single resistance (ERG) then alter my cadence only. Or do I need to up cadence and the ERG?
Brilliant workout, tough, tough, tough session but hey how are you able to speak sentences whilst doing this, I doubt you are putting in the effort 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Redster he expresses the entirety of the workout in terms of % ftp: block 1 is 4x ( 30s @ 110% FTP & 120s @ 90-95% FTP ). 5 minutes easy, then block 2 is 5x ( same as block 1 ). You shouldn't be overly concerned about the warmup, you should just do what you need to do to warmup. If you don't know what that is, put it somewhere mid zone 2 @ 90rpm and allow the cadence to dictate the spikes in effort.
Can someone supply me with a calculation how to do the % of FTP and the effort levels in relation to heart rate? I don't have a power meter and use a spinning bike
Great videos guys. I download them off UA-cam then use them in Golden Cheetah that way I get no ads. The only thing missing is any erg files. Any chance of those or does anyone have an idea how to create them from the videos?
I don’t have a power meter and am just going by feel. It’s a skill in itself to get the intensity right - I think I went too easy in the beginning and ramped it up a bit towards the end.
I DO like your workouts (Dan being the favorite) but, whilst I'm no superstar (FTP=300W@76kg), this Under/Over session is well below the necessary training stress required for adaptation! I KNOW my FTP from lab tests AND 20 minute tests AND RAMP tests etc, so, dialing in the numbers, I'm doing 30s@330W and 2mins@280W. Hard at the time, yes, but its only a TSS of 52. I can actually do twice that amount!! (even 60s@330W) I thought I'd found a get fit easy routine???
Great sessions, especially in the Dolomites! I'm 69, lifelong keen road cyclist, now have heart problem (Atrial Fib) so exercise limited. Is an e-bike the answer? If so, what type, without spending a fortune! Any ideas gratefully received.
GCN, please please please bring back Dan Lloyd. His sessions are tough and so much more interesting than the talkalong sessions that GCN currently have. This is the type of session that is so badly missed by GCN now. A hard cycle and not a lightweight session. Thanks Dan. Miss Matt Stephens and Si Richardson as well
Really great workout. I really enjoyed it. Like some others on here I got hit with an ad that I was unable to skip right during a 30 second 110% FTP effort. I understand that you guys need ads and I don't mind them but is it possible to dictate where they are placed in the video? Perhaps during recovery? Or is it possible to have ads on all your videos except workout videos? Still a great workout and I worked harder than I would have since I kept up the power through the ad. Cheers all around.
I really like these GCN training videos with road footage and would like to see some longer ones. Also, I'd like to see them add-free. Ever thought of having a subscription service via your own app (like sufferfest). i'm not really interested in paying youtube to go add-free.
Great video and super work out! But, 4 ads in less than 40' is way too much and no good at all, if that happens again won't watch it, neither use it to work out, again, sorry about that 🤷♂️
Woweee Dan you certainly pack a punch! Might have snuck in a little break at the start of those first blocks it was really a jolt to the system and I need to pause and gather my courage. This form of trying to me is a great test of mental durability as well. Your tips of focusing every few seconds on your exertion and keep the upper body still helped me maximize the effort in the last few minutes of the 2nd set. Some serious fun, best way to spend a Friday afternoon. Thanks from the South West United States! Superb
Guys love your content. Just one small problem. When playing these on mobile some of the adverts come up during the over interval. I know you have to pay the bills but at least could they pop up during the under part so at least it doesn't hurt as much!
Brutal! 🤕 I know I put it on myself, but Damn! Great session. Those long 2 minutes just under were phenomenal. 👊🏾💥 There were lotsof interruptions from ads that popped up a lot during this session that took me off but otherwise great workout. I enjoyed it. Looking forwards to the next one. 🙌🏾
Great session, as usual. i feel in the good hands with a real pro. thank you so much Mister DAN LOYD. It's always a big pleasure to have a training session with you. thank you for your shares. Great job! Many Thanks for the great team of GCN
Particularly enjoyed this session. Sometimes the warm-ups are a bit light for the session but this one was well matched and then it is fascinating to hop in and out of the red zone with small changes in effort. I only have a basic turbo and no telemetry but managed to find the right level under expert and enthusiastic tutelage. Thank you - really appreciate these sessions
I love your training videos, but I get motion sick from the POV versions. Can you make them available in two forms? One in the studio and one on the road?
Did you guys shoot the video? Do you know the best real life videos that I can use with a Wahoo Kickr? I have tried Kinomap and Fulgaz, but the video playback always gets stuck or has problems. I used to have the Tacx Fortius and miss the real life videos. I never had a problem with that setup. Thanks
How did you find this session? Let us know in the comments below
I found it by looking at your play list :)
Same here. Looking forward for your new work outs, so I am used to look for it.
Do you guys ever put these up as garmin workout files?

Read at the start of the third above FTP interval an advertisement popped up on both sets. Not cool! No advertisements during training videos.
GCN crew another great video, you talk about % of FTP but how about sticking up a graphic to indicate % of FTP on the screen....... ?? thanks a million :)
These videos are fantastic and so well presented. I have an entry level turbo trainer and no power meter, so the information given out regarding effort level and feel is invaluable. So thanks for considering all abilities and income levels. Keep up the good work.
The adverts were in a really bad time (right in the middle of the 30 sec efforts) otherwise 👍🏼
Found this out today, shame because I feel like it takes away from the channel. But ad-block it will have to be! :-(
Free added difficulty factor. ;)
Great video - thanks a lot!
As many of the other comments indicate, I too had a problem with the ads coming up during the hard intervals.
I watch most of your other videos as well and would be willing to sit through two minutes of ads on those to have no ads on the training videos.
I would appreciate it if you could do something about getting the ads out of the training videos.
Thanks and keep up the great work!
How about ERG files to match your training workouts?
Hi guys, hate to be negative but you need to sort out the mid-workout advertisement breaks.... please

This session is brilliant. Watch out for the end when fatigue really sets in. So dont get too cocky at the beginning 😊
Great session! An hour-long session of Over/Under would be great--I just back up to about 18:30 and repeat the second group for three total blocks. Great workout!
Can’t believe in the description they suggest five sets. Two looked bad enough.
Thanks man, so happy to have a partner and hard ride on tho -40 C day in Corner Brook Newfoundland. If any of you guys would like some tough rides and beautiful scenery come join me in the summer. We have great terrain for both road and mountain bike.

Hey @canyon_bikes, I thought you cant use your bikes on trainers? What's this?
I was about to say the same. What gives @GCN, @Canyon?
Yeah right! I just saw on Movistars instagram doing the same. So if regular people do it, it voids the warranty.

No ads during the session please 😁
Brilliant for the Alps thanks - can you do something for the Fred WHitton training - great lockdown goal for us Brits. Thanks for all the inspiration
Is your FTP and FTW the same? Same score? I weigh 183 pounds and got a FTW of 286. #askGCN
Brilliant workout, tough, tough, tough session but hey how are you able to speak sentences whilst doing this, I doubt you are putting in the effort 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Please can you have a % of ftp for these as well as effort level. Because effort level is very subjective.

my bad, didn't watch the whole thing
Can someone supply me with a calculation how to do the % of FTP and the effort levels in relation to heart rate? I don't have a power meter and use a spinning bike
@@koenbouts tombell.co/cycling-training-zones/ this helped me. (bit late)
During the quarantine, I've rented a indoor cycle from the studio I go to and watching youtube exercise videos. This has been the best workout so far.
Great videos guys. I download them off UA-cam then use them in Golden Cheetah that way I get no ads. The only thing missing is any erg files. Any chance of those or does anyone have an idea how to create them from the videos?

Session was great but ruined by the fecking adverts, get rid of them...
This is a painful and evil workout! It's the second or third time I've done this one. Great stuff!
Hi GCN! Your videos are awesome! :D
Did I really get an ad in the middle of an effort! ended up having to do twice as much on that one
I DO like your workouts (Dan being the favorite) but, whilst I'm no superstar (FTP=300W@76kg), this Under/Over session is well below the necessary training stress required for adaptation!

hey look bald wolverine
Please can you have a % of ftp for these as well as effort level. Because effort level is very subjective.
Goran Bralo he does tell you % ftp for the workout. Don't be concerned about the warmup, just do what your body needs to warm up.
Thanks, i didn't watch the whole video
Great sessions, especially in the Dolomites! I'm 69, lifelong keen road cyclist, now have heart problem (Atrial Fib) so exercise limited. Is an e-bike the answer? If so, what type, without spending a fortune! Any ideas gratefully received.
Really a good session. Thanks GCN. Confidence inspiring before my next tennis match. - Chai Aysola
Love this video! I use it several times per week. Thanks for posting and great job GCN!
Nice one James!
Thanks - great chat to keep me focussed
GCN, please please please bring back Dan Lloyd. His sessions are tough and so much more interesting than the talkalong sessions that GCN currently have. This is the type of session that is so badly missed by GCN now. A hard cycle and not a lightweight session. Thanks Dan. Miss Matt Stephens and Si Richardson as well
Great variety. Loved the downhill part too-could feel myself going faster and the wind in my hair (except I’m bald...and inside...and with no fan).
One of the best indoor sessions!
Really great workout. I really enjoyed it. Like some others on here I got hit with an ad that I was unable to skip right during a 30 second 110% FTP effort.

More like these please. They are awesome!
I subscribe to GCN channel! Thanks Dan, I enjoy following along with your training rides - Joe in Ohio, US
That was a nasty one! Thx!👌
Woweee Dan you certainly pack a punch! Might have snuck in a little break at the start of those first blocks it was really a jolt to the system and I need to pause and gather my courage.

Hi @GlobalCyclingNetwork, thanks for uploading. Could you relate it to FTHR for those of us without power meters please.
Guys love your content. Just one small problem. When playing these on mobile some of the adverts come up during the over interval. I know you have to pay the bills but at least could they pop up during the under part so at least it doesn't hurt as much!
Hard to complete. But great.
"...It's thee definition of Hi-definition..." Hahaha! Dude - don't make me laugh in intervals!
Love these workouts - training for a century ride.
Love these training videos..especially use these through the winter time (as well as Summer time )on my training rollers...thanks GCN🚴🏽👍
Brutal! 🤕 I know I put it on myself, but Damn! Great session. Those long 2 minutes just under were phenomenal. 👊🏾💥 There were lotsof interruptions from ads that popped up a lot during this session that took me off but otherwise great workout. I enjoyed it. Looking forwards to the next one. 🙌🏾
Absolutely as promised - The last 5 min interval is exactly as described - Breathing ok, legs burning and mentally struggling -I love it !
Great session, as usual. i feel in the good hands with a real pro. thank you so much Mister DAN LOYD. It's always a big pleasure to have a training session with you.
thank you for your shares. Great job! Many Thanks for the great team of GCN

I love your training videos, but I get motion sick from the POV versions. Can you make them available in two forms? One in the studio and one on the road?
Thank you GCN - another fantastic, extra challenging ride!!
Started this one two years ago and still going. Just love it. Any there any plans to do more mountain climbs in the near future?
thx Dan & GCN !!
Good winter warm up.
Thanks GCN. It's a reminder that I really should do an FTP test, to end all the guesstimating.
Great. I do this once a week 💪
Awesome training. It’s so different to train with actual bike riders than training with spinning instructors.
would be a great Video but the yellow spinning cadence symbols give me motion sickness and are very annoying :(
lockdown thanks !
This is my favourite type of cycling, I can just not pedal and I fly up the hills.
I was about to quit two times
One of my favs❤
Excellent session, it gives you a very realistic feeling of climb, nice place by the way
You guys should make a race-level session titled "This One Goes to Eleven"
Great work Dan, but be nice to have some idea of gears or is this a personal thing as well as resistance settings & cadence at effort levels. Thanks
great video and love the soundtrack ...any clues as to the tunes particularly the track about 5 mins in that is repeated a few times
super fun
Painful
Thank you so much. The mountains were fantastic.
Great work out had-helps to get the effort out when seeing someone else suffering also....! 😝
Hey! wth!!! Lasty changed his bike three times no??
Great vid - too many ads for training breaks up rhythm
thanks guys, keep these coming. I use these for training when the rain is out.
Another great workout GCN. The video up the hill was quite mesmerising and took my mind off some of the pain. As usual, enjoyed finish it ;)
Great to hear you enjoyed it Mobius
what equipment do I need to do indoor training like this, please?
Did you guys shoot the video? Do you know the best real life videos that I can use with a Wahoo Kickr? I have tried Kinomap and Fulgaz, but the video playback always gets stuck or has problems. I used to have the Tacx Fortius and miss the real life videos. I never had a problem with that setup. Thanks
Rouvy on a new iPhone is as solid as it gets
Is it possible to get the artist's name for the music?!
One of my favourite training videos so far. Great job Dan !!
Hey Dan what was your average wattage through the harder intervals?
At least dan doesn’t sand bag these work outs like Si.
Wow my legs are on fire 🔥. Awesome workout 💪
Great, great session. i do it for the second time in one week. thank you so much.
Need to remove the adverts as it ruins the experience
Awesome workout Dan! Thanks GCN
Tem como traduzir pra português ?
Thanks for the video...was a tough one.
Training for an Ironman and these are great to fit into my interval sessions
Thanks Dan the man for a great ride. Let's do it again soon!
Are there going to be any more training sessions done?
GRAN ENTRENO, COMO SIEMPRE CRACK
i am looking forward to session for ftp test
Great ride - thank you guys!
Very creative with the video
Another good one! Thanks Dan!
